Heah Joo Seang (1899-1962) is a Malayan politician, businessman, rubber tycoon and philanthropist. Born in Sungai Nibong Kecil in 1899, Heah attended a Chinese primary school in his village before moving on to study at the St Xavier's Institution. The school benefited from his generosity when, after he became successful in business, he funded the building of the school auditorium, now named Dewan Heah Joo Seang in his honour.
