Jeppesen Marine opened on 1 May a dedicated sales office in Singapore that will also serve markets in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. Appointed as regional sales manager for this new office was Dr. Haw L. Wong, who has steadily built up Jeppesen Marine’s customer base in the region as a distributor, under the
C-MAP brand.
“We have built up our market share in Southeast Asia, while this market has experienced tremendous growth as home to shipowners and ship operators,” said Jeppesen Marine senior sales manager Børge Hetland. “We believe that, with a dedicated office in this market, we will be able to offer great customer service, and grow even more robustly in the region.”
Dr. Haw L. Wong has a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of British Columbia, and experience from the Singapore Navy and Det Norske Veritas. Most recently, he led the Mari-Sys marine consultancy, which has distributed digital charts for Jeppesen Marine since 2003.
