Dear fellow creatives in Jogyakarta, Indonesia and around the region,Now in their 12th year, The Indonesian Pinasthika Awards have been the spring board for local talent all along, picked up by international agencies in the capital, and even making their marks overseas. Work that has been awarded here was successful in global shows. But what truly differentiates Pinasthika is the Indonesian spirit, human, with happiness of the individual at its core.
I like to encourage you to submit your work, share it in a positive environment, encourage local talent (and maybe attract them to your own agency), and - last but not least – walk away with a trophy from the heart of Java!   I look forward to seeing you and your work in Jogyakarta in October 2011.

The ad industry talks a lot about nurturing talent, but on the whole we're not  particularly good at it.  This is why the Pinasthika Awards are important.  For over a decade the show has supported, encouraged and motivated Indonesia's creative community.  Moreover, the show has been helping local agencies, and these are the places where a lot of the most celebrated creatives got their first start in the business.

I look forward to being part of this year's show.

We've seen remarkable progress in the Indonesian advertising last few years.Among them, entries in Pinasthika shows something sparkling. This year I am looking forward to watching the silver lining not only in Indonesia but also in other Asian countries.
