Asia Pacific region number two at The Cup 2009
Asia Pacific agencies walked away with an impressive 10 trophies at the 3rd Intercontinental Advertising CUP, making it the 2nd top-performing region in the world behind Ibero-America.
The Asia Pacific region also won the ultimate prize, The 2009 Grand CUP – which was awarded to GT Inc Tokyo for ‘Love Distance’ and Sagami Rubber Industries.
Four Asia Pacific agencies made the Top 10 ranking of high-achievers: #2: GT Inc (Japan), with 21 awards points; #3: BBDO/Proximity (Malaysia), with 12 points; #4: Dentsu Razorfish (Japan), with 12 points; and #8: McCann Worldgroup (Hong Kong), with 8 points. Akira Kagami (Dentsu Tokyo) and Jimmy Lam represented Asia on the jury.

I know that this award show has been going on for a few years, but at a recession time like this it feels like a waste of money. All winners have been awarded in the past, and more important, award shows. Why do you need to extend your 15 minutes of fame?
I absolutely agree 1.39. This is a totally unnecessary award show that no one cares about. no one talks about it. The work is really old. It adds nothing to adfest. It adds nothing to the winners of adfest. It’s boring.
When is ADFEST on anyway? Surely they have set a date or is it just not going to happen this year?
