Tycoons

Tycoons

From Jayakarta

I like to read biographies of well-known Indonesian people who are successful. Eka Tjipta Wijaya's biography, for example, is very interesting. The biography tells us that his wealth was attained through hard work and a long and painful struggle.

Eka says he does not use his wealth to overindulge himself and he feels that he is a poor man. He says when he dies he knows his wealth will stay in this material world. Other people should imitate the way of life of this conglomerate owner. They should not suppress the less privileged people.
