Biography

Keith Foo was born on 6 January 1983 in Gemas, Negeri Sembilan to a mixed Chinese and Indian family. [3] He has established his career first in the Indonesian film industry for more than a decade and is now expanding his acting career in Malaysia. His name became massively popular in his latest Malaysian drama Ariana Rose which featured him playing a Muslim. [4] In Ariana Rose, Foo played the role of Tengku Adam Kamil. According to him, he not only brought the character to life, but indirectly he was also able to learn a little about Islam. [4] The character is a Muslim and requires him to pray and read the Al-Quran and this at the same time causes some people to feel uneasy considering that Keith is not a Muslim, [4] while his acting career was concentrated in Indonesia, he had played the role of a Muslim several times. [4] [5]

Aside from taking on a variety of roles, Keith also dabbled in publishing. Keith's interests, however, are not limited to the creative world. He also has an entrepreneurial streak and a high interest in the food and beverage industry, which can be generated from when he studied in the field of Hotel Management. He is also fluent in Chinese (Mandarin, Hainanese and Cantonese), Tamil, Malay, English and Indonesian.
