E-Learning Week Issue: "Singaporeans are easily influenced by advertisements." Do you agree?

3 posts/comments from Eugene:

Agree. When a commercial comes out on TV and show that some certain stores are going on sale and usually the next day you'll see a lot of people at the shop. This also partly because of the "KIASU" effect of the local people has.

Agree. Singaporeans love to follow trend and especially when they see posters or advertisements on newspapers or on the streets, they tend to think that its "cool" and "hip" just like the recent IPOD marketing where you can see on commercials being air at prime time and posters everywhere on the streets. And the result of that is: You can see plenty of people listening on white earphones on the streets.

Agree. Local TV commercials are becoming more attractive and innovative. Even a 3 year old kid knows how to hum along the tune when the commercial is being played.
