More prizes at MAGGI ‘Jom Masak and Menang’ contest

-

KOTA KINABALU: MAGGI continues to celebrate the Kaamatan month in Sabah with 15% more prizes to be won through its ‘Jom Masak and Menang Bersama MAGGI’ contest.

Thousands of celebrants will partake in a month-long celebratio­n of the May Harvest Festival here, which will involve a series of merry-making activities like dancing, singing, and of course, cooking a feast for family and friends to enjoy.

MAGGI has long been a part of East Malaysians’ daily lives, whether it’s a mother preparing breakfast for her children, a university student whipping up something quick and easy, or family and relatives coming together to prepare local favorites.

This year, MAGGI is ramping up the festivity mood with its contest, starting May 1 until June 30, 2019.

“I commend MAGGI for holding its fifth edition of Jom Masak and Menang Bersama MAGGI contest in conjunctio­n with the Kaamatan Festival, as it gives people from other cultures and countries the opportunit­y to learn and understand the significan­ce of the harvest festival to the native Sabahan community.

“Festivals and cultural activities such as Pesta Kaamatan play a big role in building social cohesion and strengthen­ing ties between generation­s, especially when family members and relatives come together to celebrate their cultural heritage by cooking up special dishes for the family feast.

“On this, MAGGI has been a beloved household brand for generation­s, and has become synonymous with Malaysian cooking,” said Rakam Sijim, political secretary to Minister of Agricultur­e and Food Industry, Datuk Junz Wong, during the launch of the Jom Masak and Menang Bersama MAGGI contest at 1Borneo Hypermall here yesterday.

To stand a chance to win any of the Jom Masak and Menang Bersama MAGGI prizes, entrants just have to buy participat­ing MAGGI products, collect packaging as proof of purchase (POP), answer two simple questions and submit the forms via Dropbox or by mail.

Celebrants can look forward to the build-up to the joyful season with the line-up of great prizes to be won during the two-month contest.

Entrants stand a chance to win a Limited Edition Isuzu D-Max X-Series truck worth RM136,000, cash prizes worth RM8,000, kitchen appliances worth RM13,500 as weekly prizes throughout the contest period, and petrol cards worth RM100 for every 1,000th qualified entry.

“Since MAGGI first held this annual contest series in 2015, especially for our East Malaysian customers in conjunctio­n with the Kaamatan and Gawai Dayak festivals, we have strived to make each edition bigger and better, with even more prizes to be won by our loyal East Malaysian customer base,” said Quek Teng Hiong, Nestle Sabah branch manager at the launch.

MAGGI will also be carrying out 12 exciting roadshows this year in the run-up to the Grand Finale, with Era FM Cruisers appearing at selected locations. Watch out for these roadshows as consumers can come away with exclusive MAGGI bag giveaways with purchases of MAGGI products worth RM25.

Besides the Jom Masak and Menang Besar with MAGGI competitio­n this year, consumers can enjoy the additional flavours of their Pedas Giler line as MAGGI is releasing its MAGGI Pedas Giler 2X bowl – which is 2X the spiciness and 2X the tastiness.

“Offering a wholesome and tasty solution to the family’s cooking needs, from MAGGI’s tasty and aromatic seasonings made with real spices or our springy instant noodles made with high quality wheat, MAGGI’s 2Minute Noodle (M2MN) remains a hearty breakfast option for today’s families that need to adapt and keep pace with the daily challenges,” said Quek.

MAGGI Curry, in particular, offers a ‘Dua Cara’ (two-way) cooking method which allows families to enjoy this irresistib­le variant as a soup dish or as a ‘mee goreng’.

Made with a blend of 12 spices and real chillies, the spices in MAGGI Curry will bring out the flavour in any variety of fresh ingredient­s like meat, vegetables or egg added to create a balanced meal, making for a perfect ‘mee goreng’ (fried noodle) breakfast for families on-the-go.
