First Encounter - Tan Sri Tiong Hiew King
Tan Sri Tiong Hiew King
he sizes me up to know whether i know
how rich a sarawakian can be
first me in the mid 80s at the Rimbunan Hijau office in Jalan Mission, Sibu. I was working with the Holiday Inn Kuching and was paying a courtesy call. Holiday Inn Kuching was then the only five star hotel in Kuching.
