In order to create impact and broaden exposure, CNBC Asia is using

illuminated buses in Hong Kong to convey the message that it is a

business channel from which people can watch and learn.



It's the first time that buses have been illuminated in this way for

advertising purposes.



The strategy behind the campaign was two-fold:



- reach the general SAR population to position CNBC as a business tool

for investors rather than just a financial channel; and



- create interest among the trade community.



Eighteen buses have been deployed they will be in operation for CNBC

Asia for six months.



The campaign has aroused much general interest and generated a

significant number of enquiries, said BBH's associate media director

Wang Huay Yeun.



- Submissions for Smart Media should be sent to Ms Suzanne Miao at

MEDIA, 6/F Ming An Plaza, Phase II, 8 Sunning Road, Causeway Bay, Hong

Kong.



Please send visuals of your nomination, as well as a comment on why you

thought it worthy of inclusion in the Far Eastern Economic Review's

Smart Media column.
