31st of August 2010 marks the 53 years since independence back in 1957. Its a celebration to remember the day we became a independent country from the British rule and become a nation of our own. Its a long time since we became a entity of our own, many leaders came and went. Many politicians came and went,some inspired ..some not so but that has contributed to where we are today.
For me this Merdeka is much much more than what we are told its supposed to be. Yes, it was not easy getting where we are but if we keep using that as a excuse, its going to be a challenge moving forward. Remember the work of those who got us here, but also remember they did what they had to do.. it was their job!
Leo Burnett have come up with another superb Merdeka for Petronas this year! Every year without fail Petronas never fails to come up with brilliant ad’s for Malaysia’s independence, normally master minded by Yasmin Ahmad.
After her passing, Malaysians were left waiting to see if this year the advertisement would be as good and they have not failed us!
This year, its called.. Kereta Buruk!
Im sure Yasmin would have been so proud of this one! RIP Yasmin, We all miss you!
