KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Mohamed Shazalli Ramly, currently chief executive of Celcom Axiata Bhd, will move on to a new and larger regional role effective September 1, 2016, where he will be responsible for all Southeast Asia operations.
Shazalli, who will continue being a member of the Celcom Board, will also be appointed to three other boards of Axiata’s operating companies.
Shazalli has been with Celcom for the last 11 years. His tenure, which expires by year-end, will be extended for another three years.
This move came on the back of Axiata Group Bhd’s group-wide transformation programme, which will see the acceleration of its digital programmes, development of innovative technologies and/or business models, industry consolidation and merger integration, costs restructuring as well as support operating companies turnaround programmes.
Inclusive of Shazalli, Axiata had also made more changes involving multiple senior-level appointments.
