APMG-International Celebrates Official Launch of Kuala Lumpur Office
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, July 26 / PRNewswire-AsiaNet / -
APMG-International is delighted to announce the official launch of its operations in South East Asia. Based
in Malaysia's Petronas Towers, Kuala Lumpur, the office will be managed by Mun-Kit CHOONG.
APMG-International is responsible for managing the certification schemes associated with OGC's Best
Management Practice, such as PRINCE2(R), ITIL(R) MSP(R), P3O(R) and P3M3(R). Its suite of certifications
also includes specialist qualifications in Change Management and Service Catalogue.
Richard PHARRO, CEO of APMG-International, presided over the official launch, which took place on 26th
July 2010 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Kuala Lumpur. He said, "This is a special moment for our
accredited training community. Although we have many accredited organizations working in South East Asia,
they have not had the service of a local office. We are delighted to redress this balance and expect more
training companies will choose to become certified with APMG so they can offer our qualifications in this
growing market."
Mun-Kit CHOONG, who will be managing the APMG office in Malaysia, was originally an accountant. He
has many years experience in finance roles in the Asia Pacific ICT industry with Multi-National Companies
(MNCs) including Compaq, IBM, Alcatel and Quint Wellington Redwood.
"This is a very exciting time for me and for APMG as we roll out our services in Malaysia as well as the
South East Asia region. I am looking forward to the challenges ahead and hope our presence here in KL will
encourage both training organizations and candidates to find out more about our certification schemes" Mun-
Kit said.
