"Five days later, he returned home with a series of essential supplies, marking a turning point in Vietnamese history," the magazine emphasized.
According to the British magazine, in the following years, as "captain", Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen continuously promoted the incredible transformation process, contributing to making Vietnam an emerging economic power in Asia and the aviation industry played a central role in that driving force.
The magazine's introduction of Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen emphasized that, in addition to his leadership role in one of the strongest enterprises in Vietnam, IPPG, Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen is also the Chairman of SASCO and Cam Ranh International Airport.
