Public Affairs & GR
In Southeast Asia, successful business operations require not only a market license, but also a "social license to operate" from the government, regulators, and local communities. A passive, reactive government relations strategy is one of the greatest risks a company faces in the region.
We assist clients in transforming from a passive stance to becoming proactive, constructive participants in the agenda. Leveraging our deep understanding of local "unwritten rules" and our "first-hand intelligence" network, we help clients precisely identify and map all relevant key stakeholders.
Our goal is to help clients build and maintain a positive public image, provide support through complex approval processes and volatile public opinion, and ensure their local operations have a long-term, stable, and predictable external environment.
