Official Perodua press release
For self-employed graphic designer, Ishak bin Ismail, winning RM10,000 cash as the Grand Prize in the recent “Lagi Best” Perodua Auditions video contest on Perodua’s Facebook could not have been more timely.
Ishak, who got married last weekend to Faeza Zakaria, said he planned to use part of the winnings to go on a honeymoon.
The winner, who owns a Perodua Alza, said he came up with the storyboard for his video “Teka Silang Kereta” (Spot the Difference) from a friend who owns many colourful wrist watches.
“We spent an hour to shoot the video,” he said.
Ishak received the prize money from Perodua Managing Director Datuk Aminar Rashid Salleh at the company’s Hari Raya Open House with the local community at Rawang last week.
“This contest was held in conjunction with the launch of Perodua’s Facebook in May this year. Social media such a Facebook and Twitter allows us to connect with our customers, especially the Generation Y more effectively,” Aminar said.
Five other consolation winners also received a tablet computer each from Aminar. They were Cassie Wong Mun Yew, Mohammad Nor Akmal Saman, Tan Yee Yaw, Leroy Low Tiong Lim and Muhammad Za’im Harris Abidin.
More than 220 entries were received during the one-month contest period from 25 May 2011.
Meanwhile, in the Perodua staff category, Rasul bin Abdul Majid, an engineer with the Research & Development Department took home RM3,000 cash for the top prize. Ahmad Najmuddin Mohd Nasri and Amzar bin Zulkefli both of the Logistics Department took home RM2,000 and RM1,000 as second and third prize winners respectively.
The company also recently organised the posting of the Hari Raya Message on its Facebook with the winners given cash prizes to host their Hari Raya Open House.
