Speaking about the appointment, Guha said, "While the improvement on standards, ethics and practices of advertising has constantly been the objectives of the AFAA, there is a need to review it in the context of regional and national socio-economic development. If we dare say it, advertising – both as a discipline and as a business – is at crossroads and there is a pressing necessity to harmonise and strengthen interaction between Asian and multinational agencies which will be a key focus of AFAA."
