Write a short summary of what happens in the film

Malaysians love food, or as we call it, “makan”. As a nation home to many ethnicities, food brings Malaysians together. Malaysia Day is a national holiday celebrating the union of East and West Malaysia, symbolising unity among all Malaysians. To celebrate Malaysia Day, Grab created a music video featuring close to 400 Grab Signatures restaurants in a single film, where the lyrics and visuals were comprised almost entirely of restaurant names and food.

Please tell us about the cultural insight that inspired the work

In Malaysia, food, or as we call it, “makan”, is a national treasure. Being a multi-cultural nation, we enjoy and share cuisine from all the ethnicities that call Malaysia home, and food is a common factor that unites us. Malaysia Day is a national holiday that celebrates the union of East and West Malaysia, and symbolises unity amongst all Malaysians, regardless of race or creed. Celebrating Malaysia Day with food was Grab’s way of bringing Malaysians together over a common love for flavour.
