Hassan, Sukhdave make comeback to corporate Malaysia

PETALING JAYA: The Prime Minister's Office has appointed Tan Sri Mohd Hassan Marican and Dr Sukhdave Singh to the board of Khazanah Nasional Bhd, marking the comeback of the two to corporate Malaysia.
Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad accepted the en masse offer of resignation by the board of Khazanah Nasional headed by long serving Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar last week.
Hassan is former president and CEO of Petroliam Nasional Bhd and is a current member of the Council of Eminent Persons.
Sukhdave retired early as deputy governor of Bank Negara Malaysia late last year amid talk of a fallout with the governor then.
Other appointments announced in a statement by Khazanah Nasional included Mahathir as chairman, and Economics Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali and Goh Ching Yin as other directors of the state investment fund.
