In just a few weeks, the 16th Media Agency of the Year Awards will roll out the red carpet to announce the best of the industry in Asia and the Pacific. The Awards will be in Singapore, on December 9, 2009.
Finalists for this year in the Creative, Media, Digital and Office of the Year Southeast Asia categories include BBH Asia Pac/Singapore, which is the running for both Creative Agency of the Year and Office of the Year – Southeast Asia.
With the diversity of finalists in Southeast Asia, it is noticeable that no Philippines agency made the shortlist of any category, while Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand were represented in Office of the Year. Three Singapore agencies made the shortlist in the said category, namely: BBH Asia Pac Singapore, Euro RSCG Singapore and Mediaedge:cia Singapore. Ogilvy & Mather Thailand and OMD Malaysia complete the shortlist.
This is the first time the Philippines is not shortlisted. BBDO Guerrero and its Chief Creative Officer David Guerrero have consistently been finalists in recent years.
