Eric
Ewe (Managing Director), a graduate from Toronto's York
University Canada, majoring in Political Science, he started
a wholesale tour operator in Montreal. He began to bring
small groups to Malaysia and the business goes on for two
years. As when he started to see the success in the business,
he was asked to return to Malaysia to look after his elderly
parents. His passion in travel business has leaded him to
join a corporate travel agency in Kuala Lumpur where he
served as General Manager in the company. Within 6 years,
he has transformed the small agency into one of the Top
Leading Corporate Travel Management Company, winning several
international Airlines and Hotel awards. Turn over of the
company grew from RM15 million to reach RM 65 million per
annum at its peak. He later moved on to set up a Dutch based
inbound agency, which handles charter flight passengers
to Penang. Miracle happened again and the company managed
to bring in closed to 18,000 passengers a year to Malaysia.
Today, with his vast knowledge and strong contacts in the
travel industry, he has decided to build up his dream by
starting up Discovery Overland Holidays in year 2000. |
