Last week, a Twitter post by a user named Zulfadhli Zin went viral online. In his tweet, he jokingly asked Mydin to sponsor him and the rest of his family members a new set of Hari Raya outfits. Not only that, he even boldly tagged the official account of the local retailer in his caption!
For context, Zulfadhli revealed that he has been buying his Hari Raya outfits from Mydin and also Kamdar since he was in secondary school. The Twitter admin for @MydinMalaysia then left a reply on his tweet. They suggested him to purchase a new set of Baju Melayu for this year.
Come on mydin, kami sekeluarga full set dari songkok, baju, sampin semua dari @MydinMalaysia . Tahun ni sponsor lah kami sekeluarga 🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/bJMyc9T5S2

He then responded, “Come on Mydin. Our Raya clothes – including the ‘sampin’ and even the ‘songkok’, – are all from @MydinMalaysia. Can you sponsor me and my family this year?” along with an edited photo of him and his parents. To his and (even the netizens’) surprise, Mydin later responded to his tweet.
In his subsequent update, Zulfadhli shared that Mydin had reached out to him via Direct Message (DM) on Twitter a few days after he posted his tweet. It appears that the netizen’s post had caught the eye of the managing director Datuk Wira (Dr.) Haji Ameer Ali Mydin!
As revealed by Zulfadhli in his Twitter post, the Mydin boss himself has offered to sponsor him 10 sets of Hari Raya outfits in appreciation of him and his family’s loyalty to the brand. However, the social media user shared that he will be donating all the clothes to the less fortunate converts (mualaf) around his area.

Semoga tuhan murahkan rezeki tuan @ameermydin & @MydinMalaysia ❤️.
Baju yang Mydin sponsor ni aku akan salurkan kepada Mualaf-mualaf yang susah di area Johor Bahru untuk raya. Aku akan susun dengan NGO Hidayah Centre Foundation Johor. pic.twitter.com/fXzUpJP4am
