Public Bank Celebrates 60 Years of Diamond Jubilee with a Historic Sky-High Celebration

On 26 January 2026, Public Bank marked its Diamond Jubilee in truly spectacular style, celebrating 60 years of progress and purpose with a celebration that quite literally soared to new heights. Anchored on the theme “Growth and Trust,” the milestone honoured the Bank’s evolution into one of Malaysia’s most enduring financial institutions, built on six decades of unwavering customer confidence and shared success.

Graced by the honourable guest, Ms Teh Li Shian Diona, daughter of the Bank’s late founder, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Teh Hong Piow, along with Tan Sri Dato’ Sri (Dr) Tay Ah Lek, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Public Bank, the members of the Board of Directors and Senior Management staff of Public Bank Group, the launch was more than a commemorative moment. It was a tribute to a 60-year partnership with millions of Malaysians and a reaffirmation of Public Bank’s enduring commitment to helping individuals, families and businesses grow, today and into the future.

Founded in 1966 by the late Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Teh Hong Piow, Public Bank has grown from a humble local Bank into one of Southeast Asia’s strongest financial institutions. Known for its prudent stewardship and customer-first philosophy, the Bank continues to set industry benchmarks in stability, profitability and innovation.

Public Bank officially launched its 60 Years Celebration with a breathtaking drone light show and projection mapping on its iconic headquarters, Menara Public Bank. This groundbreaking event marked Public Bank as the first Bank in the nation to stage a public celebration with drones and projection mapping technology, symbolising its commitment to innovation while honouring six decades of unwavering legacy.

The evening opened with Ms Teh Li Shian Diona, officiating Public Bank’s 60 Years Celebration, activating a specially built “60 Years” logo structure at the facade of Menara Public Bank, marking the Bank’s elevation into its Diamond Jubilee milestone. The pivotal moment was immediately followed by a spectacular aerial showcase featuring a fleet of 600 synchronised drones, sponsored by Ms Teh Li Shian Diona, serving as a canvas to illustrate the Bank’s milestone. The display traced Public Bank’s six-decade journey and the enduring trust placed in the Bank by generations of customers. The display reached its crescendo as the drones intricately formed the face of the Bank’s late founder, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Teh Hong Piow, before transforming into a majestic horse to herald the Year of the Horse. The night culminated in a defining moment with the unveiling of the Bank’s “60 Years” logo, as projection-mapped horses appeared to leap from Menara Public Bank, creating a breathtaking fusion of light, motion and legacy. Extending the experience beyond the skyline, the entire show was livestreamed on Public Bank’s official Facebook and YouTube channels, enhanced with immersive AR features that brought the celebration to life for audiences everywhere.

“This celebration signifies that while we are rooted in tradition, we are a Bank that is agile and ready to embrace the future. Our mission for the next decade is clear, to achieve greater heights, to drive sustainable growth, become the partners for the next generation of entrepreneurs, and continue setting the benchmark for banking stability and excellence in the region,” said Tan Sri Dato’ Sri (Dr) Tay Ah Lek, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Public Bank.

To honour the 60-year milestone, Public Bank is pivoting the celebration toward its customers with the launch of the Public Bank 60th Diamond Jubilee Celebration Campaign. Under this campaign, customers stand to win an array of extraordinary prizes, including 60 units of the Proton e.MAS 7, 3 units of luxury Electric Vehicle (EV) cars as the Grand Prize, 6,000 units of limited edition PB Smart Watch, and over RM2,600,000 worth of cash rewards. That is not all, eligible customers can earn up to RM6,000 worth of guaranteed cash rewards by meeting the minimum campaign criteria. The initiative reflects the Bank’s commitment to sharing its success with the stakeholders who have made this Diamond Jubilee possible.

For more information on the campaign details and the full list of amazing prizes, customers are invited to visit the official campaign website at www.pbebank.com/60years.

As Public Bank looks beyond its Diamond Jubilee, the celebration serves not as a pinnacle, but a new beginning.

By harmonising innovation with integrity, Public Bank reaffirms its promise to remain a trusted financial partner for all Malaysians, shaping a more prosperous and resilient future for generations to come.
