He is also part of the councils of members at Berjaya-Hotay JV, which owns Sheraton Hanoi Hotel; Berjaya-Handico12 Limited Company, and Berjaya-D2d Company Limited.

This year, Vincom Retail, the largest mall operator in the country, has targeted VND9.5 trillion ($383 million) in revenues and VND4.42 trillion in net profit, both slightly higher than its 2023 results.

It plans to launch six shopping malls this year, comprising two Vincom Mega Mall and four Vincom Plaza outlets, raising its national tally to 89 across 48 of 63 cities/provinces.
