Public Gold honors Double and Mega Diamond achievers with RM3.5mil in prizes at prestigious ceremony in KL
PUBLIC Gold Group hosted its prestigious Recognition Ceremony 2024/25 at One World Hotel, Bandar Utama, on November 15, celebrating the extraordinary achievements of its Double and Mega Diamond business owners with prizes totalling approximately RM3.5 million.
The grand ceremony, themed “From Belief to Revolutionary Miracles – Making Dreams A Reality,” brought together Public Gold Business Owners (PGBOs) from around the world to recognise their outstanding performance and unwavering dedication to the company’s mission of making physical gold accessible to everyone.
Since its humble beginnings in Penang in 2008, Public Gold has transformed into a global precious metals powerhouse. The company relocated to the iconic Menara Public Gold in Tun Razak Exchange (TRX), Kuala Lumpur’s premier financial district, in 2022, marking a significant milestone in its expansion journey.
Today, Public Gold operates 20 branches across Malaysia, seven in Indonesia, and global offices in Dubai (UAE) and London (UK). The company has also pioneered the deployment of 110 units of the world’s first fintech-powered gold ATMs throughout Malaysia since 2023.
The numbers speak volumes: from 2008 to 2025, Public Gold has recorded accumulated sales revenue of RM23 billion, sold 87 tons of gold, and facilitated 51 tons of gold buyback. With over 2.2 million registered customers across Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, and Indonesia, the company has established itself as a trusted regional and global brand.
The ceremony was officiated by Datuk Seri Louis Ng, Founder and Executive Chairman of Public Gold Group, alongside Datin Seri Yvonne Lim, Managing Director of Aurora Italia International Berhad (AIIB), and Jerry Ng, Chief Operating Officer of PGMall and Organizing Chairman of the event.
The evening’s most prestigious honour went to Syukor Hashim and his spouse, Jonaina Nordin, who were crowned with the legendary title of “Million Star Double Diamond.”
The couple, known as Mahaguru Emas Malaysia, received rewards worth RM962,623, including Bonus Diamond, Bungalow Funds, Luxury Car Funds, and Leadership Bonus for leading nearly two million gold collectors worldwide.
As pioneers who believed in Public Gold from the beginning, their continued success demonstrates how great leadership coupled with consistency and vision makes success not only possible but predictable.
For the first time in company history, Public Gold presented three 5-Star Diamond awards simultaneously, each carrying prizes worth RM604,000 including Leadership Bonus, Bungalow Funds, and Luxury Car Funds:
Azizah Hassan – “The Public Gold Iron Lady”
Hafizul Hakim Mohamad Kerta and spouse Aliffa Rafini Abdullah – known as “Raja Borneo” (King of Borneo)
Marlia Ramli and spouse Ahmad Fuad
The ceremony also recognised achievers across multiple tiers:
4-Star Ruby: Mazlifah Omar (RM9,000 Leadership Bonus)
3-Star Jade: Nurmariah Syafikah Menjeni and spouse Pengiran Abdul Aziz Pengiran Azahari
2-Star Jade: Amir Fairuz Abdul Aziz
3-Star Pearl: Norsuzilawati Isa and spouse Mohamad Syukur Mohamed
2-Star Pearl: Multiple recipients including Amirul Farhan Khairul Salleh and spouse Assura Azlyiana Mohamad Aspar; Shamsul Enche Ismail and spouse Nora Yusof; and Kashika Nagarajan
“The commitment and resilience of our PGBOs exemplify our culture of excellence,” said Ng.
“Every success story begins with a belief. At Public Gold, our core mission is to make physical gold accessible to everyone so they can build a sustainable future. However, true wealth is not just measured by what we own, but by the knowledge we share and the lives we empower through it.”
He emphasised that leadership is about creating opportunities where others see limits, turning belief into breakthroughs with a powerful mindset.
The RM3.5 million in prizes awarded at this ceremony represents a fraction of the RM420 million worth of incentives Public Gold has distributed to PGBOs over the past 18 years, demonstrating the company’s commitment to rewarding hard work and dedication.
Looking ahead, Public Gold remains focused on strengthening its presence in Malaysia and Indonesia while accelerating global expansion through strategic deployment of its fintech-powered gold ATMs and collaborations with key industry players worldwide.
The company has set an ambitious target: serving 10 million customers globally by 2030 – a testament to its unwavering dedication to excellence, empowerment, and sustainable growth.
As Public Gold continues its upward trajectory, the success of its business owners serves as inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs, proving that with belief, dedication, and the right support system, revolutionary miracles are indeed possible.
