"We're interested in both Saigon and Hanoi beer, but we will wait for bidding details from the Vietnamese government," Mr Thapana said. "We will continue to expand our beverage business in Vietnam because it's one of the growth markets along with Myanmar," Mr Thapana said. Apart from bidding for the two Vietnamese beer operations, the company plans to begin marketing its Chang beer in Vietnam later this month. It is studying the launch of a new whisky brand or the export of existing brands from Thailand to Vietnam. "With the new business structure, we could transform ThaiBev into a truly sustainable organisation," Mr Thapana said.
