15:51 | 15/03/2018
CEO and General Director Park Hong Ook meets with Vietnam Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc at his office in Ha Noi.
Park brings an extensive portfolio of management expertise to the CEO position in Vietnam. His plan is to leverage that experience to build on Doosan’s Vina’s successes in infrastructure development for the power, water and port logistics sectors in Vietnam and around the world.
Since assuming his new position on 19 December 2017, he has worked hard to enlist the support of his team of over 2,000 Vietnamese professionals and 40 Korean engineers so that they can seamlessly communicate and work as a cohesive force in heavy industry.
In a “Meet the CEO” meeting with over 200 management staff Park outlined his strategies and said, “I feel our priorities need to be: strategic, basic and core to our business, so to achieve our goals we will focus on three areas; safety, quality and communication. These are foundational and our victory depends on them so we will be vigilant in executing initiatives that will provide accountability and structure so that we will be certain of realizing our objectives!”
In a meeting with Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc, Park was encouraged to continue and expand the good work Doosan has done in the country.
He assured the PM that Doosan will always look for opportunities to support Vietnam’s growth and development and be a company that will continue its extensive CSR programs in Vietnam.
Since opening in 2009 Doosan Vina with its domestic and international partners has completed or is now constructing four power plants in Vietnam. When commissioned these four power plants will add a total of nearly five GW’s of power to the national grid which are critical to development. In Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs the company has invested nearly $6.5 million in projects to advance education, healthcare and housing.
