Kuching Happy is back with a new surprise
“Hello manusia penduduk bumi“
The familiar greeting by Malaysia’s most social cat is back. This week we spotted a new campaign by BSN Malaysia which brought back ‘Kuching Happy’ the character introduced by the bank last year to capture its younger audience
The campaign which took social media engagement to the next level won the bank a Gold award at this year’s APPIES Malaysia.
In its latest campaign, instead of granting the wishes of Malaysians, this year Kuching Happy is planning to move out of the country and requested those watching to send out suggestions by using the hashtag #kuchinghappypindah on where he should migrate too.
The digital campaign which is running on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter has been well received by netizens.
The video posted on BSN Malaysia’s Facebook page on Monday has received over 1,000 shares and 600 comments with people throwing out suggestions on which country Kuching Happy should move too.
Comments from the latest Kuching Happy video
So is BSN really letting its famous cat go off to another country? We contacted a representative from BSN to comment on the issue, however, was told that the answer to that would only be will be revealed tomorrow in a second video which will be posted on the bank’s social media accounts.
With less than a week away to Merdeka perhaps this could be the bank’s teaser campaign for our Independence Day celebration? We will wait and see, till then check out Kuching Happy’s latest video here:
