A McDonald’s Singapore advertisement highlighting their Malaysian employees unable to reunite with loved ones during Ramadan is tugging hearts online.
The ad, released in conjunction with the holy fasting month for Muslims, focuses on the chain’s Singapore-based Malaysian staffers separated from their family due to Covid-19 that necessitated border closures.
“During Ramadan, it is customary for Muslim families to sit around the same table and break fast together”, McDonald’s Singapore wrote on their official YouTube channel.
“Due to Covid, the large number of Malaysian Muslims who work in Singapore cannot celebrate Ramadan with their loved ones back at home”.
The video titled My Happy Table celebrates the Ramadan spirit despite separation through the eyes of three staff members.
The touching clip ends with a tearful virtual reunion of the three families that was filmed in McDonald’s Malaysia where they are seen breaking fast together.
Liverpool were denied a place in the top four of the Premier League when they could only manage a 1-1 draw against Leeds United on Monday.
Actually, the outcome didn't matter anymore! If the Super League were to come to fruition, the result of this match or any other match is no longer important. Liverpool could lose every game from here on out and still go toe-to-toe with Europe’s ‘big guns’!
BTW, football fans had gathered outside the Elland Road ground in Leeds and staged a protest – during which a Liverpool shirt was burned – and a plane flew over the stadium displaying an anti-Super League message.
Inside the stadium, Leeds players wore T-shirts saying 'Earn it' next to the Champions League logo and 'Football is for the fans'. A banner behind one goal had the same message.
