Boeing Opens Office In Malaysia (Oct. 8 )
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia---In an effort to enhance its operations in
the Southeast Asia region and to further develop a strong customer
focus, The Boeing Company has opened its new office in Kuala
Lumpur, Malaysia.
"Asia is a vibrant, growing economic power and home to an
increasing number of important customers and partners," said
Stanley Roth, Boeing vice president of International Relations,
Asia-Pacific. "The region continues to be a bright spot in the
global aerospace market, and we're confident that our customers
will continue to find ways to grow and prosper. We want to continue
to be a valuable business partner with our regional customers, and
this office enhances our ability to serve our customers more
effectively."
In August of this year, Paul Walters was named to the new position
of regional vice president, Southeast Asia, based in Kuala Lumpur.
Walters' role is to coordinate all Boeing company business
activities in a number of countries in the region, leading and
facilitating Boeing's strategy and globalization process in
Southeast Asia.
Walters and the Kuala Lumpur team are helping to expand Boeing's
profile and presence in the region beyond the company's Singapore
operation -- which is run by Boeing Senior Executive Doug Miller,
and Malaysia, where Boeing now is well-represented.
Boeing works closely with aerospace industry organizations, armed
forces and leading airlines in Asia, where the company's business
interests are numerable and growing.
"The strength of the region, coupled with its inherent growth
prospects, provide us with an excellent opportunity to expand our
globalization initiatives in a meaningful way," Roth said.
Boeing is the world's largest manufacturer of commercial and
military aircraft, and NASA's largest contractor. The company's
capabilities include helicopters, defense systems, missiles, rocket
engines, launch systems, satellites, advanced information and
communication systems, aviation support products and services,
financial services, a global-mobile communications system, and a
space-based air traffic management system.
