China is not as you imagine
August 8th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
Hey rain, thanks for your comment. I’m sure China is not totally like this ad. First of all these ads try to exaggerate. But China also has many problems concerning human rights and rich and poor. Sure there are successful stories of modernized and open China, but there are also many problems out there. Unfortunately. I don’t want to talk about politics now and I do understand that nobody likes an ad like this about his own country, but even though it might be exaggerate, you shouldn’t close your eyes before these problems.

China executes over 10,000 people a year, Thats the highest number of criminals killeded in a single country per year. Thats what the ad is about. Not day to day life
August 8th, 2008 at 4:54 pm
This is where you can see a successful ad, people talk about and see what the message is about. Like Cory says, I’m sure they don’t invent those numbers. You cannot deny this problem in China.
August 9th, 2008 at 10:43 am
I know that many Chinese there are indeed problems, including our friends on the Internet so that, very often we feel very helpless. As you said, we do not discuss political issues, everyone has everyone’s faith……
(Sorry, because my English is so poor, so I only use google translation to expression mind , please understand)

Thanks for making this list, there’s some brilliant stuff in there. I wonder what agencies are behind some of these ads…
August 9th, 2008 at 7:02 pm
Hey Failsafe, thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately I don’t know them, since I collected them from friends, emails, internet and there were mostly no information who did it.
@rain, don’t worry your English is good. As you said, everybody has it’s own opinion and faith.

great selection of ads, it’s great to see creativity put to work for a good cause
August 10th, 2008 at 5:33 am
@Gianni, yeah, imagine they would be boring and plain. Nobody would notice them and it wouldn’t get the attention they need.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Man, some of those are just awful to look at, it is so sad to see all of the problems in our world!
I am going to give you a well deserved stumble on this
It must have taken a long time to write this post!
August 12th, 2008 at 4:22 am
Thank you Chelle
appreciate that. Indeed it is sad to see all the problems in the world and I hope those kind of ads can help a little bit.
August 12th, 2008 at 8:30 am
Your blog is really effective to show the problem of the world and open our eyes. It is interesting.

Thank you Samuel, glad it works for some people.
August 14th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Very good post…
August 15th, 2008 at 10:06 am
Thanks for this selection of ads, very impressive !
August 16th, 2008 at 1:58 am
Farther is what relates to distance, not further.

Thanks Michael! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you Vem, I´m happy you liked it.

I was impressed especially with the non-smoking ads. The toothbrush-toothpaste one is nausiating - and effective! Hope it changes people’s minds about smoking.
August 24th, 2008 at 3:37 am
Those smoking ads are scary, and I imagine, pretty effective! The amnesty international ads are downright scary and thought-provoking.
August 24th, 2008 at 4:54 am
@Shlomo, I hope so too.
@Aibal, I guess then they hit the intention to be scary and provoking.
August 28th, 2008 at 5:34 am
very interesting and pleasing ad. The hungry ad is quiet loyal and can motivate the new helping hands in this world. These ads can break the rocky hearts and let us to know where we are.
August 31st, 2008 at 6:16 am
Hey Francisca, exactly, I hope it reaches some rocky hearts.

@bot_idiot, unfortunately very true.
