KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 30 (Bernama) — Self believe is what led to the today’s success of Malaysian-born enterpeneur, Maha Sinnathamby, who has risen as a renowned real estate developer in Australia.
Sinnathamby, who was born in Rantau, Negeri Sembilan, is currently the Chairman of Springfield Land Corporation, the master developer of the Greater Springfield in Australia.
Greater Springfield was named the world’s best master-planned city at the 61st World Congress of the International Real Estate Federation (FIABCI) in Bali last year, beating an Iskandar Malaysia project in Johore to second place.
Sinnathamby, who was inspired by the famous Indian revolutionary leader Mahatma Gandhi, said although Gandhi did not have an army, wealth and family connections to back him, he certainly changed the landscape of India’s history.
“With infinite self-belief, he (Gandhi) made the greatest empire in human history to hand over India its prized jewel to the rightful owners and he made them (British) do so with dignity,” he said in his acceptance speech here Sunday.
Sinnathamby is the award recipient for the Gopio International Renowned Enterpreneur Excellence Award 2010 for his achievement in the Greater Springfield project, which focuses on development of education and health for the local community.
GOPIO or the Global Organization of People of Indian Origin, is a global organisation engaged in promoting the well being of people of Indian origin, currently represents 22 million Indians who live outside India.
He said his parents taught him the importance of humility and put education ahead of anything else for all of his eight siblings.
“As we grew up, I realised the value of education. It is through education and education alone that you can uplift human society. Education is the currency of the future,” said Sinnathamby, who had 17 years of his early education in Malaysia and was raised in a rubber estate outside Seremban.
He associated education as the only currency that can be cashe in anywhere in the world; the only currency that is lifelong with the person; the only currency that cannot be stolen and the only currency that can increase in value with constant upgrading.
In stating this, he called on Malaysian Indians to be successful and continuously add real value to the country.
