THE MELIUM GROUP AND
MALAYSIA TATLER CHARITY AUCTION
Anniversaries are important dates that should be remembered
and celebrated, especially for The Melium Group and
Malaysia Tatler, which have stood the test of time for over
three decades. In celebration of the momentous milestone,
an eloquent affair was held with 400 of the brands’ closest
friends and elite members of society on June 15 at St Regis
KL’s Astor Ballroom. Meticulously orchestrated by co-
chairwomen Dato’ Seri Farah Khan, Florence Fang and
Lee Jim Leng alongside their fellow vivacious committee
members, guests were treated to a joyous night of music
and camaraderie. The action-packed auction lasted three
hours, before the ballroom erupted into a series of cheers
as Dato’ Steve Day announced that the auction had raised a
monumental RM4.5 million, which will go to aid 15 NGOs.
