The iconic MILO® truck evokes a wave of nostalgia, reminding Malaysians of simpler times and the delicious comfort of a nutritious, ice-cold MILO®. As the country celebrates 67 years of independence, the ‘Dulu, Kini, Selamanya Demi Malaysia’ message pays tribute to the triumphs and struggles that have been the foundation of Malaysia’s unity, while proudly showcasing MILO® as Buatan Malaysia (Made in Malaysia), created by Malaysians for Malaysians.
At the heart of MILO®’s celebration is the ‘Malaysia Boleh Bersama MILO®’ contest from 1 August to 30 September 2024, where the public stand to walk away with over RM1,000,000 in prizes.
