We are very happy that he remains a part of our family and our culture and I thank him for what he has done for us over the past five years as he helps shape the next five.”

Aquino said, “It’s an exciting time for the industry and for Ogilvy. It is also an exciting time for me personally. At the board level I look forward to working closely with the new management team and helping them set the next five-year-plan for Ogilvy in The Philippines.”
