MIGRANT workers may seem an unlikely source of lucrative business to most people, but not to Fang Koh Look, the founder of Absolute Kinetics Consultancy (AKC). The company's goodwill was made from this particular segment, which is a significant portion of Singapore's total labour force.
AKC is a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) whose core competency lies in capitalising on the opportunities present in the segment. More than just a workplace safety training and consultancy provider, it also offers medical services and is engaged in the mobile pre-paid cards distribution business.
Mr Fang came to Singapore in 1984 from Sepang, his hometown in Malaysia, to study at Nanyang Technological University and graduated as a civil engineer. Spending eight years working for good and demanding employers left Mr Fang aspiring to become his own boss.
