KUALA BESUT: Growing up as an East Coast boy, Ikhasas Group managing director Tan Chee Kian has made good and built the first five-star resort in Pulau Perhentian, Terengganu, which is set to provide jobs for 480 locals.

Chee Kian said that growing up in Mentakab, Pahang, he noticed there was a lack of quality jobs and that was why youths were leaving the region in search for a better life.
