Hong Leong Bank Virtual Lou Sang Renew and Refresh for Oxpicious Year
This Chinese New Year, re energizing your finances with Hong Leong Bank CNY’s promotions aimed at helping Malaysians renew and refresh for an Ox-picious year with attractive interest rates, cashback and savings. We had our first yee sang and lou sang of the year at Hong Leong Bank Virtual Lou Sang Renew and Refresh for Oxpicious Year.
It is a great way to start 2021 with a virtual lou sang (our first virtual lousang) with real yee sang. The cool thing about this is the PR company sent us the yee sang so we can lou sang with the other media friends during the Hong Leong Bank Virtual Lou Sang.
Hong Leong Bank Berhad (“HLB” or the “Bank”) has launched its Chinese New Year (“CNY”) campaign ‘Renew Together, Prosper Together’, which aims to continue supporting Malaysians renew, refresh and rebuild stronger in 2021 and beyond. The CNY campaign features attractive interest rates and new savings opportunities as well as lucrative cashback for e-Ang Pows via DuitNow.
Speaking at the virtual launch of the campaign, Domenic Fuda, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of HLB shared that the spirit of reunion and coming together to overcome challenges is even more profound this Lunar New Year. CNY, also known as ‘Guo Nian’ in Chinese, literally means overcoming Nian, a beast that would cause untold destruction to villages on CNY eve. It was said that a group of villagers worked together to chase away Nian. Since then, generations of people unite and come together every CNY eve, celebrating with full festivities to ensure Nian does not return.
“It seems fitting to compare COVID-19, to the Nian of our time. The events of the past year have triggered circumstances that call for a re-examination on how we explore new possibilities to serve and support customers, how we work and support each other, and how we interact and build relationships to continue operating effectively. If CNY traditions have one thing to impart on us, it is that we can always overcome any challenges by being united in our mind, spirit, purpose and actions.”
“As a community Bank, we will continue to serve and support our customers through our payment relief assistance plans as well as uplift the communities around us through offering relevant products and services that help clients with their finances and spending. More importantly, we will also continue to support individuals, SMEs and corporates seeking to strengthen and future-proof their finances and businesses, while ramping up our efforts in the digital banking front to ensure that customers are able to seamlessly access our banking services through a fully digital on-boarding and on-going servicing experiences.”
Charles Sik, Managing Director of Personal Financial Services of HLB shared that with recovery and rebuilding new beginnings are key focus areas for many consumers and businesses this year. “Keeping in mind that Malaysians will continue to forge ahead this year with optimism, determination and patience, we have curated a host of Ox-picious offerings to help everyone re-energise their finances and lifestyle this CNY. We will also be rewarding businesses who embrace going cashless, while making sure the ang pow giving traditions live on through digital means. After all, when we ‘Renew Together, we Prosper Together’.”

“As we remain together to support each other in the fight against the pandemic, there are lessons we can learn from Ah Boy and Po Po. Taking a page out their book, we can see that it pays to come together and plan ahead, to defeat the common enemy, before rebuilding and renewing lives in times of unprecedented adversity. After all, when we unite and ‘Renew Together, we Prosper Together’ and we are the ones who will reap the benefits of a prosperous life in a prosperous Malaysia”, said Zalman Zainal, Chief Marketing and Communication Officer of HLB.
Zalman added, “Though it may be a myth, the lesson holds true and that has always been the point of myths. To allow the next generation to better learn from past mistakes and successes and, to better ourselves. We have come a long way, but we still have some ways to go before the pandemic subsides, therefore making plans today is the best step we can take towards securing our future. As the popular Chinese proverb goes ‘The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now’.”
