My dear friends,<\/p>\n
I have gone MIA for the last 3 months and have not continued with the "investment" gatherings. I am sorry I did not update earlier.<\/p>\n
I am now living in Ho Chi Minh City for the last 2months plus. Yes, I have relocated and have resigned from Phillip Securities, and some fellow SHCians already knew. Sad to say, I will not be able to arrange our "Investment" meetings anymore and participate in all the exciting events that I used to attend, like getting drunk at Ah Nee’s party at MAS.<\/p>\n
My old friend has invited me to join him and help expand his biz in Vietnam, and I took the plunge. I now hold a 3-year residency visa in Vietnam, hopefully can find a affordable ‘paradise’ to retire in the longer term.<\/p>\n
I am the Singapore director of a 5-year old Korean investment advisory and real eastate company based in HCMC. We provide consultancy to corporate customers to help start their business and quickly secure the appropriate business licenses (not easy and can take forever) in Vietnam.<\/p>\n
We also provide real estate agency, investment and management services to help foreign companies and individuals (facing language, cultural and legal issues) to lease or buy land (for building factories, resorts, etc), buildings, offices, retail outlets, apartments (condo) and villas (landed) in Vietnam.<\/p>\n
I am still learning anything and everything Vietnamese. It has been quite an experience so far (some of you may know what I mean), and busy settling down (no time for alot of things). <\/p>\n
I shall be most happy to catch up with SHCians living in HCMC, or meet anybody coming over for holidays. I shall pick you up in my company car at the airport. I shall be happy to enlighten those who may be keen to invest and retire in Vietnam, I think it is a very attractive idea. Drop me a post and I shall try to reply asap (sorry in advance if few days late). I am not advertising or asking anybody to do this, but if you ask I shall reply.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, I shall keep my dear friends posted here. So now you want to know what the …. he does at night?<\/p>\n
