Chua Cheng Bok (Chinese: 蔡正木; pinyin: Cài Zhèngmù) was one of Malaya's most prominent businessmen in the first half of the 20th century, and opened the region's first cinema. He was born in Malacca in 1880 as the second son of an immigrant family from Fujian, China. His father Chua Toh started his life as nutmeg dealer in his young age, and had five sons: Cheng Tuan (the eldest), Cheng Bok, Cheng Hee, Cheng Hock and Cheng Liat. Chua Toh died in 1908 and was buried in Bukit Cina.
