	He is well known for his brand of mixing strategically friendship with business, preferring to do something he passionately believes in unconditionally with his friends. That (unsustainable) approach towards business gained him tremendous camaraderie and friendships. However, the same attitude also garnered sharp criticism from among his investment peers. His investment approach was clearly demonstrated in his friendship with founders of Yee Hup; Kinta Switchgear; and especially MTrans where he helped the company in breaking into regional urban transit markets, particularly in Middle-east and South Asia entirely out of camaraderie spirit. The same applies with his friendship with [[Bufori|Bufori Motor Car]] company<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.bufori.com|publisher=Bufori Motor Cars|title=Bufori Motor Cars|year=2008|accessdate=2008-02-15}}</ref> in Kepong, Malaysia.

-	His steep investment learning curve was derived from his early Malaysian ventures that had ended in failures. That include the early days of dotcoms when he invested heavily in www.ipoh.com under Ipohcom and Ipohcom Technologies. Critics had labeled him having too emotional attachment to his hometown that clouded his otherwise cutting-edge investment judgment, typical pattern in his early ventures. His muted response to his critics saw him voted with his feet, choosing [[Penang]] and the less popular [[Kuala Terengganu]] to build his Malaysian business bases instead of Ipoh. He initiated the strategic Global Entrepreneurs Roundtable in Kuala Terengganu, together with Terengganu Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TCCCI), gathering global top entrepreneurial brain to the idyllic city for think-tank activities. He also financed his proxies in the development of high-end boutique bungalows, similar to business models he replicated in China as well as Africa. His lesser known initiatives include several extremely lucrative Private-REIT, spearheading the redevelopment of older apartments into investable quality housing stock in Kuala Lumpur, and Singapore.	+	His steep investment learning curve was derived from his early Malaysian ventures that had ended in failures.
