Tee Fook How ― Founder & CEO of NEWPAGES
Driving Digital Growth for Over 10,500 Malaysian Businesses
Mr. Tee Fook How is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of NEWPAGES, the largest corporate website developer in Malaysia. He leads the company in helping over 10,500 Malaysian SMEs grow their businesses through powerful digital marketing solutions ― powered by NEWPAGES’ proprietary platform, ONESYNC.
Under Mr. Tee’s direction, NEWPAGES has successfully ranked over 43 million keywords on Google’s first page, enabling Malaysian SMEs to gain massive online visibility, drive web traffic, and boost their sales performance. The platform has collectively generated more than 9.5 million product and service inquiries across its ecosystem ― making it one of the most impactful digital platforms in the local SME sector.
How It All Started
In 2006, Mr. Tee Fook How graduated from the University of Malaya (UM) with a degree in Computer Science and Information Technology. During his studies, he encountered a book that would shape his future ― 《孙正义传：飞得更高》, the biography of Masayoshi Son, founder of SoftBank.
The story of Son's bold investment in Alibaba after a brief meeting with Jack Ma deeply resonated with Mr. Tee. Inspired by Jack Ma’s unwavering drive, he envisioned building a technology company that could empower others to succeed.
🚀 The Founding of NEWPAGES
Motivated by his vision, Mr. Tee founded NEWPAGES® in June 2007 at just 24 years old. With only a borrowed computer and a camera, he started his journey in Skudai, Johor.
From day one, he was guided by a powerful mission:
为每家企业在互联网上打开新的一页 (“To open a new page online for every business”)
Mr. Tee believed that every SME should have access to professional, effective digital marketing solutions ― a principle that continues to shape NEWPAGES today.

From a solo venture to a nationwide digital force, Mr. Tee’s leadership has been instrumental in making NEWPAGES a trusted partner for Malaysian SMEs.
