CEO’S NOTE Oh, what a night. What a night the Agents Advertising Awards 2017 (AAA 2017) turned out to be. An evening to celebrate excellence, innovation and leadership for property professionals and agencies in Malaysia certainly lived up to its billing and has become blue ribbon event for property professionals and agencies in Malaysia. Throughout the night, we saw the best property professionals and agencies in Malaysia get recognised not just for the work they do, but for their patience, perseverance and pivotal role they play in helping thousands of people find their dream home in Malaysia. To be judged the best amongst tens of thousands of property agents in the country is no mean feat. To have done it, with the quality and caliber on offer is a remarkable achievement. My heartiest congratulations to all the winners of AAA 2017. All the winners that night showed us how bright the future is for Malaysia and more specifically, how bright the property industry is in Malaysia. There were many winners that night and they were all united by a common theme - Innovation. We live in a world where digital transformation is changing the fundamental nature of how property professionals and agencies engage with consumers. Innovation is at the heart of that change.
HARESH KHOOBCHANDANI Chief Executive Officer REA Group for Singapore & Malaysia
Innovation also drives us to re-think what customers value, what consumers want and how to meet those needs. The winners of AAA 2017 is testimony to that. On behalf of REA Group and the team behind AAA 2017, congratulations once again to all the winners and to everyone who joined us on that eventful night. We are proud to partner with you in your journey to change the way Malaysia experiences property. We hope to welcome you back again in 2018. See you soon.
