McDonald's x Coca Cola 2012 London Summer Olympic Games Glass Collection Launch

My relation between Coca Cola has been a interesting journey, I should say, I grew up with it.
As such,it was a homecoming feel with all the jingles lingering when I stepped onto the McDonald's.

I was at this McDonald's for a purpose today in relations to McDonald's and Coca Cola,which in turn something has to do with London 2012 Summer Olympic Games.

As the world holds its breath in anticipation of the upcoming Olympic games,we ought to show our support to our athletes who are competing in various events.

With the invitation from omy.sg, I was invited to chill out with one of the Athlete Ambassadors featured in Grammy Award Winning Producer Mark Ronson's Move to the Beat music video ,Team Singapore Olympian Dayyan Jaffar, while witnessing the brand new 2012 London Olympic Games Glass Collection from McDonald's.

 

Dayyan is selected by Coca Cola as a Athlete Ambassador to work with Mark Ronson in this video as himself (and the robin hood) on stage.

This music video is well created with the confluence between music and the sports,with the precise orchestration by Mark Ronson,this video has got me captivated and in awe.Where Sports meets Music in this song.

 Dayyan Jaffar is the one-half bronze medalist in Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games in Archery,  mixed team category.

This year,he is selected by the grand old dame(Coca-Cola to be represented as an Athlete Ambassador for its 2012 London 2012 Olympic Campaign.Being the face to represent Singapore in this video has brought Singapore to another level on the world Map.

Check Out the behind the scene of the video here when Mark Ronson was in Singapore for the production.

Of course,every man has a woman behind supporting his success. For Dayyan Jaffar,his mom is the support and in appreciation for her effort in raising the athlete,a bouquet of flower was presented to Dayyan's mom by the representative from Coca-Cola.

Having said that,Dayyan's mom,here's to you.
