Tony Fernandes


Tony Fernandes
His name is Tan Sri Anthony Francis Fernandes but he has been known as Tony Fernandes .He was born in 30 April 1964. He was born and grew up in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He is a successful Malaysian entrepreneur .He was the founder of Air Asia Airlines also he was the one who introduced the first budget no-frills, Air Asia to Malaysian with the tagline “Now everyone can fly ”. 

Tony came from a good family background  his parents were knowing as Tupperware dealers parties  , however he started to work with them .However,  we know that he continued his study not as same as some other an entrepreneur that who  dropped out their school . By 1987 he graduated from Epsom College in London School Of economic. He started to work in early age as I mentioned before. As I read about him he has got a lot of experience while he was staying in London .He worked for many companies their and got new ideas that give him the ability to introduce something new to the public.

When he came back into Malaysia. He was the youngest managing director of Warner music (Malaysia). Of course when we started a new business it will make loss first for sure and that give us a chance to correct the mistakes .Fernandes says, since 11 September 2001, Aircraft leasing costs were down 40% also airline lay-offs. Also he believed Malaysian travelers would embrace a cut-rate air service that will save them time and money, and he was right, as we can see right now Air Asia Airline is one of the most famous Airline Company in Asia. Tony used great strategies to attract and make customers love AirAsia by giving them low prices that make people save more money.

Tony never stop bringing new things to public but he also started his own new business and started hotel chain Tune Hotels. These hotels are in Kuala Lumpur and new one is going to open in Bali (Indonesia). I believe that he worked very hard for it. When some people talking  about success , most of the people think it's a destination , but they don't realize that is success is a  journey and Tony has achieve to his destinations and he is still keep going and trying to introduce new things to market and to the world. Tony has never give up and what AirAsia achieve today has came from a patience man who waited for too long to arrive to what he wanted. Now he is one of the famous businessmen in Asia .Famous, Money, awards, honors are rewards for what he has paid. Malaysia government also appreciated Tony`s work because it is helping Malaysia economic to grow up.

We learn from this man that no matter how hard is life or your goals to achieve, believe in your self that you can get to it in future and everything with time is going to be fine and successful as long as you work hard and honestly to what you love .also never give up what you want to achieve. He loved what he do and he success on it.
