Meaningful Spirit of WIPRO Run For Family At Putrajaya Wetland!

Saturday, October 6, 2018

Mouse mommy and family joining the 13^th year anniversary for the “Spirit of WIPRO Run” has been a successful platform in bringing together employees, families, and customers with a single goal in mind that is to contribute back to the society through 3 charity categories which are Community, Education and Ecology.

Funds collected from the annual run are topped up dollar to dollar by Wipro and it goes out to helping the local community where Wipro operates in around the world.

This year the theme for “Spirit of WIPRO Run” is #WeBeforeMe . Love the Wipro spirit of thinking giving back to the community and doing many Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts. Yes! Support that Think of WE Before Me.

Mouse mommy and MR are running and exploring the Putrajaya Wetland at the same time during 3km run.

Spotted many wetland plants and water plants around the wetland environment. Bird chirping sound listened.

A good place to explore wetland life with family and kids at Putrajaya Wetland.

“The Spirit of Wipro Run supports a greater cause – that of giving back to the communities we work and live in. In doing so, we connect the Spirit of Wipro with our larger corporate mission of creating a just, equitable, humane and sustainable world.

Themed ‘We Before Me’, this year’s run is to encourage unity and the spirit of working together,” said Mr Kumar Chander, Regional Director, South East Asia & Middle East in his speech.

Spirit of Wipro Run, which started in July 2006 and has since been a global annual effort. Every year, the Wipro employees and extended community around the world participate in the Spirit of Wipro Run as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.

The Malaysian chapter of the ‘Spirit of Wipro Run’ run which is held concurrently around the world where Wipro has its footprint took place at federal administrative centre, Putrajaya and on the grounds of the largest constructed freshwater wetlands in the tropics.

Padang Semarak with its beautiful and inviting serene greenery was the perfect setting for day of outdoor fun for the event.

The carnival like atmosphere with games booth, candy floss, popcorn, ice cream, food trucks and inflatable bouncing castles created further excitement not just for the children but for adults alike. MR loves the candy floss and ice cream so much!

Also present at the event to cheer the runners on was the adorable pink elephant mascot, Carrie Junior and his buddy Tommy the tortoise.

Starting with a 15-minutes Zumba warm up, the participants were then flagged off for the run that they have been waiting eagerly for. Zumba dance to kick start our energy to the run!

Fun was the order of the day as WIPRO took the event to a greater level this year by infusing Colour and Obstacles into the average run.

Albeit the challenge to overcome the obstacles and to endure being sprayed with colour, the participants took it all in good stride which is a clear demonstration of the Spirit of Wipro.

Besides the run, participants also got to partake in other competitions namely the ‘Walk-a-hunt’, Flower Arrangement and Cupcake decoration.

Mouse mommy and MR also taking part in Flower Arrangement competitions and glad that we won the 1st Prize! Thank you my great helper MR that helping mouse mommy to cut, pluck and arranging the flowers nicely. Such a great mom and son teamwork!

The three categories available for the Spirit of Wipro Run were the 8km Men Open Category, 8km Women Open Category and a 3km Family Fun Run.The top 3 runners for each of the category received prizes for their efforts. No one went home empty handed as all participants received their goodies bag upon completion of the run.

Such a meaningful and healthy “Spirit of WIPRO Run” for the entire family members! Mouse mommy has listed this Wipro family run as one of our family run events annually. Looking forward to participate next year!

Who Won Shopping Spree In ENERGIZER® SHOP IN THE DARK 2018 ?

Wednesday, August 15, 2018

Energizer® gave the 10 finalists of the Energizer®Shop In The Dark 2018 competition the greatest deal of alltime when they won themselves a 15-minute shopping spree bonus worth up to RM12,000 per finalist at the grand finale yesterday at Giant Hypermarket Kota Damansara. The rush was pure euphoria for all 10 finalists as they fully utilised the precious shop-all-you-can chance without worrying about the dent in their pocketbook afterwards.

Following the high participation level and public enthusiasm for the Energizer® Shop In The Dark campaign in the past two years, Energizer® brought back the competition for a third year, with entry submissions for Energizer® Shop In The Dark 2018 accepted throughout March to May. This year, Energizer® offered even bigger prizes and more ways to sign up, to reach out to a wider audience across the nation. The public could participate by taking part in the Virtual Reality (VR) challenge at roadshows in more than 60 locations in seven cities around Malaysia – including Sabah and Sarawak, as well as via mail-in entries and by playing an online game.

“The Energizer® Shop In The Dark 2018 campaign received overwhelming response. At Energizer®, we strive to give our customers unforgettable experiences and as Giant graciously opened its doors to us, it was possible for our finalists to have this exciting shopping spree at Giant Hypermarket Kota Damansara. Congratulationsto the 10 teams of finalists, who were well-equipped with headlamps fitted with Energizer® batteries that are 8x longer-lasting throughout their fun and exciting shopping spree in the dark here at Giant. This year, we decided to turn up the excitement by adding an additional element at the finale, whereby the finalists were not given a shopping trolley to use. This meant they had to be creative and agile to load up on as many items as possible. It was a tough challenge and they certainlygave it all they had, embracing the finale with as much excitement as we had in organising the event,” said Mr Lee Kim Chye, Energizer®’s Business Director for Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.

Ten (10) finalists were selected for the grand finale of the Energizer® Shop In The Dark 2018 campaign, consisting of six (6) from the Virtual Reality challenge participants, three (3) from the contest form submissions and one (1) from the participants of the online game. They were able to shop till they dropped in a 15-minute shopping spree bonus worth up to RM12,000 per finalist. This year, the finalist teams were not allowed to use shopping trolleys and could only move in the designated one-way direction as they took to the darkened aisles of Giant Hypermarket Kota Damansara with their Energizer® headlamps.

Energizer® batteries, groceries and other products flew off the shelves as the finalists swept away everything they wanted, subject to pre-imposed restrictions and rules. At the end of their shopping spree, all the items were paid in full up to RM12,000 per finalist by Energizer® at the check-out counter.

With the added rules, the finalists identified home appliances as their top priority items in order to make the most of their precious shop-all-you-can chance.They strategically added foldable platform trolleys among their purchases in order to pile electrical appliances on it, in addition to filling their arms with more products, to achieve a bigger hoard. The strategy was used by most of the finalists to carry a variety of electrical appliances such as televisions, washing machines, pressure cookers, air conditioners and many more.

The ten finalists of the Energizer® Shop In The Dark 2018 campaign who won a shopping spree are Mohd Fakri Ghazali (Finalist from Shop In The Dark 2016 & 2017), Yap Hua Qing, Chee Jye Bao, Chan Weng Sum, Anorah Frezylah, Ahmad Daud, Tang Kam Hong, Tan Wei Jin, Halimahton Saadiah Aris and Huzaimi Amir Zainudin.

It was a brand-new experience for first time finalist Chee Jye Bao, 29, who never expected that participating in the Virtual Reality (VR) challenge would earn him a shopping spree. “I’m moving into a new house, and all I had in mind were electrical appliances. I teamed up with my brother but we did not have a list prepared, we basically just grabbed whatever we wanted. I enjoyed myself very much at the Energizer ‘Shop In The Dark’ 2018 grand finale as it was an exciting new experience for both me and my brother,”said Chee from Subang, who walked away with a total of RM8,075.70 worth of products, making him and his brother, Chee Jye Jiun, 36,the highest spenders among all 10 finalist teams.

In contrast, third time finalist Mohd Fakri Ghazali, 37,and his brother, Mohd Faizal, 34,had it all planned. “I am a big fan of the Energizer® Shop In The Dark contest. Last year, I managed to shop for a total of RM3,500 worth of products. This year managed to walk away with a total of RM 6,426.65 worth of products, thanks to my experience from last year’s finale and some extra strategy to overcome the challenge of the new rules.

The challenges were really exciting for us as we really needed to last 8 times longer just like the Energizer® battery! We came a day earlier toanalyse the layout of this hypermarket, to ensure we know it well. It was not easy identifying the correct aisles and items at times, but with the help of the long-lasting Energizer® battery, I definitely had long-lasting help in my journey to the check-out counter,” Fakri said gleefully.

Superb Splashing Fun Time At Sunway Lagoon Aqua Run 2!

Thursday, April 26, 2018

Mouse mommy and buddies were so exciting to join this Sunway Lagoon Aqua Run 2 ! A tidal wave took over Sunway Lagoon as it brought more than 800 runners to the second installment of AQUA RUN– a water themed ‘fun run’ featuring 12 fun zones spanning approximately 3.5km.

We start with cool Zumba Dance! Everyone was spotting and dance it out at the surf beach, Sunway Lagoon!

There you go, WE ARE READY TO KICK START THE AQUA RUN!

Ops! This is the First Obstacle that we got to go through! Totally wet...

The fun run is aimed at getting the community outdoors and spend time together with family and friends, in line with Sunway Lagoon’s objective as a one-stop fun destination for guests to have the ‘Best Day Ever’.

To kick off the morning, we got to climbed the Avalanche Peak and were drenched by splashes of water at the Splash Attack that got them ready for what’s to come! Mouse mommy has been attacked till cannot move! Ops! It does not stop here, mouse mommy was revenges back by splashing water to the pool attendants. Haha!

Mouse mommy and friends had to navigate through the specially-designed fun zones with its unique spills and surprises at the Puddles Mattress, Daredevil Splash Mountains, Kiddie Pool Arena, Rain Shower, Wet Blocks, Zambezi River Adventure, Water Boogie Disco and Commando Flood Tunnel.

Besides that, the Photo-Op Challenge tested participants’ ability to take their best shots amidst splashing water.

Many photos that we snapped till our mobile phone "full house"!

It was a splendid day filled with thrills and excitement as runners got to roam through the theme park to see its iconic attractions such as Malaysia’s Largest Man-Made Surf Beach, Asia’s 1^st Nickelodeon-themed land, Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon, among others.

Runners enjoyed themselves at the Music Party finale before spending the rest of the day at the park.

“With over 90 rides across 80 acres of space, Sunway Lagoon continues to offer a wonderful place for family and friends to get together and have fun. From the success and overwhelming response of last year’s inaugural Aqua Run, we have decided to have this year’s edition on a larger scale and greater than before! We are really happy that each campaign attracts a tremendous turnout as it proves that we are heading in the right direction to appeal to the public. We uphold our promise to continuously provide new experiences for each guest that comes to our park,” commented Sean Choo, General Manager of Sunway Lagoon.

Mobile phones were tucked away safely with Sunway Lagoon’s waterproof pouch which was provided to all guests to snap photos as memories with the #SunwayLagoonMY and #SLAquaRun2 hashtags. The event would not have been a success with the support from sponsors, Titan Scuba Asia - Let's Scuba Dive Be Your Lifestyle, Yogood Glow Bar – Cereal Bars With Collagen and Ballop Malaysia - trendy, functional and ultralight-weight skin shoes excellent for water, fitness and outdoor activities.

We are really enjoying the Sunway Lagoon Aqua Run 2! After the obstacle challenge fun run, we are explore and continuous have fun at Sunway Lagoon water park!
