BRC Asia appoints new group COO

Former COO Zhang Xingwang has been appointed as CEO for Malaysia.

BRC Asia Limited’s Tan Lau Ming, who was previously the company’s deputy COO, has been appointed as the group COO.

“The Board is pleased to welcome Tan Lau Ming to his new role, recognising his experience and leadership are expected to contribute positively to the Group’s operational performance and growth,” the company said in a regulatory filing.

The company announced this development after Zhang Xingwang stepped down as COO to take on the role of CEO for Malaysia.

Meanwhile, other officials were redesignated, namely Seah Kiin Peng as the group CEO, Xu Jiguo as the group chief procurement officer, Lee Chun Fun as the group chief financial officer, and Ong Lian Teck as the group chief commercial officer.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
