Lee Hyuk, Secretary General of ASEAN-Korea Center told the World Knowledge Forum last Saturday in South Korea that the award recognizes Vietjet’s qualified and creative service, adding that he hopes it will encourage Vietjet to develop more business in South Korea. The two countries’ passenger turnover last year was 5 million, including 2 million served by Vietjet.

This year’s World Knowledge Forum attracted leading businessmen, speakers, and politicians, including Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid and former US Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen.
