Singapore Technologies Engineering’s (ST Engineering) aerospace arm and Vietnam Airlines Engineering Company (VAECO), a subsidiary of Vietnam Airlines, have formed a joint venture (JV) company in Vietnam to focus on component Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) solutions.

The JV firm, Vietnam Singapore Technologies Engineering Aerospace (JVCo), was set up with a paid-up capital of $5.3m (US$3.9m). ST Engineering holds a 49% stake in the JV company.

The firm will carry out component MRO work in Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi and Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City.

Operations are expected to begin in mid-2019 and will be equipped to support aircraft types including A350, Boeing 787 and ATR72, and carry out MRO work on pneumatics, hydraulics, electrical components, wheels and brakes as well as safety equipment.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
