SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEUR !

Ever dream to become a successful entrepreneur?

Most of us do have dreams to appear up in the Forbes list next to the big boys. To duplicate footsteps of successful entrepreneurs like Bil Gates, Warren Buffet, and Mark Zuckerberg. We've got to admit, most of us applaud their achievements and aspire to be them. But not to forget, our country (Malaysia) does have a few entrepreneurs who are really successful.




                                               

Now, we would like to talk about one of our very own “Malaysian Hero” who believes “EVERYONE CAN FLY”--- Tony Fernandes. This guy introduced the first ever budget no-frills airlines (Air Asia Sdn. Bhd.) in Malaysia just when travelers in the region most needed it. He, who was once an accountant, later turned to music producing while being an apprentice to the icon Sir Richard Branson. 


In recent years, he also started a hotel chain (Tune Hotels) with a no-frills concept as well.  Now the Air Asia Airlines Company is based in Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).

With all the staggering profits and revenues raked in by the TUNE group of companies, Tony Fernandes has contributed a lot to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Malaysia (in terms of taxes and services). GDP is a measurement of all the total market value of all final goods and services produce within the nation. It is including goods and services which produced by citizen or foreigner. It a monetary measure.

Besides, Tony Fernandes has also help the country in achieving Macroeconomic growth’s goals:

Full employment
