Google Cloud expands in Malaysia, appoints Hana Raja as country manager

Google Cloud has appointed Hana Raja as the country manager for Malaysia. In her new role, she will manage local go-to-market strategies and operations for both Google Cloud and Google Workspace.

Raja will report to Serene Sia, Google Cloud’s country director for Malaysia and Singapore.

She has over 16 years of experience from leadership positions at Cisco and Bain & Company. During her career, she collaborated with executive teams across various sectors, including financial services, healthcare, and the public sector.
