With more than 25 years of experience in the automotive business in Asia, Wong was previously the director of retail management with Volkswagen (China) Import Co Ltd.

He has done a good job in contributing to the development of the brand and company in Malaysia and it is time for him to move on to another role within Volkswagen.”

“Leonard Wong’s contribution in the network development of dealers under the Volkswagen brand is highly valued and I am confident he will repeat his exemplary performance at his new region management portfolio,” said Tay.
