THE THRIVING TRIO
Prestige Malaysia|August 2022
MACROKIOSK FOUNDERS DATO' KENNY GOH, DATO' HENRY GOH, AND MR. CS GOH TALK TO FLOREY D MIKIL ABOUT THEIR PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
THE THRIVING TRIO

FROM CLIMBING TREES AS LITTLE KIDS. TO CLIMBING THE LADDER OF SUCCESS AS YOUNG MEN, THE GOH BROTHERS HAVE ALWAYS DONE THINGS AS A TRIO. It was only recently on the 3rd of July, specifically - that MACROKIOSK, the company they founded together in the year 2000, celebrated its 22nd anniversary. "It was funny because it was a general meeting, a serious meeting, but we were just three kids," recounts Mr. CS Goh of the moment they decided to turn their love for technology into something more serious and profitable. Armed with coloured pencils, crayons, and an exercise book from school, the brothers huddled together in their shared bedroom to come up with a game plan for their future company. From just three youngsters in a small room in Malaysia, MACROKIOSK has now grown into a team that's 250 strong with an established presence in 12 countries across Asia.

Dato' Kenny Goh, the oldest of the three brothers, serves as the Chief Executive Officer of MACROKIOSK, while Dato' Henry Goh and the aforementioned CS take on the roles of Chief Operating Officer and Chief Corporate Officer, respectively. With an age gap of merely three years between Kenny and Henry and another three between Henry and CS, the brothers are unsurprisingly close to each other. If it weren't for their close-knit relationship, MACROKIOSK probably wouldn't be in existence today.
