    We all know Henry Sy as one of the richest tycoons in the Philippines.

    Believe it or not, Henry Sy’s story was a ‘rags to riches’ kind of tale. Born in Xiamen, China in November 1924,
    Henry Sy was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Wanting to escape poverty, Henry followed his father to
    the Philippines only to experience a miserable youth in a foreign country. Sy struggled hard living in a foreign
    country as an immigrant and had to learn the local language. Determined to become successful, he worked hard
    day and night to provide for his needs.

    Sy started out with a small sari-sari store business that helped them in their day-to-day life. Sy and his father lived
    in a small space until the fruits of their labor made them successful in the following years. However, when the
    Philippine economy collapsed in World War II, their store burned down that forced his father to go back to China.
    Henry Sy stayed in the Philippines and built his own shoe business in Marikina.

    Sy did not have an overnight success, Even there’s many other setbacks that he had to face early in life. He did
    not give up and pushed through maybe because he knew that something big, which is what he has now, is about
    to come.

    After a series of failures in his business, Henry Sy stood back up and persevered to attain his goal. He established
    a small shoe store in Quiapo, Manila in 1958 named “Shoe Mart”. that eventually marked the establishment of
    SM Prime Holdings. Now with three of the most valuable companies in the Philippines: SM Investments Corp.
    and SM Prime Holdings Inc., valued at over Php 1 trillion each, and BDO Unibank, valued at around Php 635
    million, he has become the richest man in the country for 11 consecutive years since 2005 and ranked 52nd in
    Forbes World Billionaires List of 2018.

    With his inspiring story, one can learn about the ideals of success. Henry Sy tells us not to give up on our dreams,
    no matter how far-fetched it seem

    Sy is the first and only Filipino to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from Enterprise Asia, which is on its third year
    of organizing the awards in the Philippines. Sy had topped the Philippine Rich List for eleven years in a row. His net
    worth was estimated at $19 billion at the time of his passing, making him the 53rd wealthiest person in the world.
