Jeffrey Cheah the rural kid made good

HE may have been born and grew up in a less known small rural town in Perak called Pusing, but Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah is no country bumpkin. In fact, he has become one of the country’s leading corporate giants and a pioneer tertiary education provider. 

Cheah is the founder and chairman of the Sunway Group, the company that has turned a piece of mining land into a thriving modern township called Bandar Sunway.
