Tan - everything I own is for sale !

does this include us


One of Malaysia's top 10 richest men, Tan Sri Vincent Tan, is considering disposing of some of his private investments to raise funds and support charity organisations.

"I am 61 this year. When I am nearing retirement, I will sell off more than half of my business to fund charity organisations.

"That will be ideal to give away what I have. I don't need too many businesses, but a few," Tan said

Tan, who relinquished his position as chairman of Berjaya Corp Bhd (BCorp) early last year, has pledged to donate more than half his wealth to charity organisations.

Tan said every year, he plans to give away between RM20 million and RM30 million to support those in need.

Forbes Magazine last estimated Tan's net worth at around US$1.2 billion (RM3.6 billion).

"I would like to work until I am 80 years' old to earn more money; I could give it all away. Everything I have currently is for sale provided there is a good price," Tan said.

However, he declined to elaborate on which assets he would be selling immediately.
