WeChat Party 2013 feat. Malaysian Ambassadors @LisaSurihani & @Shaheizy_Sam

In conjunction with the appointment of Lisa Surihani and Shaheizy Sam as its Malaysian celebrity brand ambassadors, WeChat through the good folks at PersonEdge invited us to celebrate the launch of its first Malay TVC, together with the local performers Awi RafaelHenley Hii, Vivian Chua, and the star DJ Rudy as the host for the night.

And boy was it a fun night or what!

Yeap, in the battle for mass users, WeChat has come to Malaysia by snapping up some of Malaysia’s most digital savvy celebrities, with Shaheizy Sam (956,000+ followers on Twitter, 460,000+ fans on Facebook) and Lisa Surihani (124,800+ followers on Twitter and 2,500,000+ fans on Facebook!) to be in board WeChat, and I’m sure their presence would cause their fans to directly contact them on the popular social messaging app – where you can even send voice messages instantly ala Walkie-Talkie style, “The New Way to Connect”.  (Get more features in the video below this post!)
