Love knows no caste, religion, creed and certainly no 'riches' and Angeline Francis Khoo, the daughter of Malaysian tycoon Khoo Kay Peng is proving just that.
She is giving up on her family property worth crores to marry the man whom her father had declined.
FACEBOOK/SOUL CONSCIOUS SISTERHOOD
According to the Strait Times, 78-year-old Khoo Kay Peng is the chairman of Malayan United Industries, an investment holding firm which has huge stakes in high-end luxury brands and hotels.
In 2015, he was ranked 44th on the Forbes list of Malaysia's 50 richest people. His net worth was estimated to be US$300 million.
WORLD OF BUZZ
Angeline Khoo, the fourth of Mr Khoo's five children with his ex-wife, when she told her father she wanted to marr Francis but he refused to give his consent.
Ms Kho met Carribean-born data scientist Jedidiah Francis when she was studying at the Oxford University.
But for Angeline neither her father's riches nor his consent mattered. Everything faded into oblivion and her sole aim was to wed the love of her life.
"I believed dad's stance was wrong, so there was no question about what was right," she said in the interview to Daily Mail.
"Money amplifies negative characteristics and that can cause problems. To walk away from that was actually very easy. I didn't even consider it," she added.
