Tahniah, Dato' Sabri!


Saya ingin mengucapkan setinggi-tinggi tahniah kepada bekas bos saya yang juga bekas Ketua Eksekutif Kumpulan Golden Hope Plantations Berhad Dato' Sabri Ahmad yang dilantik Pengarah Urusan Kumpulan Felda Holdings Berhad berkuatkuasa hari ini.

Beliau juga akan turut memegang jawatan Presiden dan Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Felda Global Ventures Holdings Sdn Bhd.

Saya pernah berkhidmat dengan Dato' Sabri dari tahun 2004 hingga 2007 apabila saya memegang jawatan Pengurus Besar Hal Ehwal Korporat di Golden Hope Plantations. Pada masa yang sama, saya juga memegang jawatan Pegawai Khas kepada Dato' Sabri.

Saya memang kagum dengan kebolehan dan ilmu pengetahuan Dato' Sabri yang begitu luas. Banyak yang saya pelajari dari beliau. Beliau juga ialah seorang individu yang tekun, amanah, jujur, warak serta mempunyai hubungan yang begitu akrab dengan stafnya.

Dato' Sabri yang pernah menyandang jawatan Pengerusi Lembaga Minyak Sawit Malaysia (MPOB) dari tahun 2007 hingga April lalu, mempunyai pengalaman luas dalam industri perladangan.

Beliau telah berkhidmat dengan Golden Hope Plantations selama 20 tahun dan dilantik Ketua Eksekutif Kumpulannya pada tahun 2004 sehingga ianya digabungkan dengan Sime Darby Berhad pada tahun 2007.

Beliau juga adalah bekas pengerusi Persatuan Minyak Sawit Malaysia (MPOA).

Dato' Sabri mendapat pendidikan awal di Kolej Melayu Kuala Kangsar dan meneruskan pengajiannya ke peringkat Ijazah Sarjana Sains dalam bidang ekonomi pertanian di University of London.

Beliau juga mempunyai diploma lanjutan dalam kajian antarabangsa dari University of Rhode Island serta menghadiri program pengurusan lanjutan di Oxford University.

Dato' Sabri menggantikan Dato' Mohd Bakke Salleh, yang juga mula menjawat Presiden dan Ketua Eksekutif Kumpulan Sime Darby hari ini.

Saya pasti Felda akan mencapai kejayaan demi kejayaan dibawah kepimpinan beliau.

Congratulations to my former boss and ceo, Dato Sabri Ahmad !! Under him, GHope aggressively moved to expand its global operations. We were set to reach our rm 1 billion profit target in 2010 and would no doubt have achieved it had it not been for the ill intended merger. Our loss is now felda's gain and Dato will surely bring felda to the next levelof success. Tahniah once again Dato!

Allah is great...That is about what I can utter the moment the announcement was made about Dato'Sabri helming Felda Global.
This is an indirect admission that what was said about his tenure in Golden Hope was baseless and not letting him to lead the merged entities was a big big mistake the country's politician had made,let alone the fiasco of merging the three GLC plantation companies.In the end the truth prevails and now all three ex Companies leaders can only bite their lips with Bakke's appointment to SD !!!

Ashraf,

We know Dato Sabri is a good person. But he does have his weaknesses when he was at the helm of GHope.
I heard a lot of Ex GHope are suffering now in SD due to non representation at the top. Was a result of him listening to some unscrupulous kaki bodek that he believe and listen to.
That was why even the Ex Sime & Guthrie was shock that GHope was without a Group or Dir Of Estate/Plantation.
Anyway that is all in the past now as everybody knows that the damage have been done as most of them that resigned are from GHope.
I dont know whether Dato is willing to take this experience people to FELDA.
We all know that GH was doing very well before the merger,resignation was unheard of & spirits was high.This is not the case now in SD I was told.
Lastly I hope Dato does not repeat the same mistake in FELDA because I know genuinely he is a good man.
