If you remember just a few weeks ago, the country was abuzz with comments and critiques in regards to the supposed grammatical error seen on the logo’s copywriting.
Riding on a similarly artsy trending theme on social media, comic artist VieN took to Twitter to poke fun at this fact, illustrating how some local and international brands might adapt the disputable tourism campaign’s branding attempt.
McDonald’s
No “pada pa pa paaa” here apparently…
KFC
Oh, Colonel Sanders… What have they done to you?!
Nike
Just like the pair of knock offs they got at Petaling Street!
THOT Hot FM
Music that’ll have you busting down all day…
Milo
Too DOOG!
The Chicken Rice Shop
Whats chicken rice without the RICE?
Though quite quirky with his fun creations, VieN pointed out that the images were nothing more than just a harmless parody.
Zooming out of Twitterjaya… The internet had also been flooded with its share of parodies with mentions and memes trashing on Marvel Studio’s new ‘Loki’ series.

Just like our Visit Malaysia 2020 conundrum, fans were quick to judge the aesthetics of the new logo and how it does not represent the image and stature of Marvel and its line of shows with its weird assortment of seemingly random typefaces.
wow that logo for the Loki series is really something special! pic.twitter.com/XagfUPkccL
