Hoa Sen leader practices Buddhism

“Actually, I wanted to become a Buddhist monk when I turned 30. I am planning to transfer everything to a deserving person by 2026. By that time, I will have sold all of my shares to other investors,” said Le Phuoc Vu, president of Hoa Sen Group, at Hoa Sen’s shareholders’ meeting.

“I will leave with responsibility, not with a bunch of money. Even on the mountain, I will still direct the enterprise’s operation,” he said.

The head of Hoa Sen Group said Hoa Sen’s revenue may reach $5 billion in the next five years if it is well managed.

“The board of directors and I will choose the successor,” he told shareholders, adding that he had bought a land plot in 1996 and built a pagoda in Bao Loc City in Lam Dong province in preparation for the plan.

Ten years ago, Pham Minh Huong, chair of VnDirect, a securities company, handed over the management of the company to her son. At that moment, Nguyen Hoang Giang became CEO at the age of 24, the youngest CEO in the history of the Vietnam’s stock market.

Huong said in a local newspaper: “I feel regret that only at the age of nearly 50 could I have time to learn more about myself, the meaning of life and the mission of each person since their birth."

Huong has become a vegetarian. She has a shop that sells organic and vegetarian food to spread this way of living as a good choice.

Huynh Uy Dung, known as Dung Lo Voi (Dung Lime Kiln), has recently stated that he has stopped doing business to gather strength for charities by selling his assets accumulated over the last 40 years to help the needy.

Dung has handed over his power to his wife, Nguyen Phuong Hang, who is now CEO of Dai Nam JSC.
