Equity Bottom-Up

Malaysian entrepreneur Tan Sri Dr Lim Wee Chai made his first foray into the business world by selling airconditioners at the age of 24.
Three years later, the Bachelor of Science graduate with Honours in Physics from University Malaya upgraded himself with a Master of Business Administration from Sul Ross State University in Texas.
"I learnt a lot selling air-cons in those early years, and the MBA helped me understand how to manage a business," recalled Lim, whose youthful appearance belies his 58 years.
Those marketing skills, coupled with his physics know-how, inspired Lim in 1991 to set up Top Glove Corporation Bhd with his wife Tong Siew Bee.
