The Asia-Pacific YouTube Ads Leaderboard, provided by Google, shows the top ad in each of 12 APAC markets.

With the advent of 2019 and the Lunar New Year, the top ads of January focused on the importance of family and togetherness during festive celebrations. Be it Panasonic Malaysia’s “Lat Talilat Tali Tam Pom” song-and-dance extravaganza or Samsung Vietnam’s Tết-themed ad on achieving new breakthroughs, the standout ads in this month’s leaderboard all shared a common approach: using creative storytelling, quick editing and catchy tunes to keep audiences entertained and their emotions running high.
