Worth his weight in gold


JEWELLER Datuk Ng Teck Fong, the executive chairman of Tomei Gold and Jewellery Corporation, may now run a company with an annual turnover of about RM150mil but he will never forget his humble beginnings in a small village in Malacca. 

”I lost my father when I was four years old. I was the youngest in the family, with five brothers and five sisters. We all had to help our mother who was the sole breadwinner,” Ng recalls.
