“….. It is undoubted that Vu has been one of my greatest mentors in the legal professional field. He is exactly the person who taught me a lot at my very first beginning days of this tough field. Who I am and what I have today have been developed mainly based on the experience I have learnt from him. He is, of course, not only a good boss but an experienced attorney-at-law also.
