MANILA, PHILIPPINES - Media OutReach Newswire - 18 August 2025 - VinFast Philippines has been honored at the 2025 Legacy Awards for Business in the category of "Excellence in Strategic Mobility Innovation." The award recognizes the company's pioneering efforts in promoting sustainable transportation, inclusive economic growth, and positive community impact across the Philippines. The Legacy Awards, first launched in 2020, are a prestigious recognition platform that celebrates businesses, brands, and individuals who have successfully integrated sustainable development thinking into their core strategies. The program also highlights impactful business social responsibility (BSR) initiatives that address environmental, economic, and human development issues. With the guiding message,"Because your business is your legacy," the awards not only serve as a platform to honor achievements but also as a call to action for the business community to invest more meaningfully in projects that benefit society and future generations. VinFast Philippines' recognition at this year's awards reflects the brand's long-term commitment to the Philippines. The company has not only introduced a line-up of smart, high-quality, eco-friendly electric vehicles but also actively contributed to community development through a series of meaningful social responsibility initiatives. Mr. Abner Berdos, Deputy CEO of Sales and Dealer Network Development at VinFast Philippines, shared: "We are truly honored to receive the Legacy Award for Business – a meaningful recognition of the journey VinFast is committed to in the Philippines. From day one, our mission has extended beyond delivering high-quality EVs; we strive to be a catalyst for positive change – where green mobility, sustainable growth, and social responsibility go hand in hand. Through breakthrough programs such as affordable financing schemes and partnerships to expand nationwide charging infrastructure, we aim to make EV ownership accessible to all Filipinos, regardless of location or income level. This award affirms our belief that a business can thrive while keeping people and the planet at the heart of every strategic decision, contributing to a cleaner environment, economic progress, and a more sustainable future for generations to come." The Chairman of the organizing committee, Director Wilfredo Jordan Lemque Jr., noted: "VinFast Philippines has made a significant mark on the journey toward sustainable mobility in our country. More than just an EV company, VinFast is building a people-centered smart transportation ecosystem with strong commitments to the environment, education, and community development. This perfectly embodies the spirit of the Legacy Awards: celebrating businesses that leave behind more than just profit – they leave behind purpose. We believe VinFast will continue to serve as a model for a new generation of enterprises – innovative, responsible, and driven by action." Nearly a year since entering the Philippine market, VinFast continues to scale up its operations with a portfolio of smart electric vehicles, flexible sales programs, and a growing aftersales support network.

From Differentiation to Emotional Connection: 180 Brand Talk 6.0 Returns to Help Brands Win Hearts!
Many SMEs start by asking how to make customers choose their brand. But the real question is—if customers don't like a brand, there's no reason for them to choose it. KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 18 August 2025 – To break through this challenge, it all comes down to one thing: building an emotional connection that wins hearts. Brand positioning means that when customers encounter a problem, they immediately think of that brand. This can't be achieved simply by spending on ads—it takes the right approach to make that brand truly resonate. Addressing the pain points and blind spots of SMEs, Chan Fong has hosted five editions of 180 Brand Talk over the past three years, helping hundreds of businesses uncover their unique points of differentiation and build a brand positioning that is distinctly their own. This session's speaker, Chan Fong, is not only a well-known radio DJ but also a veteran advertising professional with 28 years of experience who, together with the team at 180 Degrees Brandcom, has spent more than two decades rebranding renowned brands such as OGAWA, CUCKOO, EcoWorld, Knife, BRAND's and more, as well as guiding countless SMEs from the ground up to establish a solid foundation and define their positioning. "Managing a brand isn't about creating demand, but recognising it," Chan Fong emphasises. A brand that truly wins hearts always has a clear image, a distinctive personality, and well-defined differentiation. From long-term observations, Chan Fong found that about 70–80% of SMEs in Malaysia are run by the Chinese community, yet many of these brands lack an emotional connection with consumers. Even with strong and distinctive points of differentiation, they often struggle to communicate them effectively due to the wrong approach. To address this, Chan Fong launched the 180 Brand Talk programme, drawing on practical experience to guide SMEs in defining their brand positioning and building emotional connections. What Makes This Programme Stand Out In the 180 Brand Talk programme, Chan Fong avoids abstract theories and marketing jargon. Drawing on 28 years of hands-on experience, the programme shares numerous local case studies that reflect the real challenges faced by Malaysian SMEs, enabling entrepreneurs to relate easily and apply the lessons learned. The programme also features dedicated discussion sessions with the 180 team, where participants can present their brand's pain points and receive practical, actionable advice. Whether they are new entrepreneurs taking their first steps or seasoned brand owners stuck at a standstill, this programme helps businesses find their next breakthrough. From Differentiation to Emotional Connection: 180 Brand Talk 6.0 Programme Details: Date: 9–10 September 2025 (Tuesday–Wednesday) Time: 10:00am–6:00pm Venue: Courtyard by Marriott KL South Remark: This programme is recognised under Malaysia's Human Resources Development Fund (HRDF). Eligible companies may apply for HRDF reimbursement claims. Special Offer: Register now and use promo code TN200 to enjoy an RM200 discount per ticket!
