In this week's podcast, join us as Abang Abu shares his inspiring entrepreneurial journey from the humble beginnings of managing his father's shop in Malaysia to becoming a celebrated speaker and the first Malay businessperson to win an enterprise award. Starting at just 20, he navigated through various ventures, including a merchandise shop that he was forced to close during the SARS outbreak. His financial acumen, fueled by smart savings and investments, helped him start 28 businesses, each teaching him valuable lessons about resilience and innovation.
Abang Abu also takes us deeper into how his faith has influenced his business strategies and personal growth. He discusses the significant role of 'solat' (daily prayers) and the concept of 'berserah' (surrender), which have not only guided his spiritual path but also opened up new opportunities in business. Through his cashflow game workshops, Abang Abu merges financial education with life lessons, pushing the boundaries beyond local markets and encouraging a global outlook among his audience.

A BIG THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR
Aliyah Rizq Holdings Pte Ltd, originally operating under the name ‘Aliyah Rizq Farm’, was established as a family-run venture in 2015. The business commenced on a modest 2-acre backyard farm located in Mersing, starting with a mere 30 goats and sheep. The primary aim was to offer services related to aqiqah and qurban, catering to specific religious and communal needs.
As the enterprise flourished over the years, it saw significant expansion. By 2017, operations were relocated to a larger 25-acre site in Bio Desaru, alongside its sister company ‘Agropreneur Farms Sdn Bhd’. The farm, at this stage, had become a sanctuary for over 500 livestock, encompassing not just sheep and goats, but also horses and alpacas, diversifying its animal husbandry practices.
The growth trajectory continued, and by 2022, Aliyah Rizq Holdings further extended its operations to encompass 100 acres in Desaru, marking a substantial increase in its capacity and reinforcing its commitment to broadening its services in the region.
