Chew Gek Khim has been running Straits Trading since 2008, after her family's investment company, Tecity Group, took control following a highly public bidding war. Since then, she's taken the tin legacy smelting business founded in 1887, and transformed it to focus more on becoming a major player in real estate and hospitality. It sits across the water from the popular tourist destination, Penang Island. "I'm optimistic it's a game changer for Penang because this whole area, which was at one time looked at as the poorer cousin of Penang Island, is now coming up," Chew said.
