Posted on 8:23 PM by Unknown
Our last post on this blog mentioned one of the many FIFA World Cup-centric ads that are currently being aired across the globe. After watching a few more over the last week, I wanted to profile one particular ad which I believe captured the true spirit of the event in a very relatable, and global context.

Cadbury Malaysia in hot water over pig DNA found in ‘halal’ products
Posted on 5:30 PM by Unknown
Cadbury has recently come under fire in Malaysia after traces of pig DNA were detected in two of their product lines during routine checks for non-halal substances, conducted by The Malaysian Health Ministry.
