Benny Kwek, Regional Sales Director

Worked with Marc during his welding days and I must say he was naturally gifted with his customers. I always remembered the times we spent travelling on the “sampan” between Riau Islands just to get an opportunity with a client. As the saying goes “Tough times don’t last, tough man does”. If you are in search for a financial consultant with great ethics and sincerity, Marc is someone you need to know.
