Um, it was made by Mentos. But thanks for not reading or watching before commenting, per usual.

So... you didn't see the thread title state "By Mentos", the end of the video was advertising Mentos, and the article said this:

Enter the Mentos campaign, which was composed independently of the government as a parody of officially sanctioned National Day songs that play in the months leading up to Aug. 9 each year, and are sung during National Day parades.

The song, devised by ad agency BBH Asia-Pacific and spread via social media, is part of Mentos's plan to launch a special "I Heart SG" pack of their signature mints for this year's National Day. The agency was asked to come up with a campaign to "prove how much Mentos really 'hearts' " Singapore, according to the project's creative director, Adrian Chan.

"Mentos has always stood for 'fresh thinking,' so we decided to apply some to an issue that is very close to home: our declining national birthrate," said Mr. Chan.

Mr. Chan said he hopes the government will like it, given the importance and urgency of the issue of fertility in the city-state. Officials contacted about the song and its video said only that Singapore's government wasn't involved.

Again, Vedubin proves that only headlines matter to him, not actual content or facts.

So you said you watched it, but didn't really... although still confident that reading the article title gave you enough information to judge it?

Typical.

I asked a fucking question dick! See the question mark at the end of my first post?

I did not watch it all and just clicked though your link. Im also at work flipping between 2 monitors and trying to run a business.

What was your point in posting this video anyway. You promoting Mentos?

Hahahhaha. So you said you watched it, then said you you didn't make through it all, then now you didn't watch it at all? Maybe you should work and stop skewing ignorance.


Point: a) I found it funny
b) Singapore has a huge lack of baby problem from people not having work/life balance - even high-tech and successful business nations need to reproduce, or have a lot of immigration. I've talked about the US's need for immigration before and that our birth rate was much better than SE Asia or Europe, so we should be better off then them in the coming decades, and this gave good insight into Singapore's problems. (Graying Panda Shrinking Dragon is something we should pay attention to, as China is going to have issues soon because of it)

Watching it does not mean I completed the video. Then I said I did not make it all the way through. Still same meaning as I still have not said I watched it all. Then you go and add a word (in red) when trying to attack but failed in reading as I never said the word "at". Trying to create a contradiction in my posts.

Its cool,

Sorry I misread it as "at all" instead of "all". My bad, I'm just so used to you contradicting yourself.
