He also takes the place of Joanna Hunhsien Tan, who in August left her role as MD of Rapp Singapore to head Asia-Pacific for Tag Worldwide as managing director. 

At NagaDDB, associate planning director Yap Soon Min has stepped up into Tai's role as planning director across NagaDDB, Tribal and Rapp. He will also hold a second role as planning director for Naga's parent company group, Foetus International.
