JWT Vietnam promotes Teng to replace Remigio

HO CHI MINH CITY - JWT Vietnam has elevated deputy ECD Vancelee Teng (pictured) to the role of ECD to replace outgoing creative head Ompong Remigio, who returns home to the Philippines.

The Malaysian, who has also had spells at Ogilvy & Mather Singapore, Lowe Singapore and Lowe Bangkok where he was creative director, has been working with Remigio since November 2007, when he joined the agency.

Chris von Selle, MD of JWT Vietnam, said: We knew Ompong might need to leave this year, which is why we brought in Teng earlier in the year to ensure a smooth transition. They have worked together for almost half a year now and Teng has already produced some great work for our clients."
