Top 10 Merdeka TVC 2020 as chosen by experts, have been announced

Festive ads this year took a on a huge challenge since March but Malaysians have continued to deliver. This year, we took our annual top TVC voting process to another level and opened it up to exclusively our readers.

Our robust industry-wide survey this time recorded 1339 validated and unique voters, with each person voting multiple times. We weeded out those who tried to vote for their own work, either directly or through third party invested partners (nice try). Our rankings are based purely on what our readers tell us, and not on how many million YouTube views, etc.

Perhaps the voters felt that these TVCs conveyed the best Independence day message or maybe there was no clear message at all but a feeling and it stuck.

Now it’s time for you to see which Merdeka TVCs have made it to the top 10 list.
