| Harry Seggu with YLCO Museum curator Ignatius Chew looking on. |
The YLCO Museum got a visit from Harry Seggu the lawyer, educator and lately a videographer documenting the heritage stories of Ipoh in his series “Ipoh: City of Millionaires – From Nothing to Legacy.’
It is about
immigrants and dreamers who started with nothing and built empires. Harry’s ‘Millionaires’
delves into the stories of yesteryear IPOH , its colonial buildings, villages in Ipoh
eg Buntong and included Jubilee Cabaret the entertainment place that was part up
Ipoh then.
Harry's next
episode is focused on some of the progressive families ie the Yeoh, Lim, Chew
and Oh families that began in the Kinta Valley. Their story goes back 100 years
and covers the growth of the business, their illustrious descendants through
the ages cultivating that millionaire mindset to become doctors, politicians
and actresses.
Incindentally,
these families have their history all housed in their own museum with their own
curator ie a family member named Ignatius Chew.
Will Harry’s
interview cover it all. Log on to Fb/ Harry Seggu to find out this Saturday 10
May.
