This Chinese New Year, concerns over inflation were reducing the spirit of celebration. Since the cost of living is increasing, we wanted to create a campaign to bring more joy towards others by adding a little more care, love and appreciation! Oloiya demonstrated these values by not increasing the prices of their product but added 6% more dried meat instead! Various products catering to the needs of kids, the elderly and even the health-conscious were created to show their thoughtfulness.
Oloiya continued their culture of giving by distributing goodie bags to the elderly, fundraising for Chinese schools, sponsoring Lion Dance teams and also serving ice-cold herbal tea to the patrons of Petaling Street.
面對加價，加一聲嘆息只会减少新春的喜悦；
加重開銷，加几句抱怨也不會抵消辦年貨的重擔。
負負未必得正，但我們可“以加制加”。
對社群，何不多加一些關心？
對他人，何不多加一些愛心？
對顧客，何不多加一些貼心？
對親友，何不為他們多付出一些，增加一點開心？
你附加的心意，是免費的，也是無價的。
就讓我們以正面的情緒為生命灌溉一個春天。
"以加制加，扭转乾坤！"

加加加！商品纷纷酝酿加价
有谁可以幸免呢？
别以为与你无关就可以继续逍遥自在！
当生活开销大大提升，恐怕恐怕乞丐的收入也大受影响！
短片二
既然加价趋势无法避免，我们何不“以加制加”？
比如：
为亲戚朋友加多点关心，
为社会加多点爱心，
为世界加多点开心！
多加正能量来抵消负面情绪！

Launched by KongsiKL, the Klang River Festival (KRF) 2022 is an annual event aimed at sparking public dialogue on heritage, culture, and identity. Originally conceived as a farewell to KongsiKL’s previous lease, the festival sought to highlight the river’s role in the city, raise awareness about conservation, climate change, and cultural preservation, and encourage more sustainable urban lifestyles. Realising the event’s potential, KRF evolved into an ongoing tradition to honor the river, an essential yet often overlooked part of the city.
KRF serves as an open platform that brings together individuals, NGOs, and the private sector to foster socio-ecological sustainability. The festival’s core mission is to reconnect people with the river and celebrate its significance.
Focused on Kuala Lumpur, a city founded at the confluence of two rivers, KRF works to raise awareness of the river’s importance through alternative lifestyles and the innovative use of public spaces. By transforming the Klang River Valley into a more livable space, KRF encourages people to rediscover their connection to the river, through events held in the city’s iconic heritage buildings.The festival comprises:
· book documentation
· dialogue sessions with scholars, researchers and members of public
· arts performances
· workshops
· creative installations
· curated markets
· heritage walks
· film screenings
The 2023 Klang River Festival aimed to reconnect Kuala Lumpur’s residents with the Klang River, a connection often overshadowed by urbanisation. Running for 17 days from September 9th, the festival featured a diverse program across 11 venues along the river.
Through exhibitions, talks, film screenings, workshops, performances, and guided tours, the festival delved into the river’s history, ecology, and cultural significance. Focusing on themes of ecology, community, and culture, the event sought to raise awareness of the river's importance and inspire a renewed bond with this vital natural and cultural resource.
Presented by KongsiKL and supported by EXSIM, the Klang River Festival returns with a transformative theme, "Act!vate," aiming to spark environmental awareness and inspire collective action to reconnect with nature and revitalise the Klang River.
The festival featured a diverse program spanning from September to December 2024, including educational initiatives, an international exchange on riverine reactivation, stakeholder meetings, alignments, and public writing workshops. It culminated in a grand finale from November 29 to December 1, with workshops, activities, and events fostering community-driven efforts in environmental conservation.
