The man behind ABN


Finally the man himself has surfaced at Asian Broadcasting Network (ABN) though the market has speculated that ABN was his baby all the while. Tan Sri K.K.

There is scepticism whether the venture can take off but he is confident he can make a difference as he educates, entertains and enrich the society with ABNxcess product offering.

He spoke to business editor (news) B.K. SIDHU for the first time since ABN was conceptualised and here are the excerpts of the interview:
