Story of a Sucessful Shenyang Girl in Malaysia 一个沈阳姑娘的创业故事
In the early year of 2012, a Shenyang girl left her hometown, from a freezing cold city to a tropical country named Malaysia. This girl is the founder of Wei Media Group Sdn Bhd – Yu Meina.
Speaking of her study experience in Malaysia, there were some stories. After graduated in 2008, she went to Singapore and worked in trade for three years. Thereafter when she was planning to pursue MBA, she learned that even though Malaysia is not a big country, yet it is one of the most prosperous countries in Asia. Malaysia provides international education environment and many private university diplomas are well recognized by China. After some thoughts, Malaysia has become her best choice for further study.
Meina felt quite fortunate that her experience of working in Singapore made her no stranger to Malaysia. After graduation, she got her first job via recommendation from a friend to join a well-known real estate agency company established by Dato’ Sri Gavin Tee. She started the job with a position as manager for China market cum assistant to chairman. She represented Dato’ Sri Gavin Tee to attend events and conferences organized by various Chinese chambers of commerce of which have helped to expand her networking and laid down a strong solid foundation for her subsequent start-up.
Yu Meina 于美娜
In year 2015, Meina together with two friends of hers who are also from China, they co-founded a social platform focusing on Chinese students, namely WEI Malaysia which now provides the latest news and practical daily life information to the Chinese students as well as to the local Chinese community as a whole. At present, WEI Malaysia not only bring together a group of media elites who have received high level of education from the east and the west, have bilingual skills and have been engaged in journalism for a certain period in mainland and Malaysia, but also attracts a group of young professionals with IT background. The convergence of these two different groups of talents allows WEI Malaysia to make full use of its competitive advantages and network characteristics to merge traditional media with new media, thus establishing a new popular Chinese content media which offers the largest amount of information at the fastest speed of communication.
In the same year, Yu Meina was appointed as the Secretary General of PUCM which promotes the development of Chinese entrepreneurs in Malaysia with the aim of enhancing mutual exchange of information and collaboration among the Chinese enterprises; expanding economic and trade cooperation with Malaysia, safeguarding the legitimate interests of Chinese enterprises; and strengthening dialogue and exchange with the Malaysian government departments.
