Sometimes it’s great to know how the power of social media when use appropriately and effectively, it can create the right buzz with some impact. Yesterday was a great example when a group of people involved in a community project organised a recycling campaign under the flagship of The Green Apeel.

The purpose of their project is to create awareness among the community on recycling and at the same time, they were also raising funds for YASKA (Yayasan Kanser Kanak-Kanak). I love the idea of them decorating some of the recycling bins to steal the attention of the community and educate them at the same time about recycling.

Yesterday they had a campaign drive for the public to bring in their recyclable goods so The Green Apeel can deliver these items for recycling and in exchange, they will raise some funds as the recycling monies will be donated to YASKA. There was quite a response as the group involved made use of social media to spread awareness and it paid off.

There was also an artistic impression on their Instagram posts (do check out @thegreenapeel and their hashtag #thegreenapeel) which made it trendy and catching the eyes of the social media users. This was a brilliant way of drawing the attention and most importantly, educating the users on means of recycling and its benefits.

The group would like to thank all the supporters for the event and the recycle bins will be out there until the 25th May at Times Square Shopping Centre and Yayasan Shopping Complex.

Muscular, elegant and confident: these are some of the words that can describe the much anticipated Audi A3 Sedan.

The crowd cheered as the coupe-like sedan was finally unveiled during the official launching ceremony of the A3 Sedan held at the Indera Samudra Grand Hall, the Empire Hotel & Country Club on Saturday.

Among those present during the night were TCY Group of Companies Chairman Teng Ching Ying, Deputy Head of Mission at the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany Helmut Domas and customers and guests of TCY Motors.

“The new A3 Sedan is completely redesigned and shares not a single body panel with its sister models, the three-door A3 and five-door Sportback. It is a sedan instead of a wagon unlike its predecessor,” said Dave Sivanantham, TCY Motors general manager.

He further shared that the premium compact sporty sedan offers the latest in progressive technology, such as Audi’s Ultra Lightweight technology, which allegedly has made the new A3 Sedan lighter than its nearest competitor by over 60 kilogrammes and faster with 24hp more output.

He further stated that the A3 Sedan was recently declared the World Car of the Year 2014 by automotive journalists from 22 countries.

“Now, after much anticipation the all-new A3 Sedan is introduced to the Sultanate and is offered at a competitive price of $53,900 without compromising on luxury, design or performance,” said the general manager.
