JAKARTA - The name Crazy Rich from Pluit, Rudy Salim, has recently been circulating on social media. From his last name, the 34-year-old man admitted that he is often associated with the family of conglomerate Anthony Salim, a tycoon who is also one of the richest people in Indonesia.

Rudy Salim, who is the CEO of Prestige Corp and co-owner of the football club RANS Cilegon FC with Raffi Ahmad, said that he has a good relationship with Albert Salim, Anthony Salim's brother. Rudy even had time to collaborate with Axton Salim, the eldest son of Anthony Salim.

In a video uploaded on Helmi Yahya's YouTube channel, quoted by VOI on Friday, February 4, Rudy confirmed that he was not related by blood to the Salim family. He only relates both personally and from the business side.

"Egg has nothing to do with Anthony Salim's family, it just so happens that the surname is the same. Coincidentally, in that area, it turned out that all of their names were Salim when they came from China to migrate here", said Rudy.

According to him, the name Salim is the same as the names of the Balinese people, such as Made and Ketut. Although many use the name, they are not necessarily brothers.

"More or less so", he added.

But he joked a little about the prejudices of people who often associated him with the tycoon Anthony Salim family. Rudy is happy when he turns out to be part of the Anthony Salim family.

"Wow, if so, the Salim family is really happy. I don't work this time, I just don't look up when I walk", joked Rudy.
