Let’s explore the ASEAN

Beyond our ASEAN Development program, we are thrilled to have the GETS program that connects employees from our subsidiary of MUFG across ASEAN. This initiative allows staff from four banks - Bank Danamon, VietinBank, Security Bank, and Krungsri - to participate in a short-term 2–3-month on-the-job training (OJT) program. The key objectives of this program are: 1. Developing our talent 2. Building global awareness 3. Strengthening regional networking This year, we were delighted to host Pedro Syamora from Bank Danamon PT Bank Danamon Indonesia, Tbk. and Nguyen Tran Hoang Ha from VietinBank VietinBank in Krungsri's Corporate & Investment Banking Group Planning Division - Performance Analyst team. The program has allowed them to develop a deeper understanding of cross-border business operations while strengthening their communication and collaboration skills. We aim to empower our employees to become future leaders who can drive innovation and growth across the ASEAN market.

Many companies have been interested to diversify their supply chain options and/or built operations in Southeast Asia for better market reach. I am happy to share information from our Partner in Malaysia Chanchal Lahiri that certainly is able to support these companies. #AIMSInternational #ExecutiveSearch #FinancialServices #Malaysia
