Nightclubs Fight For Mysterious Malaysian Man

Much like Halley's Comet, a playboy that spends as much money as mysterious Malaysian man Taek Jho Low only "comes around once in a lifetime," according to Manhattan nightclub owners. The city's club owners have been fighting to woo the Wharton Business School alum, who has spent tens of thousands of dollars purchasing more than 100 bottles of Cristal champagne in a single night, according to Page Six. Little is known about the 28-year-old other than his big spending habits, his address at the ritzy the Park Imperial, and his celebrity pals — and sources say he'd like to keep it that way. A friend, who described Low as a "dealmaker with interests in the Mideast and Asia in construction, oil and gas," told the paper: "He's not an arms dealer. And he doesn't want all this publicity."

Mysterious Rich Malaysian Partying Like Rich Russian

There is a geeky-looking rich guy from Malaysia who has developed quite the reputation for running up huge tabs at douchey NYC clubs, as well as flying Megan Fox to party with him "and his entourage" in Las Vegas, and sending 23 bottles of Cristal to Lindsay Lohan at 1OAK. Heads up gold diggers: his name is Taek Jho Low, and he's residing at the Park Imperial, where his profligacy is so extreme residents wish they had a rapper in the building instead. One neighbor tells the Post, "It used to be that when you saw the Cadillac Escalades outside, you knew Sean [Combs] was in town. Now it's this guy."
