Former APL head lands health care gig

Eng

   Eng Aik Meng, former president of Singapore-based liner carrier APL, has joined an Indian-based health care conglomerate as its new chief operating officer, according to news reports.
   Eng will be charged with developing Fortis Healthcare’s business outside of India, primarily across Asia and Australia.
   He left APL at the end of August to pursue opportunities outside shipping. He had spent most of the last 18 years with APL, leaving briefly in 2007 before returning in 2008 to take over the reins at the shipping line when former president Ron Widdows was named chief executive officer of parent company NOL.
   Ken Glenn replaced Eng as APL president.
