I like how you pointed out the details and share your opinion. Thanks for bringing up such topics Pat. Its a good wake up call for some I must say.

Clearly, the Asian values OCBC are known for were disregarded. Should have kept with Batey's. Let me guess……. the creative director who called the shots for this is not Asian.

You know, the scholarship with a bond you have to _pay back_ for life. Clearly it’s a dramatization of the harsh realities of the Father Mother Scholarship.

That Petronas ad was what I thought in contrast while viewing the OCBC ad. They really got it wrong this time. I miss Yasmin Ahmad :( My point exactly!

Perhaps he was just away for a business trip or something, and then he wanted to make sure that he still gives her the allowance? Though I agree "paying back" doesn't mean only in monetary form. wow that second ad made me tear. *sniff* thanks for sharing.
