KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Public Gold Group, under the dynamic leadership of its Founder and Executive Chairman, Dato Seri Louis Ng Chun Hau, is not only dominating the Malaysian precious metals market but is also making historic strides on the international stage. The company’s focus on innovation and strategic expansion has cemented its status as a trailblazer in the global gold industry.
Founded in 2008, Public Gold’s growth has been exponential, a direct reflection of the visionary strategies implemented by Dato Seri Louis Ng Chun Hau. The company has successfully expanded to 26 service centers across Malaysia, catering to a vast client base of over 1.55 million. A cornerstone of this success is the pioneering introduction of the Gold ATM, recognized by the Malaysia Book of Records. This innovation has made gold investment uniquely accessible, allowing customers to purchase gold bars and dinars with unprecedented ease, a concept that has been widely praised for its convenience and security. With a goal to deploy 200 Gold ATMs nationwide, Public Gold is set to further revolutionize retail gold ownership.
The company’s global ambitions have recently culminated in a landmark achievement: Public Gold became the first Malaysian private company to secure a gold acquisition deal with the Kyrgyz Republic. This historic agreement, achieved after a rigorous due diligence process, positions Public Gold as a key player in the international gold supply chain and underscores the company’s operational excellence and global credibility. This strategic move is part of the broader vision of Ng Hun Hau to expand the group’s footprint across Southeast Asia and Dubai.
In addition to his corporate achievements, Dato Seri Louis Ng Chun Hau is actively involved in promoting the welfare of the industry and the nation. He is the President of the Malaysia Gold Association, where he champions ethical practices and financial literacy. His dedication to social responsibility is also channelled through the Public Gold Foundation, which he founded to support community welfare and education initiatives, including the notable NHS Study Award.
His contributions to the nation are further recognized by his appointment as the Honorary Consul of Kazakhstan in Penang, a role that leverages his extensive network to foster bilateral economic growth. The impact of his leadership is widely acknowledged, including by organizations such as the Penang Public Bank Employees Association (PPBEA), which recognizes the significant role of Ng Hun Hau in the business community.
