It started with my father's swiftlet house.
The nesting planks grew mould. We asked everyone. Nobody had an answer. I wasn't willing to accept that, so I found an anti-mould product myself, then got a factory to make a version built just for swiftlet houses. That became MDK's first in-house product. Today you know it as Meranti+.
In these 16 years, this industry has been through storm after storm. I have spent money the wrong way myself. I changed sounds and watched birds come, then leave. I brought people in to look too. Money spent, still no more birds.
So we turned the whole thing around: diagnosis first, prescription second. If the diagnosis doesn't call for it, we don't sell it.
It is not that Malaysia has fewer swiftlets. It is your house that has fewer swiftlets. That sentence stings, but it is good news, because whether birds come or not is mostly in your hands. The one condition: find the real problem first.
