About

Andrew Gale has achieved a great deal over the course of approximately eight years since moving from private practice into an in-house environment and specialising in telecommunications. Gale’s first in-house role was as a legal counsel in the telecommunications and infrastructure team of VicTrack, the Melbourne based rail land and infrastructure owner. In 2014, he took on a major challenge, relocating to Myanmar for the role of head of legal and regulatory at Digicel Myanmar Tower Company (MTC). In Myanmar, Gale was extremely successful as part of the senior management team during a period which saw the company grow from start-up to a value in excess of US$300m. Following the acquisition of MTC by edotco Group, a unit of telecoms firm Axiata Group, Gale was promoted to director of corporate affairs and planning, which included managing the legal and regulatory functions. Gale’s skill set was recognised further when he was eventually promoted to a regional role at edotco Group’s head office in Kuala Lumpur, where he has been group general counsel since December 2017. Gale leads the legal function across edotco Group’s six international markets.
