Galeri Petronas will be showcasing 20 years worth of Petronas festive commercials until February 2016, entitled “#tanahairku: Two Decades of Bringing Malaysians Together.”

Featuring a selection of 21 iconic and memorable festive commercials which captured the true essence of the Malaysian spirit, Galeri Petronas’ #tanahairku exhibition will be the first of its kind in Malaysia that focuses on this unique genre of commercials.

Petronas festive commercials have been capturing Malaysian hearts and minds since its inception in 1996 through its storytelling. These tatler_tatler_stories tell simple but elegant, heart-warming tatler_tatler_stories, which reflect moral values, cultural diversity, harmony and traditions, all of which play an important role in our daily lives.

One of the noteworthy commercials that stands out from the rest is the simple yet beautiful tale of ‘Tan Hong Ming in Love’, a short video interview conducted by the late Yasmin Ahmad which features a schoolboy and his schoolmate, Ummi.

The #tanahairku exhibition is open for public viewing with no admission charges at 10am to 8pm from Tuesday to Sunday.
