RICE announces expansion of operations to Thailand and Philippines

by MARKETECH APAC

-

April 17, 2024

Singapore – RICE, a strategic communications firm, has just opened operations in Thailand and the Philippines, capping 15 years of expansion around Asia. This initiative broadens the firm’s reach beyond its existing operations in Singapore, Myanmar, and Hong Kong. 

The expansion highlights social impact as a primary goal, utilising RICE’s ESG communications experience and partnerships with international development organisations, non-profit organisations, and global corporations. Leading the regional expansion initiatives and overseeing operations in Thailand, Myanmar, and the Philippines is Donna Garcia as its firm’s partner and regional director.

Now that the offices in Thailand and the Philippines are up and running, RICE is committed to offering thorough insights, tailored strategies, and involvement that is grounded in meaningful results.

Speaking about the expansion, Garcia said, “Our expansion into Thailand and the Philippines aligns with our larger vision of stewardship, which focuses on how RICE and our people can positively impact our team, clients, and the wider community. We’re not only broadening our reach geographically; we’re building creative impact hubs similar to what we’ve established in Myanmar, and making services more accessible to non-profits, NGOs, and social enterprises in the region.” 

She added, “As we grow, we deepen our commitment to this philosophy by employing marginalised people who might otherwise find it challenging to land meaningful roles in our industry. In Thailand, RICE has partnered with Education for the Deaf (EDeaf) to train and hire graphic designers from their network.” 

Meanwhile, James Brasher, managing partner at RICE, said, “The Philippines and Thailand offer RICE plenty of opportunity for growth and social good. Guided by our vision, we’re always looking at how our work can make a positive contribution to our clients, colleagues, and the communities we serve.”
