Since returning to the Philippines, Pe has been reporting on advertising issues for newspapers, such as the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
Hana Dang, CEO of Golden, had not responded to Media by press time as to whether a replacement for Pe had been found.
Over a colourful career, Pe has worked at DDB, JWT, Bates-Alcantara and Leo Burnett (Philippines), McCann Erickson (Indonesia) and DDB International (Malaysia) before joining Golden.
