Singapore Post loses yet another top executive

Chairman Lim will step down in July.

Another top executive has opted to leave Singapore Post, the company revealed in a stock exchange filing late Friday.

Chairman Lim Ho Kee will step down as a director at the company's Annual General Meeting, which will be held in July 2016. Lim revealed his intent to leave his post at the conclusion of SingPost's financial year on March 31.

Lim's exit comes barely four months after chief executive Wolfgang Baier revealed that he is leaving the company "to pursue new endeavours".

When Baier announced his resignation in December 2015, SingPost had stated that Chairman Lim will "step up his involvement" to guide the management "over and above" his normal capacity as Chairman.

Lim said that he is stepping down because of family commitments.

"I have been planning to step down now for almost three years but had felt compelled to stay and guide management," he said in a letter to SingPost's board.

SingPost's board has unanimously agreed to appoint board member Low Teck Seng as Chairman, subject to regulatory approval.

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.
