Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary

Kenal dgn Tan Sri? Sapa la tak kenai dgn beliau? beliau adalah tycoon bumi / tokoh korporat dan disenaraikan antara individu terkaya di Malaysia..meh jenguk sikit background beliau...

Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar AlBukhari berasal daripada Alor Setar, Kedah. Memulakan perniagaannya sebagai seorang pengusaha daging pada tahun 1970. Seorang yang terkenal dengan sikap rendah diri, Syed Mokhtar tidak pernah berpuas hati dengan kedudukannya dan sentiasa berusaha keras untuk memperbaiki taraf hidupnya.

Karier perniagaannya mula dikenali pada awal 90-an di Johor semasa Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin menjadi Menteri Besar. Beliau yang amat meminati bidang pengurusan dan pembangunan pelabuhan adalah salah seorang manusia yang bertanggungjawab menjadikan Pelabuhan Tanjung Pelepas Johor menjadi terkenal di mata dunia dalam tempoh yang sebentar.

Tidak lama kemudian, Syed Mokhtar telah mengasaskan Yayasan (Islam) Al-Bukhary yang telah membina dan menguruskan Muzium Kesenian Islam bernilai RM70 juta di Kuala Lumpur selain banyak menjalankan kerja-kerja amal dan kebajikan terutamanya sekitar Negeri Kedah dan Perak. 

Beliau adalah pemilik kepada perniagaan2 yang disenaraikan di atas...antara yang tidak  ada kat atas adalah Gardenia, Bina Puri Holdings Berhad  dan yang terbaru beliau dalam usaha untuk bid Jaring...

At least three parties are said to be finalising their bids to buy over Jaring Communications Sdn Bhd after several failed attempts by the Government to sell the broadband company in the past.

One of the bidders is Puncak Semangat Sdn Bhd, a company linked to Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar AlBukhary. Another company called CMC Engineering Sdn Bhd is also in the running, while a third party is said to be one that is politically-linked. (thestar, 22 March)

About 60 companies are said to have collected documents to bid for the digital terrestrial television (DTT) service that would involve the buildup of a common integrated infrastructure for all the free-to-air TV stations to migrate to provide digital TV nationwide.

Those in the know claim that most of the big boys in the telecoms sector such as Telekom Malaysia Bhd (TM), Maxis Bhd,Celcom Axiata Bhd, YTL Communications, Puncak Semangat Sdn Bhd and several vendors and suppliers had collected the documents in late-April. Most had also attended a briefing last month conducted by the industry regulator, Malaysian Communications & Multimedia Commission (MCMC).

Several local companies have partnered foreign players to tap technical expertise and the bidders have till 12pm on July 24 to make their submissions.

Celcom is working with Broadcast Australia for its bid while Puncak has New Zealand's Kordia as its technical partner.

It is believed that only a third will make their submissions, but there is also talk that some of the players may form a consortium to make a joint bid.

Players like TM, Puncak and Celcom are keen to take on the project, as most of transmission towers are owned by TM, RTM and Celcom. (thestar, 5th June)
