PETALING JAYA: Telekom Malaysia’s Erti Merdeka contest, which received an overwhelming 20,000 entries, has underscored the company’s objective to help youngsters grasp the meaning of independence, said its brand management and media group marketing general manager Junaidah Junid. 

“We wanted a programme that is meaningful for the community. Teenagers are very detached from the real meaning of Merdeka. And it’s important to let them be aware of the meaning,” she said yesterday.
