The Story of NEWPAGES

Founder of NEWPAGES

Tee Fook How, I graduated from the University of Malaya (UM) in 2006, majoring in Computer and Information Systems, specializing in web coding and systems. By chance, I stumbled upon a life-changing book – "Flying Higher: The Glories and Dreams of an Internet Dream Maker" about Masayoshi Son.

A short segment in the book detailing how Masayoshi Son decided in just six minutes to invest in an Internet company - Alibaba, piqued my curiosity and led me to research Jack Ma and Alibaba. Jack Ma's story and his vision of "making it easy to do business anywhere" deeply impacted me. I too aspired to establish a world-class company, become a great individual, and help small and medium enterprises succeed.

In early 2007, eager to make a name for myself in the digital realm, I collaborated with a somewhat famous magazine company, G, in Johor Bahru, to develop an online advertising platform called G365. However, after the website went live and sales began, G claimed 100% ownership of the site, relegating me to merely a commission-based agent. This led to an immediate fallout.

Subsequently, I decided to strike out on my own to realize my dreams. In June 2007, I founded NEWPAGES® - turning a new page for every business on the Internet and aiding SMEs in boosting their performance.
 

About NEWPAGES

Founded in 2007, NEWPAGES® initially started as a digital commercial advertising platform. Our simple goal was to connect all merchants on this platform, assisting them with advertising, product listings, and promotions so that customers could easily find their information. Later, many businesses expressed the need for their domain (.com) to directly link customers to their websites.

Thus, we upgraded our systems to synchronize websites and platforms, gradually evolving to offer one-stop website marketing solutions, including website construction, Google search ranking, and e-commerce systems. By 2015, we earned recognition from the Malaysia Book of Records and filed a patent application for our ONESYNC® technology.

We remain committed to continual research and development, enhancing our platform to help entrepreneurs conduct their business in a low-cost, long-term, and sustainable manner, through inquiries and orders on our platform.

"At its core, our corporate culture is people-centered," which is a basic belief that must be held by all company members. In simpler terms, it means "respect for people."
