Entrepreneur Datuk Seri Aliff Syukri participated in Malaysia's recent National Day parade as part of the Shopee Malaysia contingent, making headlines for his appearance. In a post on Threads, Aliff clarified that his participation was not driven by financial gain, but rather as a means to express his gratitude towards the platform for its support in expanding his business.
He emphasized that the reason behind his involvement was not the payment, but Shopee Malaysia's substantial help in his business endeavors. Aliff further acknowledged that his accomplishments today would not have been achievable without the backing of Malaysians and the country at large.
