THE Place Holdings on Tuesday said Leow Soon Guan has ceased to be the chief strategy officer (CSO) of the company, while Kam Tin Seah has ceased to be chief operating officer (COO), due to divergent opinions on the firm's operational matters and strategic direction.
CEO Fan Xianyong, together with the rest of the management team, will assume their responsibilities.
The Place Holdings is an investment holding company whose portfolio coverage includes the investment, development and management of media, integrated tourism and tourism-related "new retail" businesses. (see amendment note)
The Place Holdings shares closed flat at 1.9 Singapore cents on Tuesday.
