The Board has confirmed the appointment of Leonard Fine CA (SA) as the Board's Senior Independent Director.

Over the last 16 years, he has worked extensively throughout Asia on some of the most transformational and milestone privatisation and corporate acquisition projects especially in India, China, Malaysia, Singapore and ASEAN.

 

In recent years, as a venture capitalist and principal investor, he has been involved in the small and medium enterprise sector in Europe, Asia and Africa and latterly was CEO of GMR Group's International Division, one of the world's largest owner operator's of energy and transport infrastructure and the owner of Delhi Daredevils, the India Premier League cricket team.

 

Mr Murugason is a Singapore national and qualified in London as a barrister. He was educated at Dulwich College and obtained law degrees from London and Oxford University.

Mr Murugason is interested in 750,000 shares, representing 4.86 % of the issued share capital of the Company.

Chairman of Parallel Media Group, David Ciclitira announcing the Board Changes said:

 

"I am immensely grateful to Edward Adams for his long term service to PMG and his help to me personally on a number of issues that the Company has faced in the past trading years.

 

However the recent placing has brought with it new shareholders who wish to play a part in the future growth of PMG. Ranjit has an impeccable City pedigree and brings to the Board a depth of experience of the Asian financial markets which will help me and PMG as we grow our business in this expanding and prosperous market.

 

Leonard Fine has worked with me for 15 years and has chaired our Audit and Remuneration Committees. He understands perfectly the issues and challenges that PMG faces and our ambition for growth. As such he is perfect to be our Senior Independent Director."
