Having grown up in a rubber tapping family, Dang Tai Luk made it a point to start his own business to make sure his family would never fall back to poverty. With the little savings he had, he set out to start a traditional convenience store right in the middle of the financial crisis in 1997. Today, MyNews.com has more than 200 outlets. Even though MyNews.com started out as a family business, Dang is adamant about workplace professionalism- even if it means you have to fire your wife. This interview was recorded during the BFM Network Series #3.
