We have donated 13 billion VND to this charity fund to support education programs, such as school buildings, student scholarships. Apart from providing excellent service to our customers, this is how ACE Life gains trust and recognition in the country”, Lam Hai Tuan added.

 

The individual award “Global Ethics in Business Ambassador” was selected based on the strict criteria to reward excellent leaders who have not only led an organization to business success but have implemented social responsibility, and respected and protected human rights, as well as business ethics.
