Catch World-class golf with Premium Carlsberg beer at the Maybank Malaysian Open 2014

Carlsberg has always been a forerunner in golf. As the Maybank Malaysian Open 2014 kicks off, Carlsberg returns once again as one of the tournament’s longest-standing main partners as it continues its reign as Official Beer.

Henrik Juel Andersen, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia, said, “The Maybank Malaysian Open, a world-class golf tournament and Carlsberg, an international premium beer, are a perfect match, sharing qualities such as passion and integrity, while the tournament celebrates champions. It’s great to be back on the green at the Maybank Malaysian Open to catch the action and witness Malaysia’s love for golf while offering the Carlsberg experience to our consumers on this award-winning course.”

Carlsberg consumers can win season tickets to watch the Maybank Malaysian Open by taking part in the consumer promotion at selected golf clubs in Klang Valley and Negeri Sembilan. Throughout the 4-day tournament Carlsberg is offering spectators a beer buffet promotion at a flat price of RM80, from 11am to 3pm. In addition, complimentary samplings of the country’s fastest growing cider, Somersby Apple Cider, will held at the Somersby chill-out area located at the exit of public catering from 12pm to 2pm and from 4pm to 6pm daily.

Mr. Henrik Juel Andersen, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia is an avid golfer

“The international scale of the Maybank Malaysian Open puts Malaysia firmly on the map as one of the top destinations for golfers around the world. Carlsberg’s partnership with the Maybank Malaysian Open and dedication to the development of amateur golf through the Carlsberg Golf Classic has rightly earned us the reputation of being golfers’ beer of choice. Now that calls for a Carlsberg!” Andersen added.

At the Carlsberg Hospitality Marquee invited guests and customers of Carlsberg will have the best view of the 18th hole, access to a live feed of the action as well as sample a range of premium beer, stout, and cider by the brewer as they meet some of the international golfing greats who are expected to drop by. Co-sanctioned by the Asian Tour and the European Tour, the Maybank Malaysian Open’s stellar line-up of international pro golfers is expected to bring participants and fans another world-class golfing experience at the KLGCC.

Sales Engineer Wins RM160K Volkswagen Golf TSI from P1

Imagine winning yourself a brand new Golf TSI. Imagine no more, as last week, 43-year-old Sales Engineer, Ng Joo Inn subscribed to a P1 ForHome™ broadband plan, and won the much coveted bonus of a brand new Volkswagen Golf TSI worth RM160,000.  Ng subscribed to P1 when the service provider was running its “iPunya Buy & Win Contest” with the Golf TSI as the grand prize.

At the prize-giving ceremony held at the P1 headquarters today, Ng who was obviously ecstatic with his big win which came tied with a bow, said, “I’ve never won anything this grand before. I’m excited and happy beyond words.”   

The contest was opened to subscribers of P1 broadband plans who also signed up for a P1 self-care account and submitted a slogan and answered a couple of questions correctly. Ng’s slogan reads, “I like P1 because it is everyday LOW cost with HIGH quality; they know they are not the best but always try harder!”

Additionally, 35 other subscribers also won attractive prizes comprising Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung WiFi camera and X-mini speaker.

Noor Azlin Shah, one of the few Samsung Galaxy Note winners and subscriber of P1’s ToGo™ plan said, “I truly feel valued as a P1 customer and not just because of this reward but the way the company tries to ensure I have the best service experience.”

The ‘P1 iPunya Buy & Win Contest’ had 9,430 entries. The contest was a give-away frenzy to reward customers and to encourage more registration for P1’s do-it-yourself customer care portal to further enhance customer experience. 

P1 Brand & Marketing Director, Shirley Ah Yong who gave away the prizes at the ceremony shared the winners’ joy. He said, “It feels just as good to give as to receive, maybe even better. That’s why P1 is built for more™ to always give more -- whether it’s through our product and plan designs, customer service or consumer programs such as this iPunya contest.” 

In conjunction with the “Ipunya Buy and Win Contest,” P1 held an interesting promoter contest called the “U Win, I Win” contest. The mechanics of the ‘U Win, I Win Contest” were simple and as its name suggests, the promoters who signed up the winners of the iPunya contest also win. Tan San Mi who had been a promoter for P1 since 2008 was the lucky promoter who sold grand prize winner, Ng, his P1 plan and hence won a RM25, 000 cash prize. Other promoters won the exact same prize as their respective iPunya contest winner i.e., the Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung WiFi camera or X-mini speaker.

Personally I'm not a fan of golfing, in fact I can't golf. Would love to try it out one day given the chance though. Anyway this post is to share on a piece of news which I've gotten wind of.
