INTAJ KHAN

EDUCATION & REAL ESTATE

Intaj Khan is best known for building his business empire—the Western Institute of Technology (WIT)—from scratch. “WIT was started in 2007 with about 240 students. Today we have 600 international students from 35 countries; 62 per cent are Indian nationals.”

The businessman has revealed plans to transform Wyndham as he battles to hold his seat in upcoming council elections. “We have so much land here and so much can be done. I envisage the foreshore looking like the Gold Coast or St Kilda as it’s one of Victoria’s biggest hidden treasures.” Over the years, Intaj has moved towards real estate investments around in the West of Melbourne.

Intaj migrated to Australia on a student visa and founded WIT in 2007, cornering the market for VET certificate courses in building and construction. A few years later, he bought Mowbray College for $6.7 million after it collapsed with reported debts of $28 million.

Intaj, who currently lives Truganina with his wife and five children, says, that he has never faced any problems in Australia. “There are Indian immigrant communities in Australia that have settled for 20-30 years without any problems. Australia has a vibrant multicultural society.”

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.

Thank you for your support.

Best wishes,
Team The Indian Sun
