Diamonds are a girl's best friend, but for Datuk Meer Sadik Habib and his wife, Darin Zarida Noordin, their most precious jewel is their family.

A very welcoming and distinctly low-key Datuk Meer Sadik Habib greets me with a warm smile as I enter the sumptuous double-storied living room of his sprawling 20,000-plus square foot home. “We just got back from the Belum rainforest,” he says of the vacation with his wife, Datin Zarida Noordin, and their children – Mirzan, 22; Marissa, 20; and Mirsham, 19. “My children are back from the UK for their summer holidays, and I thought it would be nice to get out to the wilderness and bond as a family.”
