[rediscassie]

the end, so touching~

[BabooshkaLinda]

That little boy made me cry. I adopted my two sons who are now grown. They will always have a home to return to...

[blekblek90]

The 6 people who dislike this video are heartless.

[pucukbukit]

[meikeng]

The best of all is still the 2005 CNY ads by Petronas... but this is by far the simplest yet enchanting.

[waiwai0405]

@meikeng Erm, I agree. 2005 CNY ads by Petronas is still the best. 2006 & 2006 also not bad.

[r9supergreat]

[Killerkid282]

[sookyan2792]

i rly thought of helping in the orphanage after watching this.. so sad :(

[xbryanleex]

She is a fantastic artist and recognize internationally. But she seems not recognize in her own country, most of her movie is banned.

[jurisprudence1972]

The teacher probably didn't know.

Until the end of the ad, did you?

It's so sad to hear of her passing.

Yasmin Ahmad was a true Malaysian.

[nsxt99]

i agreed that too..

but sadly some politician did think that way..

[Vark230]

don't rely on politician help...if u wait for them, nothing will happen. think a way and do it. may be ur contribute is small but to them is big enough

[BabyOxide]

[jyjyling]

That featured school is SJK(C) Lai Meng. It is my school. The bus stop infront of our school is not filmed because the director said that is too modern for the movie.

[sayesukesaye]

waaaaa...

[maverickzero88]

1:45 >.......T_T... :''((((

[norhafizi]

feels sorry for the orphans....

[waiyip0405]

Kasturi,

u dun understand Chinese.

Chinese r struggling and suffering. No one help us. I mean the government etc. We study hard n smart, for our future and our family.

Dun think that all Chinese are rich. That's the wrong message given by somebody.

[Espionage1211]

very meaningful

[LauraLeia]

I didn't feel anything throughout the commercial, but when I saw the words at the end... I had tears in my eyes.

Great job with the ads, Petronas!

[stormxc8]

kasturi.

Keep ur racist bitchy comment to urself

[MapleButterToast]

I think you should stop bitching . You're not helping at all.

[SimeiPO]

u suck

[chantellesyf]

Why are you being racist? When we say Malaysia Boleh, we say it as Malaysians not singled out races. People like you is what spoils this beautiful country and disgust me. Next time, keep your thoughts to yourself.

[D2der2333]

katsuri..what you saying is not really right..but i got your point..i understand what are you trying to say..but that's not the way to express it..that making you look racist to others.

[namasayarahsia]

teacher look ugly its scared me

[talangch]

very sad story and meaningful... gret yasmin ...

[nemosmknimh]

[GiffordPng]

[ashleygalgal]

so sad..

[Enther87]

1.37他表現出一貫的傻笑后，獨自落寞的表情......

[sbty]

i'm studying abroad...Sad coz I couldn't make it for CNY back home...

but when i see this,i realized how lucky am i.

I'm just away from home,much much better and luckier than those who doesn't have one..

[bananajus]

2009 not bad...sob

[heward88]

Malaysians have good creativity and great sense of sensation. If the country is based on meritocracy, it could really progress and competitive. Luckily it was not, or elso the neighbouring Chinese based country will have to compete with a much tougher country besides China.

[huaizai]

it's best commercial ever =)

[johnnymodels]

good tvc

[whutsoever]

stupid petronas... make me cry each time i watch this ad damnit!!...

[Cimegs5088]

[bahia]

[mukushi]

"There's No Place Like Home"

[sihamze]

it should be the oscar winner for this child or he is real orphan

[atyl11]

[karakuri002]

@atyl11 in the story ler.. not real life..

[atyl11]

[garydkny]

Chen Tian Fu .. o__O SRJKC teacher name .. that batman ..

[xCappachino]

nice meaningful ad that really touch ppl heart...be appreciate n gratitude some1 who loves u ....

[PROheheboom]

touching!!!

[Blossommonte]

this brought tears to my eyes.... how fortunate for those who have family but never treasure it.... treasure them before they leave us!

[g4hong3]

the boy is so cute!!!haha

[atyl11]

u can come n see him at pj

[kugenkenya]

be grateful and thank god cause we f parents..don regret when HE take our parents from us!!i love my parents and family..they are my treasure!!

[rifo5]

very nice!!!!

[ijak187]

be grateful...

[YoUTaQ]

pity him..taktau pun apa ertinya makan besar.so, kita yg masih ada keluarga, ibu bapa ni, appreciate la apa yg kita ada.huhu..a reminder 4 me n u..

[rukawa8711]

I think the part till the bus stop was good. But however, the part between the lady and the boy met up, its too draggy. Less impact on that. When they meet, should show more emotions. Close-up shots. I believe it would give it more emotional effect. Its a nice video. Meaningful as well. :D Great work

[jianpang88]

The lady isnt his mum so it shouldnt have stress so much on emotions there. The aim of this ad is to make us appreciate our parents and family, it's not for us to put ourselves in the shoes of the boy and feel what he feels. This ad is just right imo

[rukawa8711]

Yes. I agree. But, the aim of this ad is to make us appreciate our parents and family. However, the boy only shows that he know he is an orphan. What if i say we add that the boy visits the lady after he grows up to show appreciation? If u look at it this way, ppl only follow things that were done. This is my opinion. :D And thanks for replying my 3 months old post. :P

[3toparc8]

yeah add up that scene n it will b no longer an ad but a melodrama hahaha

the ad is fine, no need any xtra scenes. the point is 2 appreciate wht u hve, go balik kampong 4 new year, thts it

[Bradmyazntwin]

So sad, but very powerful indeed. Thanks for posting the video, it means so much...Chii~!

[initialgay]

lai Meng rocks

[bajgk]

nice ... gambateh pratonas !!

[vspirit]

Cute kid. *wants to huggle him*

[atyl11]

it's possible.....in pj

[evil89]

very good ad by petronas.

chaiyokk!!

[shuddupfirst]

Obviously you are uneducated.

[superdupree]

like yr name, u should "SHUT UP FIRST"!

[shuddupfirst]

This is a comment page, for public opinions regarding this video and it's not my name, get your brain all wired up.

[superdupree]

as u said, public opinions right? so why bother me? sigh, some people!

[shuddupfirst]

I am merely counter responding your comment and I am clarifying that my comment was for this video whereas you are responding personally, you should learn to revise what had been written above before commenting.

[superdupree]

well, im merely counter responding your comment on this video too. dont u get it?

[shuddupfirst]

and what is your reponse regarding that? ppfft. Get your shit together before commenting....

[shuddupfirst]

Do you even understand simple English?

[superdupree]

that u've not gathered yr "shit" enough before commenting on this petronas ad.

[shuddupfirst]

...??

okay... You best learn to debate and come up with own words, am not going to further communicate with a spasm. :(

[superdupree]

spasm-a sudden, convulsive, involuntary muscular contraction: a tonic spasm is persistent and sustained, and a clonic spasm is one of a series of relatively brief contractions alternating with relaxations

[nanalyhui]

we are not going to cry...we are going to laugh at your childishness actions.

[nanalyhui]

white men will never stop being the stubborn racist and support the white men superior old fahioned idea..

They havent realize the value of the US dollar is decreasing and keep bullshitting around like a son of a bitch.

[kwantokwanto]

xhunni123x nice comment man!!!!!!!!!!!go CHINESE!!

[Qibai]

The women is an Indian and i tought why it gave birth to a chinese boy, but who knows is some of the social worker from the Rumah Anak Yatim hehe

[Qibai]

How could you say that? We Chinese don't even criticize about you whites... Stop being a racist ok?

[jimmy7lin]

emank banyak cina malaysia yg ga pulang pas imlek-an ya?

[epchandavid]

[ngplas]

[hartnsoul77]

The most touching advert i've ever seen, so meaningful for those of us who are far away from our families.. great job

[ianlyy]

So who did this, Yasmin ahmad?

[chingmiau]

yes... yasmine ahmad....

hehe i am the teacher in ad haha...

i love this ad...

really nice...

yasmine ahmed also done a best job....

[ianlyy]

LOL, i was wondering why the teacher was insensitive on Thiam Hook, she seems didn't know much about the boy's background, poor him..

And yup, i do appreciate for the meaning of this ad trying to bring, Yasmin's works has been always sentimental..

Btw, you reminds me of on my primary school teacher, lol, just curious, are you really a teacher?

[chingmiau]

hehehe i been teacher b4...

now i am tourist guide and actress also...

last time i am acting teacher.

[swatjohn]

haha...

[ianlyy]

Thats interesting to know..

Thnx for sharing it us.. :)

[jbblkh]

You know what chingmiau, that was my primary school and the same name was being used in this ad for mischevious boy in school back in the hay-days. I don't know whether this ad linked at all?

[RyogaDaze]

That boy's amazing!!

[42439]

[arunantslam]

[JORDANLOH727]

petronas' ad always very meaningful..

thx for sharing.

[petromalaysia]

Don't waste your tears crying over this video.Get real and cry over all those who are being marginalised and discriminated against by Umno and their policies.I cried over the Indians whose temples were destroyed,non bumi students who got excellent grades but did not qualify for places in univerities or scholarships,non bumis who don't qualify for cheap housing because of their race.GET RID OF BN.

[liuyung]

very bad man!!!

[squido75]

i cried when i saw this ad... yet again, Petronas has brought us back to reality with yet another superb CNY ad... let us remember the less fortunate during this CNY...

[gegeusikor]

nearly got me cryin watchn dis ad..very gud 1..thnx petronas!.the feelin was beyond words.

[zenpicturehouse]

if only more of our Malaysian directors were like these. We've got all the wrong ideas about movies. We think must be "ada stail, ada gaya", but we forget too often to add heart to our movies.

salute.

Happy Chinese New Year :)

[phantomclf]

One of my fav Petronas vid. Great job Yasmin Ahmad!

[amcheong]

Who is the director for this advertisment?

[phantomclf]

Yasmin Ahmad, the director of Sepet.

[BeauLee]

this add's so emo. it's CNY damnit!

[ikbenjou1]

For all orphans in the world... Happy Spring Festival Twun Tjeh Kwai Le!!!

[hoonmeng]

this is a really touching video for me. i cried when i was watching on it first time on the tv. thanks for uploaded it here.

[telliecoin]

poor kid

[amy833833]

what the hell is going on? can somebody tell me?

[cinemagokkusagi]

Chinese New Year is all about family, reunion, celebration - but celebrating together, with family. People will travel (great distances) to be with their family at this time. As this commercial is set in Malaysia, there is a mix of cultures (hence the Indian-style dress of the orphanage worker). It is sad because the child has no 'family' to be with during this holiday. People will literally shut down their businesses to go and be with family. So, the ad implies be thankful for what you have.

[hwzoner]

stop the wayang, the corrupted government needs to remove the bumis privileges.

we had enough of feeding these bunch of parasites.

so fxxk them and their "mine is above all" religion.

[MoonChye]

petronas always the best and full meanings

thank for your posting

[kerbaurider]

This is a very good advertisement! Really promotes family values and the importance of reunion dinner.

p/s: i love Petronas. Petronas Maju Jaya.
