IK Yellow, the flagship multifunction business paper brand of Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) Sinar Mas in Malaysia, ran a Buy, Scan & Win ‘’Scantastic Promo” from 1st August 2022 to 31st January 2023, where participants had to purchase any two reams of IK Yellow A4 70g 500s, IK Yellow A4 80g 500s, IK Yellow A4 70g 450s, or IK Yellow A4 80g 450s from authorised resellers to participate.

The winner, Ms Wong Wan Er, was surprised and elated at the same time, ‘’I still can’t believe that this is real, but perhaps I will once I drive home in the Proton X50. When I first heard about this competition, I remember asking my friends and family to buy IK Yellow paper, so that they would have a chance of winning the grand prize. I never thought that I would be the one to win it. Thank you so much IK Yellow for the grand prize, I will continue supporting this quality paper brand.’’
Ms Wong shared that she had registered her marriage last year and her parents were worried about her travelling without a car. But thanks to IK Yellow, this worry has now been eliminated. She adds that the family can now travel around more conveniently and often with her new car.
Alex Foong, National Sales Manager of IK Yellow said “We are very happy with the response we received for the Scantastic Promo and congratulate Ms Wong on winning the grand prize.
