Chief Executive Officer of Indorama, Mr. Aloke Lohia, said, "We are pleased to welcome Richard into the group as we want to send a message to investors that we will take disclosure and transparency very seriously following our listing of Indorama Ventures in 2010. We have developed a very good domestic reputation among investors for our corporate governance under our listing of Indorama Polymers and we intend to parlay that into an excellent global reputation in future."
