Ula's Nipun Mehra: Conquering Indonesia's Vast and Fast-Growing E-Commerce Market
Nipun Mehra, the Founder and CEO of Indonesia-based e-commerce firm Ula, came to entrepreneurship late in life, having first worked at Sequoia Capital, Flipkart, Pine Labs, Amazon and Boston Consulting.
The delay didn't hurt though, with Ula now counting Jeff Bezos, Prosus Ventures, Tencent and B-Capital Group among its investors, hoping to capture a portion of the $300B+ retail market in the region.
This is his story and life- and business lessons.
(This interview was part of a collaboration with CGS-CIMB and Endeavor Malaysia as part of the 'Thought Inspire' Series, filmed at the Asia School of Business, a partnership between MIT Sloan School of Management and Bank Negara Malaysia.)

Eu Yan Sang’s Richard Eu: Ensuring Success for a 144-Year-Old Traditional Chinese Medicine Brand
Richard Eu is the great-grandson of Eu Kwong Pai, who founded the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) business Eu Yan Sang, which first began in Perak, Malaysia in 1879. He has been credited not only with keeping the 144-year-old brand relevant and thriving, but also for wresting back control of the business from Lum Chang in a series of buyouts, listing (and de-listing) the company on the SGX and steering the brand into the digital age.
Like most scions of multi-generational, successful family businesses, Richard rarely appears in the public eye. Which makes his views, in this rare appearance, of issues like breaking the three-generation family curse, IPOs, motivating wealthy children and having Temasek as a shareholder all the more valuable.
(This interview was part of a collaboration with CGS-CIMB and Endeavor Malaysia as part of the 'Thought Inspire' Series, filmed at the Asia School of Business (a partnership between MIT Sloan School of Management and Bank Negara Malaysia)

From Dirt-Poor to Philanthropy: Kuan ‘Uncle Kentang’ Chee Heng
From Dirt-Poor to Philanthropy: Kuan ‘Uncle Kentang’ Chee Heng
Imagine being so poor you drink tap water to fill your stomach during recess time. Or seeing your mother give her body to the sundry shop owner in return for rice. Or the smell of your dead father as he decomposes in the living room because the family cannot afford a casket.
How does that perspective compare to so many of us who spend all our time chasing money or complaining that we don’t have enough?
So when I heard Kuan Chee Heng (aka ‘Uncle Kentang’) talk to Asha Gill on LiteFM last week I found him on the Interweb and was grateful that he agreed to an impromptu interview at Ben’s Jalan Batai.
Kuan’s story offers much-needed context in a world blind-drunk with excess, social media and greed.

However, Covid-19 has decimated her funding sources, the bulk of which hailed from the UK, which is fighting a huge war on the pandemic.

BK Lim -- The Ride of a Lifetime
Motorbike salesman BK Lim is a man I've been chasing for a long, long time, after I first heard of his monster trip from Downing Street in Penang, Malaysia, to 10, Downing Street St in London, England, where the British Prime Minister goes to work!
Spanning 25 countries, 38,000 km and completed over four months, the journey was even more incredible because it was completed on Honda 125cc motorcycles by retirees and grandfathers, all of them from Penang, in Malaysia.
The youngest, Lee Hang Chung, was 53 at the time, while the eldest, Frankie Cheah, was 69.
BK Lim himself was 62 when he completed the journey.
Listen to his story of the trip here and his next journey, from Anchorage in Alaska to Tierra Del Fuego, in Argentina, at the southernmost tip of South America.

Sydney Cake House's Jenny Chuang - From Secretary to International Baker
When I spoke to Jenny in early December of 2019, none of us knew that she would win the Ernst & Young Woman Entrepreneur of the Year.
But win it she did. And it's easy to see why -- through a combination of sheer grit, hard work and determination, Jenny Chuang has built her 'Makcik' brand into a global sales powerhouse.
Sharing the mike with her eldest daughter Carmen, this is her story.
As told to Khoo Hsu Chuang.

Ian Yoong - The Intrepid Investor
Ian Yoong, a former investment banker and current high-net worth private investor, was once a social-working introvert who worried that he wouldn’t succeed in the cutthroat world of investing and share markets.
But make it he did.
Over a wee dram of Yamazaki, he shares his tales and experiences on spotting the multibaggers, avoiding so-called ‘value traps’ and staying clear of con men who are so prevalent in the share market.
And how he enjoys life! Like drinking whiskey and buying precious watches.

But that wasn’t enough.
One of the three sons of a math teacher in a Chinese (!) school, Suhaimi eventually went beyond his initial calling as a journalist to feed the entrepreneurial instincts his dad taught him as a child.
Today, at the ripe young age of 57, his businesses span hostels, restaurants, batik design and .. releasing his own singles as a solo artiste!

Adrian Ng - Mega Fortris' Quiet Achiever
The experts say SMEs (aka small businesses) dominate economies and guess what. It’s true.
Malaysia, like most of Asia, is full of private businesses that have grown to become global giants in their fields .. without anyone knowing about them!
Mega Fortris is one of them.
Security seals are used in many industries including agriculture, airlines, logistics, healthcare, transportation, gaming, oil and gas and even in ballot boxes during elections.
Twenty three years after he and his brother started the company, Mega Fortris has 24 offices on six continents AND the backing of big global investors, like Singapore’s OCBC and Economic Development Board.
And they’re about to go big.
Really. Really. Big.

But it’s an unfolding saga. And it’s come at a price to his personal and family time. Robin talks about starting a business in his late forties and the superhuman effort needed to build a Gold unicorn.

Chandran Nair - Asia's Superman
A fierce critic of the Western model of consumption-led growth, Chandran Nair is the Founder and CEO of the Global Institute For Tomorrow (GIFT), an independent pan-Asian think tank.
He wants Asians to have a deeper understanding of global issues, including the shift of economic and political influence from the West to Asia.
This is the ASIAN century after all! And so, he feels that Malaysians and all Asians generally need to better understand the dynamic relationship between business and society and the need to reshape the rules of global capitalism so that they better reflect Asia-specific needs and limitations.
Oh.
He also thinks that the Internet is probably the world's worst invention .. That Asia is asleep at the wheel where freedom, leadership, development, prosperity, economics, democracy are concerned .. And that our attempts to ape the West in or quest to grow could well result in disaster.
