{{More citations needed|date=April 2021}}
Seah Leng Chye ({{zh|s=佘令财|t=佘令財|poj=Siâ Lēng-châi|j=Se4 Ling4 Coi4|p=Shé Lìngcái}}), also known as Seah Ling Chai, was the son of Kapitan Seah Tee Heng, and one of the members of the Johor Education Department since 1887. He had taken over his father's kangchu concessions, pepper and gambier business, and revenue farms.
In addition, he held shares to eight rivers in his own right and was the manager of the Kongkek (Pepper and Gambier Society of Singapore). Seah was therefore the most prominent towkay (landlord) in Johor.
