After leading Xiaomi Indonesia for 2.5 years, Alvin Tse got a new assignment as General Manager of Xiaomi India. He also sent a farewell letter to Mi Fans in the country.
Alvin Tse officially became Country Director of Xiaomi Indonesia in 2019. He replaced Steven Shi who was then promoted to General Manager Southeast Asia.
The figure of Alvin himself was previously known as the global Poco boss. He had traveled to Indonesia to present the Pocophone F1.
Under his leadership, Xiaomi is quite aggressive in the Indonesian market. He had brought Xiaomi to become the king of mobile phones in the country.
But one strategy that deserves thumbs up is bringing its flagship product. He is also very active on social media communicating with Mi Fans in Indonesia.
Therefore, Alvin's departure to Bollywood will be missed by lovers of Xiaomi products in the country. This can be seen from the reply to the farewell tweet posted by this Stanford University alumni.
"You are a good boss who is also friendly, willing to hear any user complaints and fast handling. Good luck on your next trip!," wrote the account @satriafakhri_id.
"Success in the new place later, uncle @atytse, thank you for bringing xiaomi to the fore and also making xiaomi want to include its flagship series here, thank you very much from MiFans Bandung," said the account @senjaya23.
"Good luck, Alvin. Thank you for your contribution to the smartphone industry in Indonesia," wrote the account @SanHolo1977.
The following is the content of Alvin Sse's farewell letter to Mi Fans Indonesia
Hi Xiaomi Fans and friends all!
I hope you and your family are always in good health.
After 2.5 years of extraordinary journey in Indonesia, I finally have to start a new chapter in my career. This article is a farewell to all of you as my tenure as Country Director of Xiaomi Indonesia ends. The company has assigned me to take on new responsibilities as General Manager, Xiaomi India to continue the company's mission to bring innovation to everyone and continue to create a wider impact.
Indonesia will always be a special place in my heart and of course I will miss you all. I am grateful and honored to have been trusted to lead Xiaomi Indonesia and interact with all of you. This leadership will be continued by Wentao Zhao, who I believe will take Xiaomi Indonesia to another level.
With the commitment and dedication of a great team, Xiaomi Indonesia has grown to become the most user-oriented company in the industry, while bringing innovation to the wider Indonesian community through offering outstanding products at real prices.
Departing from position number 4 in the fourth quarter of 2019, Xiaomi Indonesia successfully achieved a historic achievement by becoming the number 1 smartphone brand in the second quarter of 2021 with a market share of 28%. Not only that, in the span of two years, we have built a retail network consisting of 80 Xiaomi Stores and 400+ Xiaomi Shops, as well as Xiaomi Authorized Partners that enable more Xiaomi Fans to experience the benefits of our products firsthand. We even launched a number of flagship products including your favorite Xiaomi 12 Series featuring Bunga Citra Lestari!
Once again I thank you for the support and trust you have given to me and Xiaomi Indonesia, I hope you continue to follow the journey of @xiaomi.indonesia and support us. I also apologize for any mistakes I may have made.
I wish the best for you and your family. See you later!
Greetings,
Alvin Tse
