Kuwait's Zain Names Omar Al Omar As Acting CEO
Sunday, Oct 16, 2011
DUBAI (Zawya Dow Jones)--Mobile Telecommunications Co., better known as Zain , said Sunday it had named Omar Al Omar as its acting chief executive officer, replacing Khalid Al Omar who last week was appointed CEO and managing director of Zain 's Saudi unit.
Omar Al Omar previously was the chief operating officer of Zain Kuwait, a company spokesman told Zawya Dow Jones via telephone.
Zain Saudi Arabia Tuesday appointed Khalid Al Omar as CEO, following the resignation of Saad Al Barrak who's departure came after the failure of a joint bid for 25% of the Saudi mobile operator by Kingdom Holding and Bahrain's Batelco. The deal, estimated to be worth as much as $1.2 billion, failed due to disagreements with Zain Saudi Arabia's lenders, according to the firm's chairman Prince Hussam bin Saud.
