The Controversial Hari Raya Commercial
I didn't know about this until a friend shared this in Facebook; a Hari Raya commercial aired in Malaysia by TV3. What is so controversial about it? Watch for yourself. Naturally, we would have two groups of opinions. Group 1 Totally opposing to the the commercial since the Pak Cik (Uncle) on the flying rickshaw resembles a lot like Father Christmas and the lotus flowers that symbolizes Buddhism. I think the only factor that can be related to Hari Raya is them wearing Malay traditional clothes and cooking Malay food. Group 2People who don't see what is the big deal about the commercial and thinks people in Group 1 should have an open mind and not to over think about such factors. It is a creative presentation and it is a fantasy concept that ought not to take too seriously. What do I think? Generally, I think it has nice graphics but since it is a religious celebration, I think it should reflect more on its values and ideas instead of extracting that is very commercially relatable to other religions.
