Chen Yiy Fon, currently an executive director, will become CEO – Operations, Chen Cherchi will become CEO – Finance and Treasury, and Chen Yiy Hwuan will become CEO – Hotels. Other changes will see Anthony Cheung King Man, currently Director of Capital Investment and Corporate Finance, promoted to Chief Financial Officer and Tan Sean Czoon, the current CFO, made Chief Financial Officer – Founder’s Office. Timothy McNally will remain as Chairman, Philip Lee Wai Tuck as Executive Deputy Chairman and Mike Ngai Wai Yip as Chief Operating Officer. Chen Yepern, Managing Director in the CEO Cabinet and another son of Dr Chen, will continue to lead the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) activities of the group. In announcing the changes, NagaCorp said Dr Chen has established a solid foundation for the company and it is “timely for [an] injection of new vitality into the management of the Group.” However, it stated, “[Dr Chen] shall continue to lead the Group and remains actively, strongly and firmly in grip to lead and manage the Group by providing directions and strategies as well as overseeing the day-to-day operations of the Group. “Together with the CEOs, the four of them shall work together as a team to lead and manage the Group to bring the Group to the next level of success.” NagaCorp operates NagaWorld, located in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. 金界控股 的創始人曾立強宣佈高級管理層的調任，正式委 任三個兒子同時擔任行政總裁，似有意加速接班計劃。 集團創始人曾立強的職位從現時的行政總裁調任至高 級行政總裁，即時生效，公司表示其將繼續監督集團的日 常運營。 現任執行董事Chen Yiy Fon將出任營運行政總 裁，Chen Cherchi將出任財務兼庫務行政總裁，而Chen Yiy Hwua將出任酒店行政總裁。 其他人事調整包括：集團的資本企業融資及投資董事 張競文調任為財務總監、陳善尊由財務總監調任為創辦人 辦公室財務總監。 Timothy Patrick McNally將繼續擔任主席，Philip Lee Wai Tuck將繼續擔任執行副主席，倪維業則繼續擔 任營運總監。 曾立強另一兒子、金界控股現任行政總裁辦公室董 事總經理Chen Yepern先生將繼續領導環境、社會及管治 （ESG）事務。 金界控股表示：「在創辦人的領導下，經過多年謹慎 的業務引領以及熟練且具策略性的管理，本集團取得了令 人稱讚的財務業績，並持續不斷宣派高股息。現在正是為 本集團管理層注入新活力的時候。」 但公司同時表示：「創辦人將通過提供方向、策略以 及監督本集團的日常營運，繼續積極、鼎力及堅定地領導 及管 理本集團。連同行政總裁在內，四位將作為一個團 隊共同領導及管理本集團，以帶領本集團更上一層樓。 」 金界控股目前經營位於柬埔寨金邊的NagaWorld。
