The People’s Champion
The group has built 54,000 homes, and most houses were priced below RM100,000.
It earned the Emkay group founder and executive chairman the nickname “King of Affordable Housing”.
Mustapha always has given close attention to the issue, calling on the government and developers to ensure the availability of affordable homes.
He was inspired to do more to help needy communities while working as a civil servant, including as Assistant District Officer for Ulu Selangor.
His group has built 60,000 residential, commercial and office units worth a gross development value (GDV) of RM20 billion.
The corporate success over the years inspired Mustapha to do even more.
The corporate social responsibility (CSR) work and philanthropic causes included Yayasan EMKAY, Pulau Banding Foundation and the Bukit Merah Orang Utan Island Foundation.
Responsible tourism thrives in Belum Rainforest, where Belum Rainforest Initiative by @YayasanEMKAY is empowering the Orang Asli community for the betterment of their future.
