Vincent Yong, the new Managing Director of Indonesia for DHL Global Forwarding, the leading international provider of air, sea and road freight services, is no stranger to complicated situations.
As Chief Operating Officer of DHL Global Forwarding Thailand, Yong steered his team through political upheaval in 2006, catastrophic floods in 2011 and numerous changes to the country’s transport infrastructure — significantly expanding the business and consolidating operations in a 100,000-sqft Multimodal Hub at Suvarnabhumi Airport in the process.
“Vincent has proven time and again his ability to overcome even the most unexpected and testing of situations in Southeast Asia’s logistics sphere,” said Thomas Tieber, CEO, DHL Global Forwarding ASEAN and South Asia. “I have full confidence that his skills and cross-disciplinary expertise will see him take our business in Indonesia to new heights — and inspire pride in our services amongst both employees and customers alike — as the country continues to develop and mature at speed.”
