HONORARY MEMBER OF MTS<br />
TAN SRI DATO’ SERI ARSHAD AYUB<br />
In March 1975, Arshad received a letter from the Public Services Department (PSD) stating his transfer<br />
out of ITM. His immediate appointment was as Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Malaysia. In 1978,<br />
Arshad was promoted to the post of Secretary-General in the Ministry of Primary Industries. Subsequently,<br />
he went to the Ministry of Agriculture and in 1981, he was transferred to the Ministry of Land and Regional<br />
Development. This was the last leg of his civil service appointment.<br />
Retirement never really set in for Arshad. Instead of fading into the sunset, he rose up again like the proverbial<br />
phoenix. Arshad sits on the Board of Directors of several public listed companies. He is currently a Chairman<br />
of Malayan Flour Mills Bhd, LBI Capital Berhad and Tomypak Holdings Berhad. He is a Director of Kulim (M)<br />
Berhad, KPJ Healthcare Bhd, Sindora Berhad and Top Glove Corporation Berhad. Arshad also sits on the<br />
Board of Directors of several private companies including PFM Capital Holdings Sdn Bhd, Ladang Moccis Sdn<br />
Bhd, Amanah Raya Investment Bank Ltd, Zalaras Sdn Bhd and many others.<br />
Arshad currently serves as President of the <strong>Malaysian</strong> Rubber Products Manufacturers Association (MRPMA).<br />
He is Pro Chancellor of UiTM, Chairman of University Malaya Board, Governor of Kolej Tuanku Jaafar, a former<br />
member of the Council of Cooperative College Malaysia, <strong>Malaysian</strong> Malay Businessman And Industrialists<br />
Association, a Board member of Yayasan Pak Rashid, Yayasan Tun Razak, and Yayasan Budiman.<br />
Arshad has been appointed as a member of the Board of Trustees Lung Foundation of Malaysia (LFM) in<br />
November 2005. His commitment, dedication and passion towards the LFM’s ideals and in promoting respiratory<br />
medicine and respiratory care are highly commendable. For his contribution and efforts, the <strong>Malaysian</strong><br />
<strong>Thoracic</strong> <strong>Society</strong> confers on him its honorary membership.<br />
