Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary's remarkable journey from poverty to prosperity is an inspiring tale. Born into a poor family in Malaysia in 1951, he faced adversity early on, with his family's cattle business failing. Forced to drop out of school due to financial constraints, Syed Mokhtar began as a rice trader. Despite setbacks, he ventured into various industries, including construction, plantations, engineering, and automobiles, ultimately establishing himself as a successful businessman and philanthropist, leaving a lasting legacy through the Albukhary Foundation.
