I was standing in the middle of the cave, staring about in amazement” said Mr. Tuan Anh, a member of the delegation on the 2019 expedition, “I’ve been to some of Vietnam’s most beautiful caverns, but the scene here makes me feel better. I was blown away. Without saying anything, the entire group remained silently viewing. The reward for coming here on our own feet and with determination is amazing.

AIA Vietnam is the first Vietnamese life insurance business to offer the Vietnamese people this fantastic adventure. AIA Vietnam chose Son Doong cave as the location not only to convey its gratitude for Vietnam’s beauty but also to offer participants an opportunity to push up themselves.

Mr. Chuong, one of the ambassadors chosen to participate in the 2019 expedition to conquer Son Doong, expressed his views about the journey “Conquering Son Doong Cave is one of my life objectives, as well as one of the most difficult. This experience has changed the way I think about the things I thought I couldn’t conquer or face, but if I’m truly dedicated and persistent, I can. There will be no barriers that can stop me.

In 2019, Mr. Wayne Besant, CEO of AIA Vietnam, joined the team that conquered to Son Doong.
