Deepavali Ad by Finas

Whilst I am appalled watching this ad.. I am also wondering what were they thinking to approve such an ad and not expect a stir of controversy..

For those who have not viewed it.. here is the link.. Finas Deepavali Ad

For those who have.. let me continue whinging..

The advertisement in question does not depict the actual case today.. I am shocked by the picture painted here.. The world has become smaller with the new digital era.. but in the minds of some it has grown even smaller..

In the first place, if the very pregnant woman was uncomfortable in eating at her in-laws she could have bloody stayed home and continued her murukku making.. rather than disrespect them by not eating in their home.. Funny that many do not understand that the package of marrying any man of any descent will mean that you have to accept their wares and wears.. but superiority in this case applies and that is obvious..

Why can we not look beyond our differences and celebrate our similarities?? Must we continue to be in the fashion of ignorance?? 

I shudder to think what will happen in future.. 

1Malaysia in this fashion.. will become 1MalayMalaysia.. 

wise or otherwise,
