Motorola Names Mohd Asri as New Country President for Malaysia

Motorola Inc. has appointed Mohd Asri Hassan Sabri as country president for Motorola Malaysia, effective immediately. He succeeds Dato’ Robin Seo Eng Lin who retired earlier this month after 27-year career with the company.

Mohd Asri will work with the country team to further enhance Motorola’s business presence in Malaysia as a key employer and investor. He will also continue to lead the sales operations for the two-way radio network systems business of Motorola’s Networks & Enterprise business in Malaysia. He will also drive customer relations and business development for the government and enterprise market segments, including security divisions within the Ministries and public safety agencies such as the Military Armed Forces and the Police.

Prior to Motorola, Mohd Asri was with Nokia Malaysia where he held various senior management positions in the wireless infrastructure business. Before that, he was with Digital Equipment/Compaq Corporation (now known as Hewlett-Packard) responsible for corporate business development and channels management.

Mohd Asri will be based in Kuala Lumpur.
