Rumour Has It....
Hi
everyone! Hope everything goes smoothly in your daily life. Life is good when
you don’t have any worries to think of. Speaking of worries, I’m pretty sure
that you might have heard of some rumours about KS Entourage that are being
actively circulated all over Malaya. So what I’m writing today is about this
one particular rumour which really caught the attention of my boss, KS, who
told me that we need to come clean with this matter. Don’t worry, I won’t bore
you to death with the entire story. But what I’m about to write is about the
main points highlighted by KS himself.
You
see, just recently someone (or something, probably a cat or a bird or even a
Polar bear, I don’t know) spread a rumour saying that KS has been stealing
ideas from a famous decorator that we would like to call as Decorator X (name
won’t be mentioned, but I’m sure you know who we talk about especially when
you’ve heard about the rumour). The idea of “stealing” occurs simply because, kononnya KS Entourage worked FOR
Decorator X. Why did I type the word “for” in capital letters?
Now,
there’s a huge difference between working FOR and working WITH. Being a future
educator myself, let me first show you the difference between these two.
Working FOR a certain company means you work under them. Meaning that the
company pays you and you work for them. In other words, it’s the
employer-employee kind of thing. On the other hand, working WITH a company
means you work together in order to achieve something. Also in other words, you
collaborate with the other party to achieve your goal (ok now I sound like my
Marketing text book when I was doing my Diploma).
Rumour
has it (cue for Adele’s song) that KS Entourage was the underdog or the staff
working for Decorator X. There was this one time when KS Entourage was
collaborating, I repeat, COLLABORATING with Decorator X for about seven months
before they decided to split. And because of this, it is said that KS has been
“stealing” Decorator X’s ideas on the pelamin,
decorations and such. I would like to stress here that all KS Entourage’s ideas
are original and none were and are not influenced by any other parties. The
term “stealing” doesn’t exist in KS Entourage’s dictionary.
The
purpose of this post is not that we want to quarrel with Decorator X, neither
do we want to show that we are greater than anyone else. But the main reason is
solely that we want the public to know the truth. And truth comes none other
better than from us, KS Entourage Sdn. Bhd.

The Story Behind KS Entourage
You
may have heard it - KS Entourage Sdn. Bhd, many stories behind it especially
after the much publicized wedding of Yusry and Lisa Surihani, but what you
don’t know is how did it all started and what do we offer. That’s definitely
the purpose of today’s post which is to write about the story behind the
success of KS Entourage Sdn. Bhd.
KS Entourage is owned and managed by Khairul Shahril or KS, as the name itself suggested. After graduating from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), KS started working for Astro. He also became the info reader at two local radio stations – Sinar FM and Era FM.
How did it all started?
Working
in the broadcasting world definitely gives that person the opportunity to meet
a lot of people. That was when KS was asked to become a wedding MC (Master of
ceremony). Also along the way he has helped quite a number of wedding
ceremonies which required him to do the flower arrangements and such. After
working with Astro, he then went to Budapest for work.
After coming back from Budapest, KS received numerous questions and enquiries whether or not he has set up a company which organizes events. It was during this period of time that KS got the idea of finally setting up an event organizer company. Alas in 2008, KS Entourage Sdn. Bhd. was born!

At first, the company only offered coordination, lighting and MC services only but after six months into the business and clients asking don’t we offer dais (pelamin) decoration services and such, he decided to expand the services including decorating the entire event.
What makes KS Entourage unique?
Of course in Malaysia, we have
numerous wedding and event planners that have been doing very well and utterly
famous. So what is it, that you may ask, that makes KS Entourage unique apart
from all these competitors? Simple. KS Entourage is the first wedding planner
who came up with the idea of event coordinator, the whole coordination team as
well as catering offered in the services.
KS got this idea of compiling these important elements into an entire service while he was in Europe. Why? Because normally when people want to get married, the first person that they will look for is either the designer or the caterer. What people don’t know is that they are making a huge mistake by doing that. In Europe and Jakarta, the first person that a bride and groom will look for is the wedding coordinator. These people are the ones who will suggest and propose what they should or should not do. Not only that they are running a business, but they are educating people at the same time, avoiding their clients not to do mistakes which at the end of the day might embarrass them.
Does KS Entourage only cater for weddings?
Oh honey! That’s where you got it
all wrong! We at KS Entourage is not restricted to weddings only. As I’ve
mentioned earlier, KS Entourage is an event planner. Not only weddings, but we
do everything! From birthday parties to corporate functions and annual dinners.
From team buildings, product launching to make up. In other words, KS Entourage
is THE one stop centre for everything you need in organizing an event. Not to
mention, we were the official event coordinator and planner of Nuffnang
Asia-Pacific Blog Awards 2011 as well as
World Universities Peace Invitational Debate (WUPID) 2011 Press Conference.
There you have it, everything you need to know about how did it all started and of course a little bit of KS’ background. Oh and don’t be surprised when I say KS knows how to quilt! And not to mention, he was named the top five Malay debaters in Malaysia not just by the Teh Tarik puller at a Mamak, nor the fishmonger. But he was named by Majlis Debat Universiti Malaysia (MADUM). It is a very prestigious award. So don’t bother arguing with him, you’ll just waste your time. Cheers!
