With the opening of Singapore’s first two casinos last year, Singaporeans who used to travel overseas for their gambling fix now have ready access to the betting tables – a catalyst that led to an increase in problem gambling cases.
Gambling is one of the favourite activities for Singaporeans over the Lunar New Year holidays, when many are prone to trying their hand in the name of the festive period. Ray of Hope (of Christian Care Services Singapore) wanted people to know that problem gambling is just like any other psychological disorder and can be treated with proper counselling.

Heineken and Wieden Kennedy Amsterdam is helping ignite romance this Valentine’s Day with the launch of a fun new Facebook application called ‘The Serenade’. Based on the brand’s second global film ‘The Date’, the new app enables Heineken consumers to send humorous personalized songs to potential partners, inviting them on a date. Available in twenty languages, ‘The Serenade’ is designed to put love in the air and smiles on faces around the world. Millions of adult consumers across the globe will be able to participate and create their own Serenade songs via Heineken®'s Facebook page - https://apps.facebook.com/heinekenserenade/

'The Serenade’ is part of the brand’s ‘Open Your World’ global campaign which celebrates and encourages aspirational behaviours among adult consumers. It follows the recent launch of ‘The Date’, which celebrated a man taking a woman on a legendary date, set to the catchy 1960’s Bollywood track, Jaan Pehechaan Ho by Mohammed Rafi. Through the app the same band that appeared in the ad will create songs for Heineken® fans.

On Thursday 9 February, Heineken will host 'Serenade Live', an 8-hour YouTube event, during which Heineken fans around the world will get the chance to ask someone out on a date in a legendary way with a serenade. This unique serenade will be written and performed live to their loved one by the Serenade Band. Event viewers will be able to watch their reaction live, and interact with the Serenade team - the presenter, the Band, and some rogue sound engineers – via Heineken Twitter, Facebook and Youtube.
