Inbox: Funny Thailand Commercials
Thursday, September 06, 2007
seen the Anything/Whatever commercial shown on TV occasionally nowadays? if you thought that was refreshing, that is actually how most Thailand TV ads are. here are some of the better ones below.
do you think Singapore ads can ever be done this way without drawing criticism from the general public? there are people complaining about the Okamoto condom ads on trains already, if something like those in Marie France Bodyline appears... sheesh.
of course another factor to consider if the local ad agencies can have such creativity. I eagerly anticipate the arrival of that day.
oh, most of the videos load amazingly quickly (except the yellow pages because of its larger size) on my side. think it would be the same for most of you too.
enough of talking. here we go. credits to the original poster in HardwareZone for all the digging, and me for reformulating the codes to work with the blog and the uncreative taglines.

some random Thai bank. personally find this the funniest of all.
a beer commercial.
"Cheers" beer ad. probably infamous by now.
from the "cashier" in the Anything/Whatever commercial found in Singapore.
the Health Promotion Board of Thailand gets their message across really differently compared to our own.
Marie France Bodyline. it sure brought its message across, though in a very wrong way. criticism would run rampant if it ever got onto our TV screens.
A ceiling brand commercial involving two lizards falling flat onto a chessboard.
another Marie France Bodyline. this is much less insulting than the previous one though.
Gatsby-wannabe, Thailand edition.
an energy drink. that guy sure had plenty of energy.
a telecom company in Thailand.
a chewing gum commercial.
thai yellow pages. what a twist.
some spray that prevents smell in shoes.
another variant of the same energy drink once again based on multitasking.
