Founder & General Manager | Industrial & Power Systems Specialist | Former Sime Darby (Caterpillar Power Systems), Cummins (Cummins Engines Automotive, Industrial, Power Generation, Marine) and Tan Chong Industrial (John Deere & Sumitomo Construction Machinery) Professional
I am the founder and General Manager of KUMARA Electrical & Industrial Supplies, a trusted Malaysian-based supplier and eCommerce platform providing a broad range of heavy equipment parts, electrical and industrial tools, HVAC tools, security products, and auto & truck parts. At KUMARA, we focus on delivering reliable, cost-effective solutions to businesses across Malaysia and Southeast Asia.
Before founding KUMARA, I built a strong foundation in the power systems and heavy equipment sector through my work with globally recognized brands. I served at Sime Darby Industrial, where I was part of the Caterpillar Power Systems division, gaining hands-on experience with diesel and gas-powered systems, supporting clients across energy, marine, and infrastructure sectors. My exposure to world-class operational standards and technical systems at Sime Darby played a key role in shaping my strategic and service-oriented mindset.
I also served with Cummins Engine Company in both Malaysia and Singapore, where I was involved in the Service & Warranty of high-performance diesel engines and power generation solutions. This regional role further enhanced my technical knowledge and customer engagement skills, supporting clients across automotive, marine, and industrial segments.
