The Apprentice Asia: Jonathan Yabut, you're hired!
AirAsia’s Tan Sri Tony Fernandes pointed his finger and uttered the famous line “You’re hired!” to Jonathan Yabut from the Philippines during the finale of The Apprentice Asia, shown on AXN Astro 702.

The final task was to organised a charity auction for Air Asia Foundation. Yabut’s contender was Andrea Loh, a lawyer from Singapore.
During the finale, Yabut, as the Project Manager, was assisted by former contestants Celina Le Neindre from the Phillipines, Samuel Rufus Nallaraj from India and Malaysia’s Nazril Idrus.
Eventually both team raised RM1.3 million for charity.
During the final boardroom meeting, both had to convince Fernandes for the coveted job of being his apprentice. After analysing both finalists performances from the past weeks, Fernandes eventually hired Yabut.
The Apprentice Asia made its debut on May 22 on AXN as a spin-off from the American version of The Apprentice with Donald Trump. The show tested the creativeness, marketing skills and dedication of the 12 Apprentice.
Apart from Nazril, Malaysia is represented by Nik Aisyah Amirah Mansor and Ng Kian Tat.
