Farrokh Madon, ECD of McCann Erickson Singapore, said: "Wee Kim has made a great contribution to McCann Erickson. I wish him all the best for his future as he embarks on a new stage in an impressive career.”
Jean-Paul Burge, CEO of BBDO/Proximity Singapore, said: “I’ve worked with Wee Kim in the past and he is a great talent. He joins a senior creative team that have developed highly effective and creative work for some of the top brands in Asia.”
Danny Searle, chief creative officer and chairman, added: “Wee Kim was the one that got away. While previously at BBDO Singapore, he did amazing, award-winning work on accounts like Wrangler and KFC. He was brilliant at nurturing young talent. And he's a jolly nice guy to work with. Naturally we are all very pleased to have him back. The combination of Wee Kim and Bridget Taylor is a very exciting prospect.”
In October, Ogilvy & Mather Asia-Pacific appointed BBDO’s Juggi Ramakrishnan to the newly created position of deputy regional executive creative director.
