Malaysia’s favourite brands
The Putra Brand Awards was launched in 2010 by the Association of Accredited Advertising Agents Malaysia (4As) in collaboration with Malaysia’s Most Valuable Brands (MMVB). The award is an initiative to recognise local and international brands, with the winners determined by consumer votes.
The awards recognise brands that are trusted by Malaysians, as determined by a consumer survey conducted by the international research firm IPSOS. Participants in the survey were asked to identify the country’s favourite brands across 24 different product and service categories.
During the eight-week voting period from end-September to mid-November, the Putra Brand Awards received over 25,000 responses from Malaysians.
Other top five brands recognised in the ‘Cameras, IT, and Office & Business Equipment’ category include Samsung, which received the Platinum award, and Panasonic which received the Gold Award. Huawei was also awarded Silver along with Canon. The Bronze award was shared by Dell and Faber-Castell.
Samsung received two more awards at the event, one Platinum Award in the ‘Communications Devices’ category and one Gold Award in the ‘Personal, Household & Outdoor Appliances’ category.
Putra Brand of the Year
Sunway Group dominated the ceremony, taking home five awards, including the evening’s most prestigious honour, the Putra Brand of the Year.
Tan Sri Dr Jeffrey Cheah, its founder and chairman, also received the Putra Brand Personality Award 2022, which recognised his achievements in building one of Malaysia’s most iconic brands as well as his lifelong commitment and contributions to nation-building through education, healthcare, and sustainable development.
Sunway Education Group also received the coveted Platinum award in the Education & Learning category, while Sunway Lagoon and Sunway Property both received the Bronze award in the Entertainment and Property categories, respectively.
Sunway’s five awards were the group’s largest haul at the annual brand awards since its inception in 2010, bringing the total number of awards won by the company to 32.
