He meets regularly with tax authorities and regulators to address tax issues on behalf of his clients and participates actively in public forums advocating for positive tax reforms and legislative changes.

He is also an elected board member of the Vietnam Tax Consultants' Association (VTCA) through which he received awards from Vietnam's Minister of Finance (2011) and Prime Minister (2013) for his excellent contributions to the promotion of tax laws and policies and the development of the tax profession in Vietnam.
