Mr Lim is the chairman of the Singapore Business Federation and The Esplanade.
He is concurrently a board director of Enterprise Singapore, and an independent non-executive director of Sembcorp Industries Limited, DLF Cyber City Developers Limited and China Vanke.
He also serves as Singapore’s non-resident High Commissioner to the Republic of Mauritius, said MOF.
Mr Lim previously served as chairman of Workforce Singapore and as a director of the Housing and Development Board.
He was also president and group CEO of CapitaLand Limited from 2013 to 2018, CEO of The Ascott Limited from 2009 to 2012, and CEO of CapitaLand China from 2000 to 2009.
“Given his extensive experience in large-scale project development and strong leadership track record, Mr Lim is well positioned to lead CAG as it embarks on the next phase of growth of Changi Airport, with the construction of Terminal 5,” said MOF.
The ministry thanked Mr Tan for his contributions as CAG chairman and his ongoing support as a board director, and also welcomed Mr Lim as CAG’s new chairman.
The ministry added that Changi Airport is on track to full recovery in 2025, with passenger traffic in recent months having reached pre-pandemic levels.
The airport has also reinstated its connectivity to about 160 cities served by a network of over 100 airlines.
