Naga DDB and Tribal Worldwide Malaysia have merged.According to a press statement, the move officially signals the agency’s intent to strengthen its ability to deliver to clients a full range of marketing communications services by combining the best of traditional advertising and brand strategy services with sound and comprehensive digital marketing abilities.The two agencies under its holding company, Foetus International will now be fully integrated in sharing resources, staff as well as a reporting line under Naga DDB CEO, David Mitchell.Mitchell said: "Naga DDB has over the years built a reputation of best in class Malaysian story-telling and we have been developing our capabilities in the digital space over the last few years. Bringing Tribal into our fold, to work directly with our clients, immediately elevates this capability to a whole new level, allowing us to create a clear intersection of humanity, creativity and technology. We're extremely excited and motivated to push the boundaries with Tribal on board.”Leading the digital evolution as general manager of Tribal is Lo Wei Tzen. A digital marketing maven, he has risen through the ranks in Naga DDB with his aptitude and appetite for the digital industry.
