KUALA TERENGGANU: Timber firm Golden Pharos Bhd has appointed Terengganu Inc senior vice-president Mohd Roslan Mamat as its acting chief executive officer (CEO), effective today.

Mohd Roslan, 46, was seconded to oil palm plantation firm TDM Bhd — another Terengganu Inc subsidiary — as head of internal audit from January 2018 to November 2019, Golden Pharos said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.
He holds a Bachelor of Accounting degree from the International Islamic University Malaysia and professional qualifications as Chartered International Auditor from the Institute of Internal Auditors Malaysia and Chartered Islamic Finance Professional from the International Centre for Education in Islamic Finance.
