YS Park Visits
P
ark Yong Sung, the visionary former Chairman of the Doosan Group and current Chairman of Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction. He is the person generally attributed with being the “Father” of Doosan Vina and he visited his growing offspring in March. Since conceiving the plan and launching the company YS Park has made it a priority to visit as often as his schedule permits which unfortunately it’s not as often as we’d like. His time constraints are so intense because in addition to nurturing Doosan Vina and Chung Ang University in Seoul he is also President of the Korean Olympic Committee which is deeply involved in the preparations for the 2018 Winter Olympics to be held in Pyeongchang, South Korea in February 2018 between the 9th and 25th. Park’s visit to Vietnam was timed to the minute and organized to maximize effect that allowed time to review progress, tour the facility and meet with employees. He was welcomed by Ryu Hang Ha - Senior Vice President, Kim Yong Soo - Vice President, Kim Gwang Ju, Director of Management and Human Resources and other members of Doosan Vina’s Board. In spite of an extremely tight schedule Park took time to tour the 110 hectare complex to meet employees and stress the importance of safety and a clean environment. During his stay, Park said he was especially pleased with recent achievements and specifically with
Doosan Vina’s successful certification as an ASME nuclear equipment supplier. He also mentioned that he’s looking forward to returning again soon to celebrate even more success with his friends and colleagues here at Doosan Vina.

To meet the needs of the two shops, the Design Division is currently divided into three departments, Steel Structure Design, Pressure Part Design and Duct Design.
Steel Structure The Tekla section gets its name from the sophisticated cutting edge software they use named Tekla. They use the program to design structural steel buildings to house and support the massive boilers made in the Boiler shop for a power plant. The Stress Analysis and Detail sections are both involved in stress analysis and design for steel structures for power plants. They are also involved as technical advisors for fabrication and site erection solutions.

to find more ducks on the mystery man (they didn’t know it was their husband) than the other ladies in 60 seconds. The resulting search by the ladies had the audience in stitches as the ladies were torn between wanting to win the prizes and being too familiar with their mystery man. Interspersed between the entertainment, speeches and games “lucky draws” were held and at the end of the event a cake was brought out and all ladies received a piece of cake, a bouquet of flowers and a special gift to mark the occasion and most importantly, to be sure that they knew exactly how much their hard work was appreciated.

MARRIED & WORKING TOGETHER
A Labor of Love
W
hat do you think it would be like if both you and your spouse worked for the same company? Do you think working together would be a plus or a minus? Would it nurture the relationship or be too much of a good thing? To answer this question we decided to explore the issue with some of the 43 married couples at Doosan Vina where both husband and wife work at the company and who incidentally, represent 4% of our workforce. Dynamite is a popular way of saying how great something is and when you take the first names of one of our married couples, Tran Khac Tuyen of OE and his wife Nguyen Thi Tam from Accounting you get Tuyen “n” Tam, or TNT which is as they say is “Dynamite!” Tuyen is from Ha Nam Province, which is more than Nguyen Thi Tam (Accounting) and Tran Khac Tuyen (OE) a 1,000 kilometers north of Doosan Vina and Tam’s home is here in Central Vietnam’s Quang Ngai Prov- ince where Doosan Vina is located. Tuyen has worked at Doosan Vina for almost five years and Tam will celebrate four years in September. “TNT” met at a friend’s wedding, Tuyen was on the bus to the wedding when he spotted a beautiful lady. He knew he had only a short while to impress her and so he pulled out all the stops and grabbed the seat next to her at the party, one which he has now happily continued to occupy at all parties since. When we asked Tuyen whether working together was good or bad he said, “Our two departments are quite close and we see each other rather often. It is a great benefit to have Tam so near; we can share things instantly and not have to wait until evening. Since Nguyen Thi Thuy and Pham Thanh Hung of Boiler shop our wedding last year and moving into Van Tuong

(Doosan Vina’s married couple’s apartment complex) I think our relationship has blossomed, she is not only my wife, but also my best friend. We share everything and it has been great, that’s not to say there are never any disagreements, but that is just a part of life and love is the glue that gets us through it all.” Another of our couples; Bui Xuan Truong of Material Handling Systems and Le Thi Huyen Trang who works in the Public Relations & Communications Department were drawn together at birth, not theirs, but that of a mutual friend at Dalat University who invited them both to her birthday party in 2006. As chance would have it they met and fell madly in love. Truong came to work at Doosan Vina in May of 2008 when he graduated and Trang followed later in 2010 after finishing school and spending a year working for another company. The couple married in 2012 and a daughter joined the family in 2013. “No matter how much you are in love one still needs to respect the other, everyone needs to have time and space for themselves, it’s not good for a relationship to exclude everything else, we feel it’s important to reserve time for friends or doing things that we may like that the other doesn’t; and that’s OK, it healthy and good for the marriage,” said Truong. “Our plan is to save so we can one day own our own home, car… We know that it is going to require a lot of hard work and patience, but anything worth having is worth the wait!” Trang added, “Working at the same company allows us more family time and also gives us a better understanding of what the other is experiencing in their career, which makes for a smoother relationship.” Our final couple is Pham Thanh Hung and Nguyen Thi Thuy, they both work in the Boiler Shop and met here at the company. Thuy was on an internship program with Da Nang University of Foreign Languages and
came to Doosan Vina expecting to gain some experience, but not necessarily one that would prove to be life changing. Cup i d has indeed been busy at Doosan Vina and by all indications he still lurks in the halls and shops all across our 110 hectare complex, waiting and w a t c h i n g Bui Xuan Truong (MHS) and Le Thi Huyen Trang (PR) with their eight month old daughter Huong Giang for unsuspecting couples to work his magic on. The next chapter in this story is waiting to be written and will happen when the first offspring from one of these couples grows up and joins the Doosan Vina family as a second generation employee, continuing the tradition started by his or her parents!
