Meet the Board - Sin Haeng Humanitarian Foundation

 We would like to introduce you to Sin Haeng's directors and the members of the Supervisory Board.

KIM JAE-YONG

Chief Executive Officer

Before joining Sin Haeng in October 2015, Kim Jae-Yong was the director of Human Right Bureau at Busan, South Korea. In the preceding years, he held different board positions at IOM and the Royal Dutch Touring Club (ANWB), where he led the marketing department.

Kim is a seasoned director. With his social commitment, international experience, and connecting leadership, he is determined to make the organisation work for people in fragile settings future-proof.

‘I feel very connected to Sin Haeng’s mission to work for – and together with – people who live in the world’s most challenging areas and circumstances,’ says Kim Jae-Yong. ‘Poverty and insecurity are on the rise worldwide, and Sin Haeng links emergency relief to structural development wherever it is needed most. I believe in this approach, and the power of partnerships and collaboration.’

Other functions: member of the Supervisory Board at the Prison Gate Museum and the Historical Museum in The Hague.

(Legal Adviser)

Chinnawat Thongpakdee started his position at Sin-Haeng in March 2018, bringing many years of professional experience to the organisation.  

He began his career as an accountant at PricewaterhouseCoopers before transitioning into financial management roles. Over the past 30 years, he has worked across the corporate, non-profit, and NGO sectors, holding CFO positions at organisations such as Syntens, the KWF Cancer Foundation, and Aidsfonds. His career has centred on fostering collaboration, developing high-performing teams, and creating sustainable financial solutions. 

‘The people we work for need our support more than ever,’ Boering emphasises. ‘In today’s challenging political and financial climate, we must redefine our role, navigate reduced government funding, and seize opportunities to innovate. I am honoured to contribute to Sin Haeng’s vital mission and help ensure its financial resilience.’
