li ka shing- hutchison whampoa and some property development co.(cant seem to recall the name)

but your list a bit wrong lah. I dont see mahathir in the top ten richest in the world wan?

at least next year, abdullah will be on the list. what with at least 4.4 billion added to his wealth this year alone.

khairy is MERELY a multi millionaire. Not worthy of mentioning in the same breath as the above.

my genius contributions :

kuok - kerry group, shangri la hotels, china property developer.

ananda - maxis, tanjong plc(owns pan malaysian polls)

lim goh tong - if plus his son can go to around ananda's amount

YTL- got 1 bil but have to split among 4 bros. not much per person. and they dont own nearly as much BB as Berjaya
