Dell Gets High-level Reshuffle

The world's top computer-maker, Dell Incorporated, has reshuffled the management of its China operations, while setting new aims in one of the world's fastest growing PC markets, China Daily reported.

Foo Piau Phang will retire as president of Dell China, the firm announced on October 27.

David Miller, who has partnered with Foo since January in a joint-leadership structure, will continue as president, directing Dell's business on the Chinese mainland and in Hong Kong.

Foo, since joining Dell in 2001, managed to triple revenues of Dell’s China operations and turned Dell into the third-largest computer-systems company in China.

Dell is the most successful foreign PC maker in China. The market has long been dominated by local vendors Lenovo and Founder Technology.

 Dell is also currently the top-standard server maker in China in terms of unit shipments.

Foo had managed to double Dell's share of China's server market to 10 per cent over the past four years, the firm said.

Under Foo's leadership, China became the first strategic market outside the United States.
