“Richard is passionate about creativity. He creates the kind of work that makes others think 'Wow! Why didn't I come up with this idea before?' His success as one of Asia's most successful Creative Directors  makes him the perfect leader for this year's Direct Lotus category,” says Jimmy Lam, President of Adfest.
