Text Object using set expression

Hi, 

I'm new to qlik and trying build a dashboard where i need to show client category in a text object for different region

Example

on Selection of Client below values should appear in a text object. i have created a 4 text objects in a dashboard. for example Text Object Header is " MENA" and Text = Gold

MENA : Gold

APAC: Silver

CEEMEA: Gold

EMEA: Platinnium

CEEMEA: Bronze

I tired achieving this through using MaxString, MinString function in a set Expression but it fails. sometime it give accurate sometime not.

=MaxString({$<Region={'MENA'}>} CATEGORY)

=MaxString({$<Region={'APAC'}>} CATEGORY)

=MaxString({$<Region={'CEEMEA'}>} CATEGORY)

=MaxString({$<Region={'EMEA'}>} CATEGORY)

Can you please throw some light where am i going wrong or some suggestion.

It should be simpler than that. 

For the text object, use the expression:

=only(Category)

This will select the possible Category when client is selected.
