Vivienne Tan revamps key positions at PAL

Vivienne Tan, officer-in-charge of Philippine Airlines on Tuesday said work is ongoing at the flag carrier to make the company more efficient and productive by improving business procedures.

This means “how we do things,” Tan said on the heels of appointing new people to key positions.

“Most importantly, I call on all of you to stand united as you carry out your duties and responsibilities in PAL,” she added.

In a statement, PAL announced the appointment of two key executives—Eugene Go as chief commercial and marketing officer, and Rosemarie Katalbas as senior vice president for Human Capital Department.

Go has over 27 years of experience in the market and commercial field, serving for companies such as Unilever and Johnson & Johnson, according to PAL.

Meanwhile, Katalbas is said to have global experience various industries such as electronics manufacturing, solar energy, pharmaceutical, and financial services.

Vivienne, the daughter of PAL owner Lucio Tan, took over as the company’s OIC in June after Jaime Bautista retired. —Jon Viktor Cabuenas/VDS, GMA News
