MobileOne (M1) CEO Mr. Neil Montefiore has decided to step down as M1's CEO with effect from 2nd Feb 2009, in order to 'pursue other personal interest'. He had been the CEO of the telecommunication company since 1996. It's almost 12 years. Under his leadership, M1 started to expand into the mobile phone industry and got listed in 2002.

Nevertheless, M1 has appointed its Chief Financial Officer, Karen Kooi Lee Wah as appointing CEO, while maintaining her existing role of CFO. As published in the Company website, Karen Kooi seems to be a qualified person:
