As the Director, Strategy & Investments, he will be working closely with Tan Sri Dato' Tan Kay Hock, the Executive Chairman of George Kent, on long term strategies, business development, investments including mergers & acquisitions for the Group. He will also be working on opportunities in complementary businesses in water infrastructure and rail transportation, which hitherto have been unexplored. George Kent to date has established itself as one of the largest System Integrators in rail transportation, having contributed to the expansion of Malaysia's urban rail networks projects, including the Ampang LRT line extension, the MRT2 and the LRT3 (which George Kent had exited from the joint venture in September 2021).
