KUALA LUMPUR: Castrol Malaysia has announced the launch of ‘Hari Mekanik Malaysia’ campaign, an initiative aimed at recognising the unsung heroes in our lives – our mechanics.
This comes following the success of the Castrol Super Mechanic Contest which was held in 2017 and 2018 with the primary aim of giving mechanics a platform to upskill themselves whilst competing amongst each other.
“Mechanics play a significant role in not only restoring vehicle performance but also ensuring the safety of the drivers, riders, passengers and pillions in vehicles. This celebration recognises their contribution to the automotive industry in the country,” said Castrol Malaysia & Singapore marketing director Keow Mei-Shan.
The campaign, which started this month and will run till September 2020, includes a series of events involving roving cars visiting workshops in major cities nationwide.
Members of the public are encouraged to nominate their favourite mechanic via online nomination process. Nominators, under the car and truck category, would win a one-year free service equivalent to 4 bottles of 4-litre Castrol MAGNATEC 10W-40 if their nomination produces a winner, whilst nominators under the motorcycle category would win six bottles of one-litre Castrol POWER1 10W-40.
From the nominations received, 10 mechanics from each category would be shortlisted in three rounds of short-listing process.
Castrol currently offers an exclusive discount of RM30 off the total bill when the car is serviced at any Castrol Auto Service workshops or RM3 off the total bill when the motorcycle is serviced at any Castrol Bike Point workshops through participation of online activities during the campaign period.
Castrol ‘Hari Mekanik Malaysia’ will be held on March 18, 2020. To find out more about Castrol and its products, visit www.castrol.com/my.
