ASAT Holdings Strengthens Management Team With Appointment Of Assembly and Test Industry
Veteran John R. McMillan As Senior VP of Quality And Engineering
HONG KONG and MILPITAS, Calif.,
March 20, 2008 ASAT Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: ASTT) (the Company), a global provider of semiconductor package design, assembly and test services,
today announced the appointment of John R. McMillan to the newly created position of Senior Vice President of Quality and Engineering. Mr. McMillan is scheduled to begin his new role effective April 1, 2008 and will be located in Dongguan,
China.
Mr. McMillan brings more than 20 years of semiconductor assembly and test experience to ASAT, including 19 years in various management
positions at Amkor Technology where he was most recently Vice President of Quality, Reliability and Manufacturing Engineering. While at Amkor, Mr. McMillan also served in several senior level positions in advanced product development and
engineering management.
John brings to ASAT more than two decades of successful senior level quality, engineering and operations experience in the
semiconductor assembly and test industry, said Tung Lok Li, acting chief executive officer of ASAT Holdings Limited. We believe his addition to our management team further validates ASATs improving position within the test and
assembly industry.
In addition to his experience at Amkor, Mr. McMillan served as Director of Quality and Engineering at Tensolite Company, a
division of the Carlisle Corporation, where he revamped quality control procedures and managed the transition of manufacturing operations to China from the U.S.
ASAT has continued to improve manufacturing quality since the completion of its move to Dongguan last year, said Mr. McMillan. I look forward to taking ASATs quality benchmarks to the next level by implementing
the proven quality processes and techniques Ive learned through my many years of experience in the assembly and test industry.
