He's also one of the country's most active philanthropists. At the age of 60, he wrote down his unusual experiences and reflections on life during a three-month Buddhist retreat at a temple. Kromadit's best-selling autobiography, Be a Better Man, now has a Chinese version.

The author, also a director of the French Mazars Group, says women are more sensitive and merciful. Their engagement in the world will promote society to a better place.
