INTERNATIONAL MEDIA COMMENT ON 8TV RAMADHAN RACIST AD

8TV Ramadhan Racist Ad taken down within 48hours with 34,000 Facebook Shares + international Media Coverage from Forbes, Washington Post & BBC

It seems like the whole drama about 8TV Ramadhan PSA Ads created more buzz than expected. The YouTube video which was re-uploaded with the title ’8TV Ramadan PSA TV ads insulting chinese Malaysia 2011′ was taken down from YouTube within 48 hours after a number of 34,000 Facebook Shares.

The whole incident even reached major news sites such as BBC & WashingtonPost. What a way to promote Malaysia AGAIN. Malaysia has pretty much created a lot of buzz this very year and i’m sure this won’t be the last of 2011. Looking forward for more to come from any other parties. Meanwhile, you can head to 8TV Facebook Page to check out all the negative remarks left there.

This would be a very good case study for lots of companies out there especially in Malaysia where social media is “OVER-ACTIVE”.
