Happy Chinese New Year- creative wishes

by Yin on January 23, 2012

Here are the greetings featured in various advertising companies. Some of these messages are meaningful and creative so I decide to compile it here:

My favourite is the one from Nestle- coz it’s really Malaysian:

Nestle: “Oh, when will I stop giving you ang-pows?”

“My unmarried grandchildren get asked this as I hand them their red packets. It’s a polite, old-fashioned way of asking if there’s a suitor in their lives. I eagerly await the day they take my hand and say, ‘yes, this is the last one’. Because then I can ask when there’ll be another delightful great-grandchild in my home.”

The incredible stories that fill our lives are what makes the celebation complete.

Petronas: Our names may be different, but our virtues are the same.

Like water, we adapt fluidity. Flowly smoothly over bumps and conquering even the roughest terrains. That’s a virtue that has been passed down from our father’s father, and his before that. With this energy, we have bought our ways to places our ancestors would never have dreamt of. This year of the water dragon, let’s celebrate its virtue- adaptability.

Happy Chinese New Year from all at PETRONAS.

Puduraya’s new makeover

by Yin on January 20, 2012

Puduraya or now known as Pudu Sentral is one of the major bus hub selling bus tickets to northern part (Penang, Ipoh, Perak, Kedah and Hatyai) as well as some buses to Kuantan. It is back in operation for about a year since its last renovation where the bus operations were temporary shifted to Bukit Jalil. Now, it is back to Puduraya again.

When my friend told me that Puduraya have a new look and it is now very nice, I cannot imagine how the old building, that is stuffy and crowded could ever change. So when I happened to pass that area, I dropped by Puduraya and was really surprised by the transformation:

Inside, the entire area has been renovated:
