Though running a restaurant is hard work, former corporate banker George Ang finds it a most satisfying switch in career. The managing director of Revenue Valley Sdn Bhd believes that if you do something you love, you will never go wrong.
Ang, who holds a bachelor of business in accounting and finance degree from the University of Western Australia, has always wanted to set up his own business.
Upon graduation, he joined OCBC Bank (M) Bhd before being headhunted to join Paribas Labuan branch in 1996. Subsequently, he was transferred to Paribas Singapore as assistant vice-president of the corporate banking division.
Despite being a high flyer in the financial industry, Ang’s entrepreneurial spirit continued to lurk, waiting for a chance to surface.
“I realised that I did not want to be a high flyer after all. So, I left the corporate world to set up my own business,” he told StarBiz.Full of enthusiasm, Ang, 36, and his partner, Dr Jeffrey Goh, a dentist-turned-politician, invested about RM60,000 in a food and beverage (F&B) business.
