He is also leading the adoption of AI technology to enhance operational efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. The Tatler's Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow aims to build a community of next-generation leaders. In 2025, about 200 leaders were selected from nine markets across Asia including China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia, with 30 from Thailand.
