Malaysians are taking over the UK. I guess that might be a little bit of an exaggeration really but you might be surprised to learn the number of high profile companies which are actually owned by Malaysians/ Malaysian companies or in which they have a large share. Given below is a list of the companies:
1. Group Lotus Plc - Automobile / Sports cars / Engineering
Owned by Proton Holdings Berhad
2. Star Energy - Energy / Petroleum
Owned by Petronas
3. Wessex Water - Utilities / Water
Owned by YTL Corp
4. Laura Ashley Holdings Plc - Retail
Owned by Malayan United Industries (MUI) group
5. Jimmy Choo Ltd - Retail/ Shoes
Malaysian born Jimmy Choo owns 50% share
I am sure there are more but that's all I can think of for now.

Hi Uncle Ho's Apprentice,
Selamat Hari Raya
We try to enjoy ourselves when we can which is not that often due to all the pressure of doing a PhD and raising kids at the same time ;-)
There are quite a lot of malaysian owned british companies!
