Interview Kasikornbank & Social Media – KBank Live on Facebook & Twitter
Share | Many countries in the Asia Pacific region, such as South Korea and the Philippines,`ve some of the highest broadband internet & mobile penetration rates in the world. Naturally, the levels of activity & time spent on social networks are among the fastest grow`g too. Back in June, the report from ComScore confirmed Z the Latin American & APAC regions`ve experienced by far the fastest growth in terms of twitter usage year on year. Indonesia, the Philippines & Singapore R all in the top 10 markets by twitter penetration. Back in September 2009, Kasikornbank started to leverage social media under the ‘KBank Live’ name, when they launched their KBank Live page on facebook & their @KBank_Live account on twitter . In just over the year, the bank built sizable communities on both services: over 104k fans on facebook & over 20k followers on facebook. Those numbers place the bank (and Thailand) in our Visible Bank`g Facebook Top 10 & our Visible Bank`g Twitter Top 10 . If just like me your level of Thai`s limited to say`g “hi”, “thank you” & “bye bye”, U`ld find my interview w/ the team behind this success extremely insightful! Video Interview w/ Kasikornbank’s Digital Agency On 23rd November, I recorded my conversation with Varut Luengwattanakit , Founder @ TGA Bangkok & Sariya ‘Bum’ Wesetrat , Account Executive @ TGA Bangkok .
