Surprised to see he leave after only seven months on the job… what happened?
Me too. probably couldn’t handle the client meetings.
You’ll do well wherever u go. Keep up da good creative work.
Given his recent record it would seem probable that he has said yes to one of the many approaches he would have received. Probably outside of Malaysia like Ronald and Adrian Miller. Malaysian creatives are hot right now.
Good luck my friend…From Thai friend.
