Asian Heritage Month:

/
0 Comments
May is Asian Heritage Month and on Pushing Buses, I thought I'd celebrate it with a famous award-winning commercial for the MTR from Hong Kong.

The ad is beautifully shot and the idea is simple: the MTR - which is Hong Kong's subway system - is one of those things you can always count on.

And oh.

The MTR just happens to be that rare and exotic thing: a profitable transit system.

About the Bus Pusher

Gavin Barrett is Owner/Founding Partner + Creative Director, of award-winning Toronto agency Barrett and Welsh. In pursuit of big ideas he has: nibbled on pigs' ears (not on a live pig at the time); gone elephant-back in the Thai jungle (no elephants were hurt); gambled in a Macau casino (was utterly destroyed). His ads: have run in 35 countries, helped elect prime ministers, attracted the ire of the lawyers for Dolly the clone sheep, drawn an angry crowd in Lagos, have been studied in business texts in Canada and India and received derisive mention in a John Irving novel. His poems: can be found in Penguin’s anthology of 14 contemporary Indian poets, Reasons for Belonging. He cannot: sing.
