Every year Malaysia Tatler celebrates outstanding individuals in society with an awards ceremony at our annual ball.
Made up of five categories, we recognise these admirable winners who have in one way or another made their mark in society.
Entrepreneur Dato' James Greaves and Tunku Datin Myra are a power couple in every sense of the word. He is a successful entrepeneur while she comes from royal bloodline and runs her own events management company as well as her own line of luxury resort and beachwear called J&M.
They joke, laugh and compliment one another, all on top of being parents to two young kids. Through thick and thin, they have always been there for one another.
As a great couple to emulate, Malaysia Tatler is proud to award Dato' James Greaves and Tunku Datin Myra with this year's Couple of the Year award.
