High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Tan Lark Sye was a prominent Singaporese Hoklo businessman and philanthropist. Born to a poor family, at the age of 18 Tan migrated to Singapore. In Singapore he worked in one of Tan Kah Kee's factories, and within half a year he was promoted to a responsible position in the elder Tan's Khiam Aik company. Not long after, he left the company to set up with his brothers a rubber enterprise which, however, lost half its capital in a year. Tan Lark Sye then went it alone and after several years' struggle he built up his Aik Hoe rubber company and became one of the leading rubber industrialists of the region. He expanded his business to all parts of Malaya, Thailand and India, and diversified into insurance, paper and cement industries. His career as industrialist peaked in the 1950's when his company reaped huge profits from the rising rubber price. He was an activist, and like other entrepreneurs of his time, believed in the value of education.
