In addition, Mr. Pham Anh Duong will resign as AAA’s Chairman of the Board of Directors to focus on the role of Chairman of the Board of the Directors of An Phat Holdings – AAA’s parent company, concentrating on the investment in new segments. Specifically, the first area is the industrial real estate segment which currently brings great revenue and profits to the Group. The second one is the construction of Southeast Asia’s largest green material manufacturing plant – a decisive project in promoting the green growth strategy and completing its green circular ecosystem. The last area is the market expansion in the context that the Group is looking for opportunities to diversify markets and avoid depending on certain markets.

Meanwhile, Mr. Nguyen Le Trung also resigned as AAA’s member of Board of Directors to focus on the position of General Director of AAA, being responsible for operating production and business activities and giving orientation on production and financial issues of the Group as Vice Chairman of An Phat Holdings.

However, the Company’s development orientation will ensure consistency in accordance with the Group’s orientation as the members of AAA’s Board of Directors are also key members at APH.
