KUALA LUMPUR: The current spate of high-profile divorces among Malaysian celebrities has inspired certain businesses to ride on the hot topic to generate sales.
One such example is a car accessory shop in the Klang Valley offering a 50 per cent discount for those whose names are either Fattah or Emma.
This follows recent news of the split between Fattah Amin and Fazura as well as Emma Maembong and her husband, which became the talk of the town and had been hotly discussed across many social media chatgroups.
The car workshop in question took to social media recently and posted an announcement that read: "Tag those whose names are Fattah and Emma, and those who drive a Honda (Accord) SM4. We're offering them a 50 per cent discount on window tinting this whole month."
Amused by the marketing strategy, some netizens joked that they wanted to change their names to qualify for the offer by the shop.
"Great. I'm going to the National Registration Department (JPN) to change my name to Fattah," read a comment.
However, replies from the admin of the shop's social media account, have so far not seen anyone with those names taking up the offer.
It added that they might be opening up the promotion to other "hot" names as well.
