PETALING JAYA: Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) has appointed Bryan Foong Chee Yeong as CEO of airline business and Low Wen Long as group chief strategy officer, effective Feb 1.
They will report directly to MAG president and group CEO-designate Captain Nasaruddin A. Bakar.
Their appointments are to strengthen MAG’s leadership at a pivotal stage as the group advances its Long-Term Business Plan 3.0, driving growth in its core businesses and ensuring financial stability.
Foong will be responsible for steering the strategic direction and performance of MAG’s global and segmented airlines portfolio, including Malaysia Airlines, Firefly and Amal while Low will lead the formulation and execution of the group’s enterprise-wide strategy across its key business portfolios to support sustainable growth and value creation.
Nasaruddin said, “As MAG enters the next stage of its transformation, marking a shift from stabilisation to scaled and disciplined growth, we are guided by a clear responsibility to build a financially sustainable and globally competitive aviation group that serves as a key enabler of Malaysia’s long-term development. I have full confidence in the leadership team to execute our strategic priorities with discipline, delivering consistent performance and creating enduring value for our customers, employees and stakeholders.”
As Nasaruddin assumes his full role as MAG president and group CEO on Feb 1, he will continue to be supported by a seasoned executive team, including Mohd Nadziruddin Mohd Basri, CEO of aviation services, and Philip See, CEO of loyalty and travel services.
This core leadership – ensuring coordinated expertise across MAG’s three core business areas including airline business – is bolstered by the recent appointments of Amran Mohd Tomin as group chief people officer and Ong Min Hui as group chief transformation and customer experience officer.
With this strengthened leadership team in place, MAG is well-positioned to execute its strategic milestones and reinforce its commitment to delivering exceptional value to its stakeholders and customers worldwide, it said.
