Entrepreneur Man Ngoc Anh: Get rich by strictly abiding by the laws

Entrepreneur Man Ngoc Anh, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hanaka Group Joint Stock Company, is one such figure: "He keeps steadfast in the path of legitimate wealth creation, laying the foundation for development on the supremacy of the law."

Starting a firm in the face of many challenges, he selected a tough road and has conducted business with discipline, openness, and responsibility. In his opinion, a firm that wants to grow must create trust rather than chasing instant profits. That trust begins with the most fundamental things, such as adhering to rules and regulations, particularly tax obligations—a holy duty to the country as well as a practical contribution to the broader growth of society.

That spirit has served as a guiding principle throughout Hanaka's development. Businesses must operate within the legal framework, utilising the law as a basis to grow sustainably. This steadiness allows companies to withstand market swings while also establishing long-term confidence.

However, every firm that wishes to expand cannot rely entirely on its own resources. The corporate climate has a significant impact. A simple yet powerful analogy: "Businesses are trees, and tax authorities are the ones who harvest the fruit." To receive tasty fruits, the harvester must care for and nurture these trees, rather than simply waiting. When firms are nurtured and given favourable conditions for growth, budget revenue will automatically become sustainable. That is also when the authorities and enterprises form a partnership and grow together.

From that standpoint, a clear message is conveyed: "The State's facilitation of business growth is the mindset of sustainable development." When firms are creative and overcome hurdles, they add more value to society and become a driving force for economic growth.

Hanaka's journey exemplifies that approach. Hanaka began by producing electrical equipment and has since grown into urban real estate, commercial services, industrial real estate, and supporting industries, all while adhering to the principles of regulated expansion, legal compliance, and long-term efficiency. Hanaka takes every stride with trust and discipline.

Hanaka's growth is driven by a dynamic investment climate in which the local government is actively involved. Bac Ninh's administrative philosophy is expressed in the spirit of "no days off, work until the job is done" and continually inventing and seeking solutions to business problems. This companionship has offered further encouragement for businesses to dare to think, act, and invest for the long run.

That is not only Hanaka's story but also a message to the Vietnamese business community: establish your businesses on faith, discipline, and a desire to contribute. Because when they develop healthily, the country becomes stronger; that is the ultimate success.
