Born in 1923, Robert Kuok Hock Nien is a Malaysian business magnate and investor. Most of his businesses are privately held (by him or his family) with investments in many companies throughout Asia.
His business interests span across a wide range of industries, including sugarcane plantations, sugar refineries, flour milling, animal feed, hotel, property, and many more.
