Congratulations to Gabriela, the country’s national alliance of women’s organizations, and to advertising company DDB DM9 JaymeSyfu for winning the bronze in the prestigious Cannes Lions 2008!

See the winning Gabriela ad entry here, titled “Duct Tape” which deals with “action against spousal abuse”. The bronze won by the ad is said to be the first Cannes Lion won by a Philippine advertising company.

Adobo Magazine reported it ahead of today’s frontpage Inquirer article.

The citation is perhaps an advanced gift to Gabriela, which marks its 25th year in 2009.
