“I would like to thank the Ministry of Finance for the trust and belief in me for my appointment as the chairman of TNB. As chairman, I am responsible to all shareholders and most importantly the trustees,” said Hasan in a statement this evening.
“I hope the board and management will continue working together to achieve a better, brighter future for the company and nation.”
