[SINGAPORE] Frasers Property’s emerging markets chief executive Lim Hua Tiong will take on the additional role of helming its Thailand unit from Oct 1.

He will replace Thanapol Sirithanachai, who will step down from the role, but will continue to serve on the board of Frasers Property Thailand.

Sirithanachai, also known as “Woody”, was appointed CEO of Frasers Property Thailand in June 2020. Prior to joining the group, he was the president of Thai property development company Golden Land Property Development.

Frasers Property called the move a “strategic leadership transition” that reflects the “continued growth and maturity of its business in the market”.

“This change marks an important step in strengthening leadership alignment,” it added in a bourse filing on Wednesday (Sep 10).

Group CEO Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi thanked Sirithanachai for his leadership and contributions to Frasers Property Thailand.
