It says throughout his distinguished career, Mr. Chung has held several senior roles, including financial controller in various industries and as a consultant.
His mandate will include advancing the division's efforts to combat financial crimes, overseeing the implementation of operational policies and systems aligned with the FID Act and strengthening asset recovery initiatives in accordance with the Proceeds of Crime Act.
