Let's Have an Indulging Merdeka Parade Experience
国庆感受“冰”乐趣
全民同庆国庆及马来西亚日

 

Kuala Lumpur – The historical moment on 31 August 1957, when our Founding Father Tunku Abdul Rahman hailed “Merdeka” seven times to declare the country’s independence, set the first step for our countryto march towards a brighter future. Later on 16 September 1963, Malaysia is formed with the joining of Sabah and Sarawak. These two important incidents shaped the foundation of our proud nation today. Over the years, the multiracial community strive hard hand-in-hand to develop the country, bringing us to where we are today.

This year, Malaysia is turning 62!

The glorious moment in 1957 when the crowd echoed in united roars of “Merdeka” after Tunku Abdul Rahman marked the birth of a harmonious, united and patriotic nation. It is a proud day for all people. Even those who were unable to be physically present at the ceremony could feel the passion in their spirits as they witness the moment our national flag rose through the black and white televisions.

Malaysian celebrates its National Day on two dates. Merdeka Day on 31 August commemorates the day when the nation reclaimed its sovereign; while Malaysia Day on 16 September is a date to celebrate the formation of Malaysia together with the two states in East Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak. These celebrations signify the unity of all Malaysians, despite our differences in race, religion and background.

To celebrate this 62 years of momentous milestone with all Malaysians, Baskin-Robbins will be launching a two-month “Happy Malaysia RM1 Upsize” promotion. Baskin-Robbins is the World’s largest chain of icecream specialty shops and one of the most popular icecream brands among consumers, famous for their premium quality delicious icecream.

Baskin-Robbins has always been Malaysian’s favourite. This “Happy Malaysia” promotion, held in conjunction with Malaysia’s 62nd birthday, also aims to remind all Malaysians the contribution of our forefathers as we celebrate the nation’s achievements. The “Happy Malaysia” campaign is a reflection of the true wonders of Malaysia - our people, our land. The beauty of a multicultural and multiracial community is what shapes the nation, and our heritage is the essence of the unique identities that should make every Malaysian proud. Through this campaign, we hope to instil a sense of pride in every Malaysian and to continue promoting a happy and healthy interaction among each other. We are encouraging everyone to protect and preserve Malaysian’s culture and heritage, sharing with the world of what makes them proud to be Malaysian, such as our prehistoric rain forest to world-class crops or the diversified culture found only in Malaysia. This new approach is an uphill task, and Baskin-Robbins wants the change to start at a young age.

Baskin-Robbins Chief Executive Officer Cheah Jia Ming happily announced the “Happy Malaysia RM1 Upsize” promotion is available at all Baskin-Robbins outlets in Malaysia from 1 August to 30 September.

“To commemorate the double celebrations of Merdeka Day and Malaysia Day, we will be launching the “Double Celebration” and “Mega Celebration” promotion. Double your happiness by topping up RM1 to enjoy a free upsize from one scoop to two,” he said.

He explained that customers who purchase a Single Regular (RM11.50) are eligible to enjoy the “Double Celebration” with an additional RM1 while those who purchase a Single King (RM14.50) gets an upgrade to “Mega Celebration” with the additional RM1. The iconic ice cream underwent a makeover whereby it goes with a mini flag on top along with ice cream sleeve covered with elements that carry the resemblance of the national flag. This design is exclusively released to commemorate the upcoming Malaysian Independence Day and Malaysia Day and will only be available these two months.

“The offer is applicable to the various classic, seasonal and special flavours available,” he added.

Bring your family and friends to join us during these special months to enjoy the “Double Celebration” and “Mega celebrations”. Get your “Happy Malaysia” ice creams and snap a photo of what heritage means to you, how this piece of Malaysia reflects your pride towards the nation, be it at a memorable landmark such as the Dataran Merdeka to your favourite nasi lemak stall, your favourite camping site or even your family traditions that are uniquely yours.
