Seated: Natasha Aziz and Syahriza Badron
Tasha, Syah and Jamie are the backbone of our agency. When Shi-Ping and I bought over the FCB Group last year, they believed in our vision and poured their heart and soul into the business. It’s time we repaid that faith by ensuring their place as the future leaders of our agency working alongside fast rising talents such as Mandy and Karan.” said Shaun Tay, co-owner & chief executive officer of the FCB Group Malaysia.
