Ar. Abdul Rahman Richard Bin Abdullah

Managing Director / Group Chief Executive Officer

Ar. Abdul Rahman Richard Abdullah was born in October, 1969 in Tuaran, Sabah. He had his earlier education in Tuaran prior to being chosen as a Sabah Foundation sponsored scholar from 1982 to 1986 in Pahang. He later completed his Diploma in Architecture at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Johor in 1991 prior to pursuing a degree in the same field at the Universiti Teknologi MARA from 1991-1994. Abdul Rahman obtained his professional architectural license in 2003.

Abdul Rahman started his career as a Project Architect in 1994 at FAA Architect, prior to enhancing his career at Teknikarya Arkitek in 1996. He later moved to Radicare (M) Sdn Bhd as an Assistant Project Director in 1998, where he was tasked to under- take major project developments, which included being in-charge of the construction of the Selayang Hospital.

His interest in business led Abdul Rahman to set up Abdul Rahman Richard Architect (ARRA) Sdn Bhd in 2003 (then a sole propri- etorship), which was involved in a multitude of government and private sector projects around the country, including the Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UNIMAP) and the soon to be constructed Hospital Universiti Malaysia Sabah (HUMS) amongst others.

Abdul Rahman then diversified his business interests through the formation of Medic Planner Sdn Bhd (focusing on the setting up and construction of hospitals), Tunjang Jitu Sdn Bhd (A CIDB-registered Class A contractor) and Kipcare Sdn Bhd (an international medical gloves manufacturer). The companies have since undergone a corporate restructuring process whereby they are placed under a corporate structure helmed by Abdul Rahman’s holding company; ARRA Properties Sdn Bhd.
