Malaysia Book Update 12: Contest For Bloggers

Posted by QuaChee | 3:35 PM | , , | 30 comments »

Firstly, to the invited bloggers who signed up to review the 50+1 Malaysia book, thank you :)

Next, an announcement I would like to make.

Finally, we can be like Santa Claus for once.
I've mentioned before on me having some goodies for bloggers with regards to my current project, the 50+1 Malaysia book. Well, finally after quite a few months of work, I can make this announcement to those of you who own a blog.

Yes, to all bloggers/ blog owners, this is for you... and this time round, the good news is coming not from any other Paid Advertiser, but my company :)

The Good News
We are giving away 100 copies of the 50+1 Malaysia books to the lucky bloggers (worth RM51 each).

The work is simple (yes, need some work, but trust me, it's real easy). Simply write about your Love story on Malaysia (ie what you Love about the country) in your blog, and let us know.

Simple right? Well, I hope that you guys will join in the fun, especially with Merdeka month just round the corner! (It's time we show Malaysia, we bloggers care) :)

*Info on the contest at: 50+1 Malaysia: Contest For Bloggers.

*This contest is open to both Malaysian bloggers & international bloggers.

Coming up next, I'll share with you who were the companies that made this whole project (including the contest) possible :)

    it can be a funny post if you like as well - eg if malaysia politics if your cup of tea, then ramble ahead (but make sure its positive in a way) haha :)

  6. I'm Choonie. // Sunday, July 20, 2008 2:59:00 PM

    You are really good. You can guess what I have in mind. I now hate my country because of the politics situation but nay... I am not good in writing politics matter and I think I shouldn't say too much in my blog too. Will reserve it for some other coffee session. hahahaha...
    I am still wondering what to write. Got due date, kah?

    Hi Bengbeng

    Thank you for your wishes :) The love story is a new campaign I just created that I thought would help create awareness of the book and at the same time, promote & unite Malaysians :)

    (but for you, as a blogger khaki, im giving you a complimentary book for review) :)
