“Youth doesn’t need to be perfect; it just requires the courage to learn, adapt, and relentlessly move forward.” Few would have guessed that a student who started with practical bartending and service classes at school would go on to become the Bar Captain at Sailing Club Phu Quoc—one of the most vibrant and famous destinations on the Pearl Island. This is the inspiring journey of Lê Thị Ngọc Linh, an alumna of Kien Giang College (KGC, Cohort 15, majoring in Restaurant Management).
