TOP Malaysian brands grabbed the spotlight at the Putra Aria Brand Awards (Paba) on Jan 22, with 182 awards in 24 categories given out at Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur. The event was organised by Association of Accredited Advertising Agents Malaysia (4As) in collaboration with Star Media Group (SMG), which was present as the official media partner. Meanwhile, 4As Malaysia senior adviser and Putra Brand Awards organising chairman Datuk Johnny Mun said the Paba was designed to empower consumers to identify and choose the brands closest to them. “This is why the introduction of Paba has always been to recognise, celebrate and award brands and brand builders for their efforts in their discipline,” he said in his speech. We believe that a brand which wins at home is a brand that is ready to win abroad.
