Sands China has appointed Siu Hera Kitwan as an independent non-executive director, as Steven Zygmunt Strasser retires from the board after more than 13 years.
The changes took effect on September 23rd, according to the company’s Hong Kong stock exchange filing. Siu also joined the audit committee.
Strasser, who had served on the board since May 2013, stepped down to devote more time to other personal engagements. He will remain with Sands China as a consultant, continuing to work with its senior management team.
Siu, 67, led Cisco’s Greater China business until her retirement in 2020. She also holds board positions at ASMPT, Goodyear and Vallourec.
She will receive approximately $270,000 in annual director’s fees, with no additional fee for serving on the audit committee.
Sands China also appointed existing independent non-executive director Chung Kit Yi Kitty to chair its remuneration committee, a role previously held by Strasser.
