Effective Feb. 1, Gokongwei is stepping down as RLC president and CEO, a position he has held since January last year.
He will continue to provide strategic guidance to the company moving forward as he will keep his role as executive chairman.
RLC’s board lauded Gokongwei’s exceptional leadership and invaluable contributions during his tenure as its president and CEO.
