Saatchi and Saatchi Singapore have hired Theo Tan and Tan Giap How from BBDO Malaysia.
“Theo and How are passionate, hungry guys with a great work ethic. They like big ideas that work across all media, which will strengthen our integrated offering. They are totally on board with the new way we are working at Saatchi and will be a great addition to our creative department,” said Richard Copping, ECD at Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore.
They are set to start mid November.

Boleh!
muka macam hantu
theo & how, awards winning team from BBDO.
i thought most of the saatchi creative department had left. Anyway, getting them cheap fm malaysia seems to be the new thing.
Yeah! BOLEH!
1.02PM – and why not get them from Malaysia? Singapore has been attracting talent from all over the world for decades. Malaysia is doing well right now and BBDO is one of the very best. Good hire Mr Copping.
Of course, when an agency is virtually broke and has no clients to speak of but a couple it makes sense to outsource cheaper. At that cheap price all that seeems to be available these days are creatives who specialise in the big visual, small/no headline ad. For the sake of this agency one hopes this is not the case.
BBDO Malaysia, Boleh!
i hear their offer is not cheap. malaysia boleh!
Wow singapore saatchi office looks nice after the renovation.

So they reporting to who now? Richard Copping or Adrian Miler?
Interesting. Hired to work under Richard Copping, yet now working under Adrian Miller. Wonder if they knew they were signing up for that. Either way good, both of them better than most of the ecd’s in town.
Why can’t you guys just be happy for them? They have won awards for Olympus and MINI Cooper.
