In 2020, chairman Nguyen Van Dat appointed you as CEO of Phat Dat. Taking on this new responsibility, how did you feel back then? Throughout Phat Dat's 16-year history, the chairman and founder exerted his influence on every decision. In such a context, I found myself in a favourable situation thanks to the inherited strategic orientations from the chairman and the determined management team.

Hundreds of divers flock to the Han River and the Gulf of Da Nang in the eponymous city every day in search of a species of hard-shell clam gaining popularity on city restaurant menus. ‘Chip chip,’ a Vietnamese onomatopoeia for the chirping sounds of birds, is what local Vietnamese call these black-and-white hard-shell clams native to the Han River and the Gulf of Da Nang. Featured in a variety of Vietnamese dishes that go particularly well with cold beer, chip chips have earned their place in the stomachs of local residents and food-loving tourists, resulting in a boom in the ‘chip chip’ diving trade. As these clams normally hide themselves under muddy riverbeds, divers must submerge themselves by up to eight meters and use gloved hands in search of their prey.
