By successfully bringing together beauty, wellness, aesthetics, health management, and lifestyle services within a single destination, the group has established a new benchmark for one-stop beauty and wellness services across ASEAN.

From a Small Beauty Studio to an Industry Benchmark

Founded by Dr. Vivian at the age of 15 as an eyebrow embroidery specialist, VBH Group began as a modest 900-square-foot beauty studio operated by a team of just five people. Through years of continuous learning, practical experience, and a commitment to raising professional standards, the business steadily expanded into one of Malaysia’s leading integrated beauty and wellness groups.

Today, VBH Group operates a 7,800-square-foot flagship integrated beauty and wellness centre supported by 56 professional team members, offering 138 specialised services across 10 professional domains.

The centre offers services covering semi-permanent eyebrow embroidery, skincare, facial treatments, body contouring, health management, aesthetics, haircare, nail services, professional makeup, photography, spa therapies, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Its TCM services include pulse diagnosis, acupuncture, therapeutic massage, and cupping therapy, allowing customers to enjoy beauty enhancement and preventive wellness within a single integrated environment.

Guided by its philosophy of “Happiness Through Beauty,” VBH Group believes beauty and wellness should work hand in hand to help individuals look better, feel healthier, and live with greater confidence.

Redefining the One-Stop Beauty Experience

Rather than viewing beauty and health as separate disciplines, VBH Group integrates both into a seamless customer experience.

Its one-stop concept enables customers to receive beauty treatments, wellness therapies, health consultations, and aesthetic services conveniently in one location, reflecting today’s increasingly holistic approach to self-care.

Beyond providing convenience, the company’s philosophy is that true beauty begins with inner happiness and overall wellbeing, encouraging customers to care for both their appearance and their health as part of a balanced lifestyle.

The achievement was later re-presented at VBH Group’s flagship SS2 integrated beauty and wellness centre during the company’s 8th Anniversary Celebration, commemorating both the record achievement and the group’s continued growth within Malaysia’s beauty and wellness industry.

The recognition was proudly received by Dr. Vivian, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of VBH Group, in acknowledgement of her visionary leadership in transforming VBH Group from a small beauty studio into one of Malaysia’s leading integrated beauty and wellness groups, offering the highest number of beauty and wellness services within a single facility.

The celebration was further graced by the presence of renowned Hong Kong and Malaysian artistes, including Derek Kwok, Elaine Yiu, Angie Cheong, Michael Tao, Hera Chan, Benjamin Chow, Mok Ka Tim, and Chan Kwok Fung, who joined the company’s milestone celebration.

“Receiving this ASEAN Records recognition is truly meaningful for us because it reflects the years of dedication behind our journey. We never imagined receiving such recognition. We simply stayed true to our original mission and continued serving every customer with sincerity and passion.

At VBH Group, we believe beauty is not only about appearance. It is also about health, happiness, confidence, and inner wellbeing. That is why we created a one-stop centre where customers can conveniently enjoy beauty, wellness, and health services all in one place.

More importantly, I hope every customer leaves VBH feeling happier, more confident, and knowing they are supported by a caring community that genuinely wants the best for them.

I would also like to sincerely thank all our customers, families, shareholders, business partners, and team members for their trust and support. This recognition belongs to all of them. We will continue embracing new technologies, improving our professional standards, and delivering even better beauty and wellness experiences in the future.”

Raising the Standard of Beauty and Wellness in ASEAN

This achievement reflects the growing demand for integrated beauty and wellness destinations that provide comprehensive, customer-centred experiences.

By successfully offering 138 professional services across 10 specialised domains within a single 7,800-square-foot facility, VBH Group has established a benchmark for innovation, operational excellence, and service integration within the beauty and wellness industry.

Beyond celebrating operational scale, this recognition reflects the continued evolution of Malaysia’s beauty industry towards integrated wellness.

Farm Price Holdings Berhad Recognised by ASEAN Records for Pioneering Malaysia’s First Publicly Listed Fresh Vegetable Supply Chain Integrating Cold-Chain Logistics and Halal-Certified Value-Added Processing

ASEAN Records is proud to officially recognise Farm Price Holdings Berhad for achieving the milestone:

First Publicly-Listed Fresh-Vegetable Importer and Exporter Integrating Self-Operated Cold-Chain Storage and Halal-Certified Value-Added Processing (listed May 2024; Singapore ~40% of turnover; 149,548 sq ft built-up & 66,845 sq ft refrigerated on completion; 29,669 pallets/year; ISO 9001:2015, GMP & HACCP accredited; founded 2004)

This recognition celebrates Farm Price Holdings Berhad’s leadership in modernising the fresh produce supply chain through the integration of import and export operations, self-operated cold-chain logistics, and halal-certified value-added processing, setting a new benchmark for the fresh vegetable industry in Malaysia.

Advancing an Integrated Fresh Produce Supply Chain

Founded in 2004, Farm Price Holdings Berhad has grown from a fresh vegetable trading business into an integrated agricultural supply chain company serving wholesalers, retailers, food service operators, and export markets. In May 2024, the company achieved another significant milestone by becoming Malaysia’s first publicly listed company specialising in the import and export of fresh vegetables while integrating its own cold-chain infrastructure and halal-certified processing operations. The company’s listing on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia marked an important step in its long-term growth strategy.

Today, Farm Price sources fresh vegetables from both local farms and international suppliers before distributing them efficiently across domestic and overseas markets. Approximately 40% of its annual turnover is contributed by exports to Singapore, reflecting the company’s strong regional market presence.

Strengthening Food Quality Through Cold-Chain Infrastructure

A key strength of Farm Price lies in its investment in dedicated cold-chain logistics and storage facilities that help preserve freshness, minimise food waste, and maintain product quality throughout transportation and distribution.

Upon completion of its latest facility expansion, the company will operate a purpose-built integrated hub comprising approximately 149,548 square feet of built-up area, including 66,845 square feet of refrigerated cold-room facilities, with an annual handling capacity of approximately 29,669 pallets.

Beyond logistics, Farm Price also undertakes halal-certified value-added processing, including cleaning, cutting, sorting, and packaging fresh vegetables according to customer requirements. These operations are supported by internationally recognised ISO 9001:2015, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) certifications, reinforcing the company’s commitment to food safety, operational quality, and supply chain reliability.

Supporting Food Security and Regional Trade

As demand for fresh, safe, and traceable food continues to increase across the region, Farm Price plays an important role in strengthening agricultural supply chains between Malaysia and neighbouring markets.

Its integrated business model enables greater supply consistency, improved inventory management, and enhanced food quality throughout the distribution process while supporting both local agricultural producers and international trade partners.

By investing in infrastructure, quality assurance systems, and value-added processing capabilities, the company contributes to greater food security while improving the efficiency of fresh produce distribution throughout the ASEAN region.

A Milestone Moment of Recognition

The ASEAN Records certificate was officially presented on 28 June 2026.

The recognition was proudly received by Dr. Lawrence Tiong Lee Chian, Managing Director of Farm Price Holdings Berhad, in acknowledgement of his leadership in building Malaysia’s first publicly listed integrated fresh vegetable supply chain combining import and export operations, cold-chain logistics, and halal-certified value-added processing.

The presentation was witnessed by Hong Kong celebrity MasterChef Hugo Leung Man To.

Voices of Leadership

Reflecting on the recognition, Dr. Lawrence Tiong Lee Chian, Managing Director of Farm Price Holdings Berhad, shared:

“This ASEAN Records recognition reflects the dedication of our entire team over the past two decades in building a trusted and integrated fresh produce supply chain. We believe that delivering fresh vegetables goes beyond logistics. It requires continuous investment in infrastructure, food safety, quality assurance, and innovation.

Becoming Malaysia’s first publicly listed company in our sector while integrating cold-chain facilities and halal-certified value-added processing is an important milestone, but it is also a responsibility. We remain committed to strengthening regional food supply chains, supporting sustainable agricultural growth, and delivering safe, high-quality fresh produce to customers across Malaysia and beyond.”

Setting New Standards for Fresh Produce Distribution

This achievement reflects the growing importance of integrated supply chain management in ensuring food quality, safety, and distribution efficiency throughout the agricultural sector.

By combining public market governance, modern cold-chain infrastructure, internationally recognised quality certifications, and regional export capabilities, Farm Price Holdings Berhad has established a benchmark for the future development of the fresh produce industry in ASEAN.

About Farm Price Holdings Berhad

Megaklinik Dr Suffian (MKDS) Recognised by ASEAN Records for Achieving the Largest Annual Participation in a Single-Clinic, Internationally Certified, Doctor-Supervised Medical Weight Loss Programme

Four people in business attire pose with framed awards at an event, standing in front of a banner with a large portrait on the right.

ASEAN Records is proud to officially recognise Megaklinik Dr Suffian – MKDS (HQ) Sdn. Bhd. for achieving the milestone:

Largest Annual Participation in a Single-Clinic, Internationally Certified, Doctor-Supervised Medical Weight Loss Programme with Integrated Customised Intervention Protocol (2,630 Participants in 2025; 5 Certified Supervising Doctors; 3 Care Domains; 5 Customised Intervention Variables)

This recognition highlights MKDS’s leadership in advancing evidence-based medical weight management through structured, physician-supervised interventions that combine clinical care, lifestyle modification, and personalised treatment planning.

Advancing Medical Weight Management Through Structured Clinical Intervention

As obesity and lifestyle-related diseases continue to pose growing public health challenges across the region, the need for effective and medically supervised weight management programmes has become increasingly important.

Developed by Megaklinik Dr Suffian (MKDS), the programme adopts a comprehensive and personalised approach to weight management, integrating clinical assessment, behavioural modification, nutritional guidance, and ongoing medical supervision. Unlike conventional weight loss programmes that often rely on generic recommendations, MKDS utilises customised intervention protocols tailored to individual patient needs.

The programme is supervised by a team of five certified doctors and incorporates three core care domains, supported by five customised intervention variables, allowing treatment plans to be adapted according to each participant’s health profile, lifestyle factors, metabolic condition, and weight management goals.

In 2025 alone, the programme recorded participation from 2,630 individuals, establishing a significant benchmark for a single-clinic medical weight management programme within the region.

MKDS views obesity not merely as a weight-related concern, but as a chronic medical condition closely associated with diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, joint disorders, fertility challenges, and reduced quality of life.

As such, the programme incorporates comprehensive medical supervision, metabolic risk assessment, body composition evaluation, muscle mass preservation strategies, lifestyle interventions, and personalised treatment planning to support sustainable health outcomes.

This clinical approach reflects the growing recognition that effective obesity management requires evidence-based medical care rather than short-term weight reduction solutions.

A Holistic Approach to Sustainable Health Outcomes

Founded by Dr. Suffian Sani Sayuti, MKDS has built its reputation on delivering evidence-based, lifestyle-centred healthcare solutions. The organisation’s philosophy extends beyond weight reduction, focusing on long-term health improvement through preventive medicine, metabolic health optimisation, and patient empowerment.

Through structured programmes that combine clinical intervention, behavioural coaching, nutritional support, and long-term monitoring, MKDS has helped thousands of individuals work towards sustainable weight management and improved overall wellbeing.

This integrated approach reflects the growing shift towards personalised healthcare, where treatment strategies are designed around individual patient needs rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.

Expanding Access to Personalised Healthcare

The recognition coincided with the grand opening of MKDS Putrajaya, the organisation’s flagship clinic located at IOI Resort City, Putrajaya.

Spanning approximately 914 square metres (3,000 square feet), the facility was designed as a blueprint for holistic, patient-centred healthcare, integrating preventive medicine, personalised treatment, health education, and clinical monitoring under one roof.

More than a conventional clinic, MKDS Putrajaya serves as a healthcare hub that connects clinical expertise, health monitoring technologies, and patient empowerment initiatives to support healthier communities.

In addition to its signature medically supervised weight management programmes, the clinic provides general medical consultations, chronic disease management services, health screening programmes, and corporate healthcare solutions.

The expansion reflects MKDS’s commitment to making evidence-based healthcare and medical weight management services more accessible to communities throughout Malaysia.

Building Clinical Excellence in Obesity Care

A key pillar of MKDS’s success is its investment in medical expertise and continuous professional development.

Beyond the five certified supervising doctors directly involved in the record-recognised programme, the organisation is supported by a broader network of doctors who undergo specialised training in obesity management, metabolic health, diabetes care, preventive medicine, and lifestyle-related disease intervention.

Through ongoing participation in professional education programmes, international conferences, and clinical training initiatives, MKDS continues to strengthen its capabilities in delivering evidence-based obesity care aligned with evolving global medical standards.

This commitment helps ensure that patients receive safe, structured, and medically guided treatment throughout their healthcare journey.

A Milestone Moment of Recognition

The ASEAN Records certificate was officially presented on 6 April 2026 during the grand opening ceremony of MKDS Putrajaya.

The recognition was proudly received by Dr. Suffian Sani Sayuti, Founder of Megaklinik Dr Suffian, together with Nuraishah Hanani Binti Abdul Ghani, Managing Director of Megaklinik Dr Suffian, in acknowledgement of their leadership in developing one of the region’s largest doctor-supervised medical weight management programmes.

The presentation was witnessed by YAB Dato’ Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Bin Hamidi, Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia and Minister of Rural and Regional Development (Menteri Kemajuan Desa dan Wilayah).

Voices of Leadership

Reflecting on the recognition, Dr. Suffian Sani Sayuti, Founder of MKDS, shared:

“This recognition represents more than a milestone for MKDS. It reflects the trust placed in us by thousands of individuals who have chosen to begin their health transformation journey with our team.

At MKDS, we believe obesity is not a cosmetic issue. It is a chronic medical condition that requires proper medical assessment, personalised intervention, and long-term support.

Our focus is not simply helping patients lose weight, but helping them achieve better metabolic health, prevent future complications, and improve their overall quality of life through evidence-based medical care.

We remain committed to advancing personalised healthcare solutions while strengthening awareness that preventive healthcare and early intervention are essential for building a healthier society.”

Setting New Standards for Preventive Healthcare in ASEAN

This ASEAN Records recognition reflects the growing importance of clinically supervised weight management programmes in addressing obesity, metabolic disorders, and lifestyle-related health conditions.

By combining medical expertise, personalised intervention protocols, and long-term patient support, MKDS has demonstrated how structured healthcare programmes can contribute meaningfully to preventive medicine and public health outcomes.

The achievement establishes a new benchmark for medical weight management services within ASEAN while reinforcing the role of innovation, clinical governance, and patient-centred care in modern healthcare delivery.

As demand for obesity management, diabetes prevention, and lifestyle-focused healthcare continues to increase, MKDS aims to further expand access to medically supervised health programmes throughout Malaysia.

The organisation is also exploring future regional and international expansion opportunities as part of its long-term vision of bringing Malaysian healthcare expertise to wider global audiences, with aspirations to establish an international presence in the coming years.

About Megaklinik Dr Suffian (MKDS)

This recognition highlights a major achievement in real estate professional development, demonstrating the scale, consistency, and impact of PropNex Realty’s training ecosystem in nurturing high-performing real estate professionals across the region.

Setting a New Benchmark in Real Estate Training

The record-breaking achievement was accomplished through Advance Sales Techniques (AST) – Millionaire Mastery, PropNex Malaysia’s flagship sales mastery programme designed to equip real estate negotiators with high-performance strategies and practical industry expertise.

Held over three consecutive days from 5 to 7 May 2026 at the Connexion Conference & Event Centre (The Vertical), Kuala Lumpur, the programme brought together 850 paid participants in a single seating session, making it one of the largest professionally paid real estate training programmes conducted in the region.

The programme also featured a panel of 23 millionaire trainers and achievers sharing practical insights, strategies, and real-world experiences aimed at elevating professional standards within the industry.

Building High-Performance Real Estate Professionals

AST (Advance Sales Techniques) was developed as a structured training platform focused on helping real estate professionals strengthen sales capabilities, client engagement, negotiation skills, and long-term business growth.

The curriculum covers key areas including:

  • Emotional Selling
  • Effective Marketing Strategies
  • Buyer and Seller Qualification
  • Open Listing Strategies
  • Advanced Negotiation Techniques

Built upon the strong training foundation of PropNex Singapore, the programme is led by Alan Lim, Co-Founder and Director of PropNex Singapore, whose methodologies have consistently produced top-performing agents across the region.

Transforming Agents into Trusted Property Consultants

Beyond sales performance, the AST programme focuses on reshaping the role of real estate negotiators into trusted property consultants who provide long-term value to clients and consumers.

Through continuous learning, mentorship, and empowerment, PropNex Malaysia aims to equip negotiators with deeper market understanding, enabling them to guide buyers and sellers towards informed property decisions rather than transactional purchases.

This approach reflects the company’s broader vision of elevating professionalism within the industry while helping the public better understand property ownership, investment, and long-term wealth planning.

Cultivating Millionaire Achievers Through Training Excellence

A defining feature of the AST programme is its proven ability to nurture high-performing real estate professionals and cultivate millionaire achievers within the industry.

Since its launch in Malaysia in 2019, AST has completed 18 successful editions, establishing itself as one of the region’s most recognised real estate training platforms. This latest edition brought together 54 millionaire achievers on-site, reflecting the strength of the AST ecosystem and its ability to attract high-performing real estate professionals from across the industry.

This continued growth reflects the increasing demand for structured, large-scale professional training within the real estate sector, as agencies and negotiators seek stronger systems, mentorship, and sustainable development pathways.

A Milestone Moment of Recognition

The ASEAN Records certificate was officially presented on 7 May 2026 at the Connexion Conference & Event Centre (The Vertical), Kuala Lumpur.

The recognition was certified and received by Marcus Teng, Chief Executive Officer; Alan Lim, Co-Founder and Director of PropNex Singapore; Evon Heng, Executive Director; Yuki Wan, Executive Director; and Steve Tong, Executive Director, in acknowledgement of PropNex Realty’s contribution to advancing large-scale professional training and elevating standards within the real estate industry.

Voices of Leadership

Reflecting on the recognition, Marcus Teng, CEO of PropNex Malaysia, shared:

“This recognition reflects our vision to become a market leader not only in real estate transactions, but also in talent development and professional training.

At PropNex, we focus on what we call the ‘4E’ approach — Engage, Equip, Empower, and Elevate. We engage people through learning opportunities, equip them with practical knowledge and strategies, empower them to create value for clients and consumers, and ultimately help elevate their growth and lifestyle.

AST is not simply about learning how to sell property. It is about helping negotiators become trusted consultants who can guide the public towards making informed and sustainable property decisions.

As the industry evolves, consumers increasingly seek professional advisors rather than transactional sales agents. This recognition motivates us to continue raising industry standards, strengthening professionalism, and developing real estate talents who can create long-term value for the market.”

Strengthening Professional Standards in Real Estate

This milestone underscores the increasing importance of structured education, mentorship, and skills development within the evolving real estate industry.

By bringing together experienced trainers, successful practitioners, and aspiring professionals under one platform, PropNex Realty continues to play an important role in raising industry standards while empowering agents to achieve sustainable growth.

The achievement also reflects the broader evolution of the real estate profession, where knowledge, strategy, and professional development are becoming essential pillars of long-term success.
