Communications and network solutions provider Nera Telecommunications has appointed Chong Hoi Ming as CEO and executive director.

As part of his role – which kicked off on Feb 7 – Chong will lead the group by charting its next phase of growth in systems integration and technology-related areas.

A veteran in the IT industry, Chong brings with him over 26 years of experience in corporate leadership including change and general management.
