WHAT do apples, tender loving messages, inspiring tales of our parents have in common? The answer lies in MBG’s appreciation campaign for parents running from April to June.

Fun with parents: Have a fruity time with your favourite people.
Entitled “Fruits Of Love for Pa & Ma”, the Parents’ Day campaign offers attractive fruit packages comprising premium apples, interesting fruity information and recipes at all MBG outlets.
Attached to the fruit package is an invitation to pen a short appreciation message for your parents. Complete with a snapshot of you and your parents, send in your entry to

to run for prizes comprising cash and fruits baskets. You can also snap pictures of your family instantly at the MBG outlets to run for the weekly prizes.

Thanks for your love: Show mum your appreciation with some fruits this year.
In addition, MBG has introduced a short story campaign to invite the public to share their love tales for parents.
Whether you are still single, just became a parent or have been one for years, we welcome loving snapshots of your family and an inspiring and appreciative message for the most important people in our lives.
MBG managing director Adnan Lee said besides appreciating parents, the inspiration behind this initiative was to bring out interesting human-interest stories surrounding parents in Malaysia.
“It will be a two-way thing — children can appreciate their parents’ goodness while parents can in turn, reveal inspirations and challenges on bringing up their children.
“It would be interesting to know if there are any ‘special parents’ out there such as the oldest or youngest parent in Malaysia or parents with the most children.Anything goes, so long your loving tale is parent-related!
“The best stories, besides winning prizes, will be posted online and shared with the media to inspire all Malaysians during this special time of the year,” he said.
“We reckon that there would be different types of parents in the country from various backgrounds, challenges, upbringings and techniques in raising their children.
“One thing remains the same — all of them love their children and will bring them up in the best way they can — that is the unconditional love of parents we hope to share with the public,” said Adnan.
So, if you think you like to show your love to your parents differently this year, submit a picture and a short story (not more than 100 words) to

.
The best three entries will receive a special MBG fruit hamper and a cash prize of RM200. The fruit baskets will be specially delivered to their homes.
