MAY/JUNE 2024 EDITOR'S NOTE

EDITOR'S NOTE

How speedily the year is going by. Already

mid-way through and I’m certain most of us

are reflecting and pondering if the first half

of the year saw us achieve the goals’ we had

set for ourselves. Did we get the job? Did we

succeed in closing those deals? Did we get

promoted? But, could we perhaps change

the narrative and switch up the goalpost?

Did we go on that trip? When was my last

health check? Have I spent enough time

with family and friends?

Speaking of family, with Mother’s Day and

Father’s Day celebrated in the months of

May and June, we paid tribute to familial

values and the impact parents can have

in our lives. Our Cover Story is not of one,

not of two but of Dato’ Wong Keong Fook

and Datin Kok Yoke Sim of Unique Seafood

and their kids. We explore their rich history

in transforming the world of local Chinese

seafood dining in Kuala Lumpur and if they

will hand over the reins to their kids.

We have curated some sections that focus

on family. Do read Lifehacks and Sojourn

for popular family holiday destinations

and tips for when traveling with kids. To

celebrate these special occasions, do treat

your mum and dad with the beautiful

jewellery and timepieces featured in Jewels

and Chronometer and take them out for a

wonderful seafood meal at Atlantic Seafood

Restaurant in Tropicana Golf & Country

Resort which can be read about in Savour+.

Not forgetting those who wish to begin

their journey as parents, do read up about

TMC Fertility and their various services

available at Thomson Hospital in our Health

and Wellness section. Catch up on property

news and read up about Avisa Residences

in Tropicana Alam under Space as it is a

development perfect for young families

wishing to expand and grow.

With World Environment Day in June,

our Nature page features recycling hubs

located all across the Klang Valley. From

e-waste to regular recyclables, these

recycling centres are certainly building

traction and are the way forward.

With plenty more to read, it is always my

pleasure curating the pages of Tropicana

Magazine with a great variety of fun and

up-to-date topics in hopes of inspiring and

bringing a wealth of information to all.

Have a wonderful read!

We speak to the family behind

Unique Seafood Group of

Restaurants to find out

what sets them apart

In the bustling heart of Kuala Lumpur, where the aroma of fresh seafood

mingles with the city's vibrant energy, lies a culinary empire built on

passion, dedication and a commitment to excellence. Celebrating 24

years of culinary mastery, Unique Seafood Group stands as a testament

to the vision and perseverance of its founders, Datuk Wong Keong Fook

and Datin Kok Yoke Sim.

The journey of Unique Seafood Group began with humble origins.

Datuk Wong and Datin Kok, hailing from Ipoh, embarked on their

entrepreneurial venture armed with little more than a shared dream

and a determination to succeed. Arriving in Kuala Lumpur with their

newborn baby, they initially entered the seafood industry as suppliers to

hotels and restaurants. However, their ambition soon led them down a

path of innovation and distinction.

Indeed, what sets Unique Seafood apart is not only the quality of its

offerings but also its commitment to innovation. As Datuk Wong

explains, "We realized early on that there was a gap in the market and

that to succeed in the competitive restaurant industry, we needed to

differentiate ourselves. That's why we made the bold decision to import

exotic seafood, such as sturgeon from China and Alaskan crab, becoming

pioneers in the Malaysian market."

We wanted to make

people curious about

them to experience

something they never

thought they could

The first Unique Seafood restaurant, nestled along

Jalan Imbi, faced initial challenges before relocating

to Petaling Jaya, where it flourished. Guided by a

philosophy of offering unparalleled quality at reasonable

prices, Unique Seafood quickly gained a loyal following.

The decision to name the restaurant "Unique" was

deliberate, reflecting the diverse array of seafood on

offer and the commitment to excellence that defines

the brand.

"When we named our restaurant 'Unique,' we wanted

to convey the message that our restaurant was truly

one-of-a-kind," explains Datuk Wong. "We wanted to

make people curious about our menu and invite them to

experience something they never thought they could."

Over the years, Unique Seafood Group has expanded

its culinary footprint, now boasting four distinct

establishments. From the elegance of Atlantic

Seafood Restaurant to the familial warmth of Pantai

Seafood Restaurant, each venue offers a unique dining

experience tailored to its patrons. The main branch –

Unique Seafood PJ23 – caters to the working crowd,

handling annual dinners for companies in a more casual

setting. The Elite Grand Ballroom, on the other hand,

offers a banquet-style experience ideal for hosting large

company dinners and weddings. Across all locations, the

grand stand of aquariums, brimming with live seafood,

remains a star attraction, inviting guests to select the

freshest ingredients for their meal.

a dedicated team committed to excellence. That said, perhaps

the most compelling aspect of Unique Seafood Group's story is

the family behind the business. With five children in tow, Datuk

Wong and Datin Kok have instilled in them a passion for the

culinary arts and a commitment to excellence.

The next generation of the Wong family stands poised to

carry forward the legacy of Unique Seafood Group. Eldest son

Ken oversees the supply chain and food production, ensuring

that only the finest ingredients grace the restaurant's tables.

Daughter Charlotte, with her background in interior design, has

ventured into her own enterprise while leaving her mark on the

aesthetic appeal of the restaurants.

Yet, it is Abby and Alex Wong who have embraced their roles

within the family business with fervour and determination.

With Atlantic Seafood Restaurant under their stewardship,

they embody the spirit of innovation and adaptation that has

defined Unique Seafood's success. Abby's focus on sales and

marketing complements Alex's expertise in operations, forming

a dynamic duo poised to lead the company into the future.

"Our parents have always been our guiding light," reflects

Alex Wong, Operations Director of Unique Seafood Group.

"They've taught us the value of hard work, perseverance, and

above all, family."

For Abby Wong, Sales & Marketing Director of Unique Seafood

Group, the journey has been one of profound personal

growth and fulfillment. "Following in my parents' footsteps

and becoming an F&B Restaurateur has been one of the best

decisions of my life," she shares. "It's allowed me to pursue

my passion for business development and marketing while

honouring my family's legacy."

As they look ahead, they envision a future where Unique Seafood

continues to thrive, expanding its reach while maintaining its

commitment to quality and service. Their parents' retirement

dreams are within reach, thanks to the foundation laid and the

vision of those yet to come.

"In the years ahead, I see Alex and I continuing to expand and

innovate, always striving to uphold the standards of quality and

service that define Unique Seafood," says Abby. "Our parents

have worked tirelessly to build this legacy, and it's our privilege

and responsibility to carry it forward."

In the bustling metropolis of Kuala Lumpur, amidst the swirl

of flavours and the clink of glasses, Unique Seafood Group

stands as a beacon of culinary excellence—a testament to the

enduring legacy of family, passion, and innovation. As the sun

sets on another day, the Wong family's journey continues,

guided by a shared commitment to excellence and a love for

the art of seafood cuisine.

Kardashian-Jenner

matriarch and manager

– Kris Jenner, is certainly

a force to be reckoned

with making the once

notorious family,

America’s true royalty

The Kardashian-Jenner family, more known as “The Kardashians”, don’t need an introduction.

The family, best known for their longest running reality television show - Keeping Up with the

Kardashians, which ran for 14 years between 2007 and 2021, now boast two members of the

Billionaire club with the rest achieving success in their own realms of business. That said, it is no

secret as to the driving force behind the Kardashian-Jenner empire and that is the self-coined

“Momager” herself - Kris Jenner.

Kris has been a lifelong resident of Southern California, calling Los Angeles home since 1976.

She married attorney Robert Kardashian in 1978 only to divorce in 1991 where Kris wed former

Olympian Bruce Jenner (now Caitlyn Jenner) the same year. Robert Kardashian died in 2003

after battling cancer. Already a prominent figure in the Los Angeles social scene, Kris carved her

path as a self-made woman. The start to her career saw humble beginnings but armed with her

expertise in networking and knack for nurturing relationships, coupled with business acumen

honed since her teenage years, Kris seemed destined to be a crowned head from the outset.


74

MAY/JUNE 2024 TRAILBLAZER

Kris orchestrates the careers of her six children - Kourtney, Kim,

Khloé, and Rob Kardashian; alongside Kendall and Kylie Jenner—and

oversees their diverse array of businesses, totalling a dozen. Among

these ventures, standouts include the highly successful Skims, Kim's

shapewear line, valued at US$4 billion with US$750 million in sales in

2023, and Kylie Cosmetics, a makeup brand that saw Kylie sell a 51%

stake for US$600 million at the age of 23 back in 2020. In addition to

managing her children's endeavours, Kris operates her own production

company and serves as the executive producer of the family's hit series,

“The Kardashians”, now in its fourth season on Hulu, following the highly

successful “Keeping Up With the Kardashians”.

In addition to managing

family's hit series, “The

Kardashians”, now in its

fourth season on Hulu


TROPICANA MAGAZINE

Prior to delving into the management of her children's

highly successful lives, Kris honed her skills by managing

her former spouse, Caitlyn Jenner who gained prominence

with a victorious performance at the Olympic decathlon

event in Quebec, Canada, in 1976. Consequently, numerous

speaking engagements, often coordinated by Kris, became

a pivotal avenue for Caitlyn's public presence.

Kris sprang into action upon Kendall expressing her desire

to pursue a modelling career witnessing her genuine

dedication. Celebrated for her adeptness at capitalizing on

opportunities to enhance her family's financial standing,

Kris facilitated Kendall's entry into the modelling industry

by forging connections with esteemed agencies. By 2018,

Kendall Jenner had ascended to the pinnacle of the

modelling world, earning the title of the highest-paid model

globally, with an estimated income of US$22.5 million, as

recognized by Forbes.

In addition to overseeing Kim's burgeoning empire, which

now encompasses Kim Kardashian West Beauty and Kylie

Jenner’s lucratively established beauty brand, Kris's other

daughters have flourished in the business domain as well.

With what commenced with Smooch and Dash stores

evolved into full-fledged clothing lines, shoe collections,

home décor ranges, fragrances, and handbag lines, with

the sisters actively involved in the design process. Khloe

Kardashian spearheads Good American, a clothing line

tailored for women and Kourtney is the brains behind

Poosh. Forbes estimated that Kris Jenner pocketed at least

US$100,000 from each episode of “Keeping Up With the

Kardashians” in 2020, in addition to her customary 10%

management fee from her children's endeavours. Coupled

with her stakes in various businesses, an autobiography,

and a cookbook, Kris's net worth soared to approximately

US$190 million. When asked about orchestrating these

deals, Kris Jenner acknowledged, "I used to be a one-man

show, but then I realized, you know, it takes a village."

In addition to their multifaceted enterprises, the Kardashian

sisters leverage social media to generate substantial

income. Kris revealed her daughter are constantly receiving

offers to promote companies or brands on social media and

have so set fees for posts, stories, and various platforms.

When queried about the top earners, Kris noted that Kylie

and Kim command higher prices due to their immense

social media presence.

As the mommy-mogul turns 70 next year, she reveals that

her bucket list isn’t as extraordinary as some may believe

as staying healthy and living a long and able life is what

matters to her most. Reflecting upon her growth in The

Golden State as an individual and as a mom who truly

put her family on the map, she concluded sharing, “It’s

a personal journey. You have to be driven and have the

motivation, inspiration and desire to be successful. If you

can dream it, you can do it”.

Forbes estimated that Kris Jenner pocketed at least US$100,000 from

each episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” on top of her

LONG HAUL

ESSENTIALS

Here is a list of parenting hacks to help

when road-tripping with the little ones

Lets be honest. Traveling with kids is not a vacation for

parents. The same needs will still need to be met but

in a different location and sans the comforts of home.

The best way to make it through unscathed is purely

through being well organized. Here are a few hacks

that may help.

Plan outfits in advance: Save time and headspace by

picking out your child’s outfits before the trip. Keep the

outfits together by putting them in separate Ziplock

bags. After use, it can go back into the same Ziplock

bag and kept separate from fresh clothing.

Phone number bracelets: This is more for safety

especially if headed to a highly populated destination

over the holidays. Use numbered and decorative beads

to create a fun yet practical bracelet with your name

and phone number for your child to wear. Should you

get separated, someone will be able to contact you.


78

MAY/JUNE 2024 TIPS

Cover your car seat with sheets: Keeping your car

clean is pivotal to avoid additional unforeseen cleanup

before, during or after a roadtrip. Put old sheets over

the seats of your car to catch crumbs and prevent spills

from ruining your car.

Bring an activity book: There are tons of free printables

online. Just print, laminate and put the printables in

sheet protectors and give the kids dry erase markers.

They will be entertained for ages while giving you

peace as you drive.

First Aid Kit: Don’t rely on other people having a first

kit available. Build or get your own before you leave,

in case of emergency. Include bandages, antibiotic

ointment, and Tylenol.

Make a travel itinerary: Print out pictures of fun things

that you’ll be doing on your trip as well as things you’ll

be seeing on your drive. Turn them into a little book for

your kids to look through to keep them excited during

your road trip.

Bring a travel tray: Travel trays will help when the kids

need a snack or a solid flat surface for when they want

to colour while you’re on the road.

Freeze juice boxes: Instead of using a cooler filled with ice

to keep food and drinks at the right temperature, try freezing

juice boxes instead. It will keep everything cool, and your kids

can drink them after they thaw.

Goodie Bags: Before pushing off, pack individual goodie bags

catered to each kid with their favourite toys, snacks, and other

fun items. Pull one out if your kids get a little restless during

the trip and watch them light up.

Use a sewing kit to organize snacks: Kids get hungry all

the time. Ensure they are eating a better selection of snacks

when you’re on the road, by using a clean sewing kit to hold

a variety of snacks.

they know the importance of having a good

head of hair on one’s shoulders

In today's fast-paced world, where stress and pollution often

take a toll on our health and well-being, it's essential to carve

therapy at the 2Level Wellness Spa?

scalp with their specialized treatment. By deeply cleansing

the scalp and balancing its pH levels, the therapy session

therapy strengthens hair roots, preventing breakage and

promoting thicker, fuller hair over time. Say hello to stronger,

more resilient strands with each session.

Unclogs Hair Follicles: Throughout our daily lives, our scalp

can accumulate dirt, oil, and product buildup, leading to

clogged hair follicles. This not only hampers hair growth but

can also result in issues like dandruff and hair thinning. The

scalp care therapy effectively unclogs these follicles, allowing

your hair to breathe and flourish.

Accelerates Blood Circulation: Proper blood circulation is vital

for delivering essential nutrients to the scalp and hair follicles.

By stimulating blood flow through gentle massage techniques,

the therapy encourages faster hair growth and healthier strands

from the root.

pigmentation as the therapy session eliminates toxins and

Stress Relief and Emotional Well-being: Relaxation isn't

just a luxury – it's a necessity for maintaining mental health.

Each session soothes nerves, prevents anxiety and depression

leaving you feeling emotionally balanced.

Holistic Health Benefits: By regulating meridians and nerves,

the scalp therapy aids in toxin elimination, preventing strokes

and Alzheimer's disease while enhancing peripheral circulation

and even helps prevent hypertension.

symptoms of headaches, migraines, and insomnia.

HMD Global, home of Nokia

Smartphones, is expanding and

will be launching its own brand of

smartphones. Watch this space

Nokia owned Finnish company - HMD Global, best known for

producing Nokia-branded smartphones, has announced plans

to release its own line of mobile devices. The announcement

was made on LinkedIn by HMD Global CEO Jean-Francois

Baril stating that the company will be broadening its range

of mobile devices with a new HMD brand smartphone that is

intended to co-exist alongside its Nokia phones.

Having had the exclusive position of being the home of Nokia

phones for the last six years, it was declared that it seemed the

next logical step to enter the market to produce and launch on

their own independently. A force focused on redesigning a new

world of telecommunications, HMD has shared very openly that

it will be purely based on the customer’s experience and needs.

Details regarding the new HMD products, including a

potential release date, remain undisclosed. Efforts to obtain

further information from HMD Global are underway, and

should be announced soon.

HMD Global is a company that was formed after Microsoft

relinquished its rights to the Nokia brand in 2016. Foxconn,

Taiwanese technological group, then took over Microsoft’s

feature phone business. Founder of Foxconn - Terry Gou,

is the main owner of HMD Global and so, Nokia-branded

devices are currently produced by Foxconn making it highly

likely that any HMD-branded products in the pipeline will

also be manufactured by the tech giant.

Nokia-branded phones like the Nokia C32 released by HMD

have largely sat in the budget-to-mid-tier category so far,

and it looks like future HMD-branded devices may follow suit.

The company will continue to design for a more sustainable

and affordable future without compromising on quality. Even

if Foxconn is behind the actual manufacturing of these new

devices, HMD Global, one of the largest smartphone companies

in Europe, is still largely run by former Nokia executives making

this an opportunity for the company to reclaim some of the

brand’s legacy under a new name.

Located in Tropicana Golf & Country Resort, Atlantic

that serves premium pork-free Chinese seafood placing

emphasis on freshness and flavour. Having just opened

its doors in March, the restaurant can already boast a

Walking through large glass sliding doors, you will be greeted by the

star attraction of the restaurant and that is the Aquarium, strategically

located facing the main entrance across the restaurant. Featuring a

spectrum of tanks of varying sizes, it is almost like walking through a

commercial aquarium. On view are live fish, prawns, lobsters, crabs,

clams and abalone flown in from all around the world. There is a wide

range of local fish and prawns available on the menu too. Diners can

make their choice from the selection of live fish and seafood here to

be prepared to their liking by the Master Chefs.

Resort’s operations. She said, “Tan Sri had run many kinds

of restaurants in that location when it suddenly come to

him that maybe we could operate a seafood restaurant

in the club as he believed the seafood business is gaining

even more popularity and is the preferred cuisine by most

of the members and guests”. Abby added that, that was

when her parents, the Founders of Unique Seafood - Datuk

Wong Keong Fook and Datin Kok Yoke Sim entered into a

partnership with Tan Sri and the rest, is as they say, history.

The other sight to behold in the restaurant is the chandelier that

hangs above the center court of the restaurant. Many little chrome

fish hang down from the blue strip lights in a wave pattern casting

a beautiful array of fish shaped shadows on the floor and on the

tables while the ceiling mimics the sea. The rest of the restaurant

is elegant and zen with a modern minimalist fit out and light wood

paneling accented with chrome and gold fish placed on the walls

as hanging art.

I was warmly welcomed by one of the four directors of the restaurant

– Abby Wong Mun Yee, who handles the Sales & Marketing for

Atlantic Seafood Restaurant. Other directors are Yew Kong Chee

who handles Operations at the restaurant alongside Alex Wong

Yuen Lek while Low Yong Hui handles general operations.

On that happy note, I was politely ushered into a private

room. Abby shares that the restaurant has 5 private rooms all

of which are fitted with KTV facilities and are available for the

comfort of guests hosting business and leisure gatherings or

for families who wish to celebrate in private. Banquet menus

for private functions as well as weddings are also available.

And now, it is onto my favourite part and that is the food review.

With seven dishes to sample from, I am keen to see how the food

matches up to its’ beautiful and impressive interior. The first dish

served was oysters and being a superior Chinese seafood restaurant,

it was not served raw but baked. One would be hard pressed to

find good “French style Cheese baked Canadian oysters” and it was

to my utter delight to chance upon them here at Atlantic Seafood

Restaurant. Using Canadian oysters, the size of the shellfish wasn’t

too large nor small seeming the perfect size for a single bite. Served

hot, the cheese is soft and stringy without being too liquid and had

that perfect burnt crust on top. The shell was warm to the touch,

easy enough to be picked up after a few minutes allowing the

cheese to fuse with the oyster, lending more flavour. With a flick

of the fork separating the oyster from its shell, it is easily lifted and

eaten. Not too milky nor sea-like in flavour, the soft mouthful of

oyster paired seamlessly with the chewy cheese and was certainly

a heavenly teaser indicating the party my palate was to embark on

during this food review.

The next appetizer to follow was the “Peking duck”. Roasted to

perfection, its’ skin was so glossy and shiny that it was almost

reflective. Served alongside it were sliced cucumber fingers, strings

of green onion, sweet bean paste and thin pancake sheets. The duck,

presented whole was then sliced off the bone and presented again


118

MAY/JUNE 2024 TASTE+

later on a platter in perfect bite sized portions of duck meat with

crispy thin skin atop. Requiring assembly, Peking duck parcels are

usually put together with a light thin smearing of the sweet bean

sauce across the thin pancake. The cucumber fingers and green

onion slices are then placed in the middle. Finally, a piece or two

of the duck is placed on top of the vegetables and wrapped up

revealing a neat little package ready to be eaten. A quick bite of

the wrap and it is immediately a sensory and textural delight.

The soft pancake envelopes the crunchy cucumber and green

onion while the chewy duck meat and crispy skin are heady with

the scent of the meat. The sweet bean paste brings all the senses

together creating an unrivalled match of flavours.

Visually tantalizing, the ‘Steamed King Grouper fish in slices with soy

sauce and beancurd’ was a burst of colour and fragrance. Placed in

position from head-to-tail on a bed of green onions and beancurd

soaked in soy sauce, the body of the fish was deconstructed as the

fish was sliced into sheets thin enough to eat but thick enough to

hold its shape. The silvery skin of the fish was soft and glistened as

it was placed on the table. Sampling this Cantonese seafood dinner

main course, the meat of the steamed fish was taut and firm while

remaining soft and possessed a clean flavour profile. The soy sauce

lent a sweet saltiness to it while the sharp spice from the green

onion cut through the “heavier” flavours of this delightfully light

dish making is a harmonious symphony with every bite.


TROPICANA MAGAZINE

119

The “Steamed tiger prawns with minced garlic and vermicelli”

was the first shellfish dish to arrive. The prawns were lined

neatly in a row atop the vermicelli while a fragrant layer of garlic

gravy was drizzled heavily across the center on top. Juicy and

plump, the steamed tiger prawns were a treat to de-shell and

eat indicating true freshness. The garlic sauce dripped down

and drenched the vermicelli allowing every bite to be a savoury

delight without being too heavy on the palate.

It knew it was time to get a little more hands-on when the

“Indonesian meat crab in ‘Atlantic’ chili sauce with mantou buns”

was served. It was brought out as was two whole crabs, carefully

sectioned and placed back together giving the illusion that the

crabs were whole. Visually pleasing as it arrived swimming in

steaming hot and spicy chili gravy, its’ fragrance was intoxicating

and bewildering at the same time. Two sets of buns, also

known as ‘mantou’ buns, were placed beside the crabs. One of

a steamed variety and the other fried, the bread had the sole

purpose of being dunked into the gravy to soak up it up and then

eaten allowing the diner to enjoy the full experience of the gravy.

Of course, I digress. The shell of the head of the crab peeled off

easily revealing the body and claws and fragments of crab meat.

With the help of a nutcracker, the harder shell of the crab claw

was cracked open revealing the best mouthful of crabmeat. A

swift dribble of the chili gravy over it and the dish peaked with a

burst of flavours! The spicy, sweet and tangy sensations paired

flawlessly with the savoury crabmeat indicating freshness and a

true mastery of marrying flavours.

My eyes widened when the “Braised Boston lobster with e-fu

noodles” was brought out next. It isn’t every day I get to indulge

in a great seafood lunch and one that had Boston lobster on

the menu! The noodles glistened and it was easy to notice that

it was cooked to perfection. Not overly soft nor undercooked,

each noodle was lightly coated with gravy. A large lobster tail

that was halved was placed like a crown above the noodles

creating what was truly a majestic sight. Managing to slice

through the lobster, I took half a tail while already anticipating

the other half and quickly swirled my fork in the noodles taking

a bite sized amount to start. The e-fu noodles, that is typically

made from egg and wheat flour, was a slurpy, savoury thrill.

Its’ flavour was so distinct and heady with a seafood broth

base that I was hooked. Looking to the lobster, I released the

meat from its shell and cut it down to bite size. It was juicy and

firm and soaked up the thick broth base that remained from

the noodles. Truly the piece-de-resistance for me, my seafood

review culminated with this mouthful as the lobster meat was

soft and chewy and fragrant with flavour.

Nothing like a great big serving of greens to cleanse the palate

and it was certainly a delight to see that the staple to every

Chinese meal – the Hong Kong Kailan, was served in not one,

but two ways. Famously known as “Hong Kong Kailan in two

varieties”, I was familiar with the first style which was the

garlic stir fried version of the vegetable but it was the second

variety that was truly a wonder. Small, light and crispy, it was

the leaves of the vegetable and it was lightly fried to a crisp

without compromising its fresh green hue. Adding texture to

any bite, it was a great and welcomed addition to the meal.

The garlic stir fry was flavourful and crunchy and it was indeed

so fresh and delicious. Being sourced from Tropicana Golf &

Country Resort’s organic farm, it was pleasing to know that

ingredients are direct from farm-to-table and that efforts to be

sustainable were in play too.

the animals, they will get a deeper sense of purpose in life

and perhaps broaden their perspective of the world and the

fact that there is a lot more love out there”, said Lim of the

first CSR event held at the Megastore during the Ramadan

At its essence, Just Pets Megastore embodies the values of

love, passion, and care. It's more than just a business—it's
