KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 14): Tung Shin Hospital received a hefty RM143 million donation from Diona Teh Li Shian, the youngest daughter of the late Tan Sri Dr Teh Hong Piow, in conjunction with his first memorial anniversary.
Besides the donation to Tung Shin, Diona also contributed RM200,000 each to Hospital Sultan Idris Shah in Serdang and ten other charities, in continuation of her father’s philanthropic legacy, according to a statement released by Public Bank Bhd, which was founded by Hong Piow.
“During his lifetime, my dad had touched countless lives. I hope that these contributions will create ripples of positivity and kindness, further spreading my dad’s enduring legacy to both the present and future generations,” she said.
The bank also commemorated the anniversary by opening the Teh Hong Piow Gallery, a space occupying two floors from level 30 at Menara Public Bank here, that stands as a testament to the achievements and milestones in his life and work.
During the event, Public Bank chief executive officer and managing director Tan Sri Tay Ah Lek delivered a speech, acknowledging the profound impact his late mentor had on the banking industry and the wider community.
“People do not merely follow titles; they follow passionate leaders who believe in them and inspire them to greatness,” he said.
On Dec 12, 2022, Hong Piow passed away at the age of 92. He had founded Public Bank in 1965, when he was 35 years old.
