Seah Leng Chye

Seah Leng Chye (sometimes known as Seah Ling Chai) (simplified Chinese: 佘令财; traditional Chinese: 佘令財; pinyin: Shé Lìng Cái), was the son of Kapitan Seah Tee Heng, and one of the members of the Johor Education Department since 1887. He had taken over his father's kangchu concessions, pepper and gambier business, and revenue farms. In addition, he held shares to eight rivers in his own right and was the manager of the Kongkek (Pepper and Gambier Society of Singapore). Seah was therefore the most prominent towkay in Johor.
