Eric Chong meets Dato Jimmy Choo

Dato Jimmy Choo is a global icon. His name is synonymous with ultra luxury, high fashion and elegance.
"Jimmy Choo" used to be just like any other ordinary Malaysian Chinese name. However,  today it is a global brand which is synonymous with ultra luxury, high fashion and elegance.

Royalty, social elites and celebrities the world over love Jimmy Choo. Women feel sexy and sensual when they walk on four inch Jimmy Choo shoes.

I first met Dato Jimmy Choo six years ago through Dato Lewre Lew, another top Malaysian shoe designer who shines on the world stage.

It was an amazing experience. I found Dato Jimmy really down to earth and unassuming. I couldn't believe that such a big international star as Jimmy could be so friendly and approachable.

Dato Jimmy Choo is indeed the pride of Malaysia. Few Malaysians have achieved fame and stardom the way he has. A name so loved by all fashion-conscious women all over the world - he is absolutely amazing!

It is Erican College's firm belief that Malaysians can be truly globally competitive. However, to have globally competitive human capital, it takes a globally competitive education system. After all, education is the only means to laying a solid foundation for future successes.

Because of this, Dato Jimmy Choo is passionate about education and committed to molding the next generation.

Eric Chong is the Managing Director of Erican College, an institute of higher education which unleashes the full potential of young people and molds them into leaders of the design and business fields. He is also the President of Branding Association of Malaysia.

In Memoriam - Mr Yong Yoke

Mr. Yong celebrating with a student in 2005 Last week, I received news that one of my long-serving centre managers of Erican Kepong, Mr. Yong, was suffering from cancer. Mr. Yong was not just a good colleague, he was a good friend of mine. Upon hearing this news, I said to myself, "I must pay Mr. Yong a visit as soon as possible." Earlier today, I had a meeting with another colleague of mine from Erican Kepong, Ms. Soo Ken. She told me about how Mr. Yong had found out that he had pancreatic cancer just a few weeks ago and how fast he had been deteriorating ever since. I immediately detected a sense of urgency and I decided not to procrastinate any longer. As today was Friday, I said to Soo Ken, "Let's visit Mr Yong as soon as I return from traveling next Monday. We'll pray for him and give him our best wishes." However, just moments ago... I received news from Soo Ken that Mr. Yong had passed away. I was very saddened. I was saddened because I had delayed my

I am not an admirer of Robert Kiyosaki. I actually once thought I’d become a fan of this guru of investment, but after reading his book, I knew I never would be. While I can’t argue with his financial philosophy, I have a great deal of difficulty swallowing the title of his book that propelled him into worldwide fame – “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”. In this book, Robert Kiyosaki talked candidly about his two 'dads'. First, he talked about his biological dad. His biological father was a government employee who served the Hawaii Education Department faithfully his whole life. However, as his father did not retire as a person of high net worth, Robert called his birth father, 'Poor Dad'. The other 'dad' that Robert referred to in his book was an investor who used his financial finesse to earn a passive income and led a wealthy life. Robert described himself as becoming close to this mysterious man and regarding him as a fatherly figure. Due to his financial prowess, this ma
