Yes, I agree that P1′s “Sudah Potong?” approach has nothing to do with the so-called ‘sexual innuendo’ or something like that. It is the person who interpreted/thought it that way who needs to be fixed. At least the “Sudah Potong!” approach is more general than TMNET’s “Jangan Potong!” campaign which appears too personal and anti-technology in nature (or should I say anti rivalry?)

urghhh! i prefer streamyx’s ad…..it has great logic that wireless broadband like maxis,p1 and stuff has unstability……of course i like wimax for i can bring the modem around the house but its very unstable and my download speed has “potong” down from 144kbps to 45kbps til the minimum 5kbps!!!!!! what an annoyance. last time, i didnt even have a problem with streamyx……im goin to subscribe again!!!!!!!!
Here are my series of complaints with wimax!

-Why is my ping frigging high until i got kicked off too often in Counter-Strike?!

-Why fair-usage? Please!

-Why is my speed cut down like hell?!

-Why can’t you inform me that the modem will undergo a firmware upgrade?!

That’s enough!
Broadband in Malaysia is slow!

if you listen carefully to Streamyx rebuttal ad, u will find this sentence: “Why STILL so slow one?”

they basically just admitted that they are slow to begin with (or the ad agency admitted for them lah).

Talking about Wi-Fi!
The ads from Streamyx
with the guy leaning out of the window…
Look closer and you will see that the red
switch on the extension cord is not even switch ON!
A Malaysia Boleh feat indeed.

i was looking at the picture of Michael Lai and the streamyx guy (up and down, up and down). they looked exactly the same, except the nose. the streamyx guys had a bigger nose >_<

Honestly, I don’t get the complains; they themselves have the mindset that it is suggestive. =_=

My dad instantly said it was Michael Lai as well lol
