Corporate affairs MD to leave Temasek

TEMASEK Holdings' managing director of corporate affairs Myrna Thomas is set to leave the investment firm.
The former newscaster was appointed in April 2006 as the firm's first managing director of corporate affairs. The function includes handling public relations.
The top-level appointment was seen then as an effort to boost Temasek's public image, as high-profile acquisitions such as Shin Corp in Thailand aroused much controversy, as well as a move to beef up its relationships with overseas media.
Yesterday, when contacted, Temasek Holdings said in a statement: 'Myrna Thomas's decision to leave Temasek is part of the normal executive movements within the company.'
Temasek has weathered the recent financial crisis well. Its latest Temasek Report showed that its portfolio had rebounded to $186 billion as of March 31.
Since 2004, Temasek has issued annual reports detailing the performance of its assets as a move towards increased transparency and disclosure.
One of its recent reports, the 2008 Temasek Review, clinched several regional and international public relations accolades for its design excellence and clarity.
It was named the financial communications campaign of the year at the Asia-Pacific PR Awards.
The report also garnered a gold award in the 'financials - capital markets' category for annual reports at the Vision Awards, organised by the League of American Communications Professionals.
Ms Thomas, who previously worked at public relations agency Hill & Knowlton as well as at Caltex/Chevron, will leave by the end of the year, it is believed.
There have been several senior-level appointments at Temasek during the last few months. Among them is former Singapore Exchange chief executive officer Hsieh Fu Hua, who was appointed executive director and president from Aug 1.
Mr Dilhan Pillay Sandrasegara, co-founder of WongPartnership, is joining Temasek as head of portfolio management, and taking on a second role as co-head of Singapore.
Most recently, Temasek hired a top Bank of America veteran, Mr Gregory Curl, as president to oversee its interests in the financial services and strategic engagements in the Americas.
