OUR PEOPLE Jeta Gardens is a joint venture between Mr Choe Lam Tan and his group of local investors and KPJ Healthcare, the leader in Malaysia’s healthcare services industry. STRENGTH IN PARTNERSHIP

Over 30 years ago, when the career of Mr Choe Lam Tan, Founder of Jeta Gardens, was beginning to blossom his father suffered a stroke. Being a good son he resigned from his job as an industrial engineer to care for his father. However it made him wonder, do children need to forego a career to perform a duty?

After retiring many years later but with the question of elderly care still embedded in his mind, Mr Tan agreed to serve on the Queensland Seniors Council. The more he learnt about the ageing population, the more he felt compelled to improve not just the quality of life for seniors, but also the lifestyle they enjoy as well as that of their families.

In 2002, with the simple aim of creating a place where older people could feel at home, Mr Tan and his group of local investors established Jeta Gardens. Their driving vision was for people to experience and celebrate cultural diversity within an environment offering retirement and aged care services that combine Eastern values with the very latest Western technology. In 2011, KPJ Healthcare became partners of Jeta Gardens, they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in Healthcare and the financial capability required to for the future growth of Jeta Gardens.

Together, Mr Tan and KPJ Healthcare are committed to providing a safe, considered and professional service with the integrity and respect their residents deserve.
