Founder’s Quote


“我已经60多岁了,心态还是20多岁,哈哈!做生意,不是万事都以利益为出发点,在商言商外,人情味比什么 都重要。” – 洪鼎良

At the ripe age of 60, Founder, Hoon Thing Leong may have seen and experienced a lot, but his youthful spirit remains unfettered. He believes that in business, it’s not all about profits and gains. For him, the value of human connection and compassion outweighs everything else.

As he puts it, “In business, aside from the transactions, the personal touch is what truly matters.”
