Mydin hypermarket chain founder Mydin Mohamed Ghulam Hussein died of old age at a private hospital in Kuala Lumpur today.
His son, who is also Mydin Mohamed Holdings Bhd managing director, Ameer Ali Mydin, 60, said his 88-year-old father had died at 5.06pm.
"My father was taken to hospital due to vomiting after he returned from (Mydin) outlet in (Jalan) Masjid India shortly after Zohor prayer time," he said when contacted byBernama today.
He said the body would be buried after Zohor prayer on Wednesday at the Bukit Kiara Muslim Cemetery, after the return of his youngest son who is currently living in the United States.
Born in Penang in 1928, Mydin Mohamed is survived by his wife Rowshan Bai, 80, and seven children.
Ameer Ali said his father established the company in Kota Baru, Kelantan in 1957.
"He was a highly disciplined person and punctual when dealing with others especially in business.
"He often reminded his children to earn money in a 'halal' manner by running an honest business," said the third child of the deceased.
