The move sees Chong reunited with We Are Social’s regional boss Simon Kemp, with whom she worked at BBH.

Bates Singapore is now led by Anna Sayre, who has a dual role of GM of the agency and also integrated agency Soho Square.
Chong commented: “Social in Asia is growing at at a faster rate than Europe or the US which makes it an incredibly exciting place to be. We Are Social’s unique mission, to put social thinking at the centre of marketing, is set to transform communications for brands in the region and it’s a hugely exciting time to join.”
