“The time is appropriate for renewal of the leadership in SIA,” said Chew. “The business has regained ground lost during the recession of 2008-9, the company is profitable and on an even keel, and I have had the privilege of leading this wonderful organisation for over seven years. It is timely for me to hand over to the next generation and move on.”
Goh will formally take up the position from January 1 2011, although he will sit on the board from October 1.
