Errata On My Last Posting @ Raya TV Adverts

As I am only a mortal, I have to post this as an errata to my last posting re: the advertisements on TV during the recent Hari Raya Eidl Fitri festival ...

It's either I am getting old or due to "terlebih makan lemang & rendang" or perhaps "overdose" with Dato" Siti Norhaliza appearing on every TV channel during Hari Raya.

I made an inadvertent & unintentional error re: the advertisement of a car broke down & being towed by "dua ekor lembu". It's not a product by our local car manufacturer. It was a product by our local fast food chain instead - the only thing is that of course, the said particular food chain Company could not afford "torturing" hundreds of chicken to tow the car, right!!! It's cruelty to the animals....

The local car manufacturer came up with an advertisement of an old man in a bus with "mangkuk tingkat @ "Sia" having a conversation with a young guy who is sitting behind him. The old man is apparently telling the young guy that he visits his "Alzheimer" wife every day without fail .... The only issue I have with this particular advertisement is that it failed to "gain" my sympathy ...

I do not know about you but I find the old man gesture & the way he talked to the young guy is rather stiff & at the border of being arrogant!!! It would be better if he were to "soften" his appearance by being more relax - not being too stiff. Perhaps with a little smile but there is a bitterness & sadness in that smile ... Well that old man is a good actor anyway & who am I to comment on his acting ...

In conclusion, the mistake is mine & I stand to be corrected... as to rest of the posting contents, I stand by what have been written ....

Selamat Hari Raya Eidl Fitri again .....
