Innovating Traditional Poultry Farming via ClosedHouse Concept
“The demand on chicken meat rises each year which also expanded the growth of poultry industry in Malaysia. The closed-house concept is a successful innovation which maximises the poultry farm production by increasing growth rate, improve the feed conversion rate and reducing the mortality rate of chicken. This approach can also minimise dependency on workers while managing the farm systematically. These are the results when we use science to improve existing work process.” Datuk Jeffrey Ng Choon Ngee, General Manager of Chop Cheong Bee Sdn. Bhd.

In 1982, just the initials were used in a new logo with the outline of a "W" clearly seen in the mountain-like outline of an "M". "The MS stands for 'money' and 'success' while the 'W' subtly stands for 'wealth' as I have always believed a successful man is a wealthy man," Leong adds. While Mah Sing has achieved steady and undeniable success since its formation, thinning margins in plastics manufacturing in the 1990s necessitated the need for an alternative revenue stream via the property market. Today, it is Leong's desire to create a new recurring income stream for Mah Sing that led to this foray into hospitality. "The location of our land here is better suited to a business hotel," he says. "We are near the F&B outlets and marina of Puteri Harbour and Kota Iskandar, the administrative capital of the Johor government. There are also lots of factories nearby, universities, the Gleneagles Medini Hospital and, of course, Legoland. We chose Ramada as it is part of Wyndham, a big hospitality group."
