Rantau+ Founder joins global comms network

Global communications professionals network, Reputation Advisors International (RAI), has welcomed Rantau+ Founder, Janitha Sukumaran, as its newest member.

Janitha founded Rantau+ in 1992 and continues to lead the Malaysia-based independent communications consultancy. She has spent more than 35 years working across journalism, strategic communications, reputation management, and crisis advisory.

During her career, Janitha has advised governments, multinational corporations, publicly traded companies, and purpose-driven organisations across Asia.

“I look forward to contributing an Asian perspective while strengthening the collective intelligence we can offer clients across the market.”

“We are pleased to welcome Janitha Sukumaran as our newest member," said James F. Haggerty, CEO of PRCG Haggerty LLC in New York and President of Reputation Advisors International.
