It is definitely a good milestone and a very significant mark in history. We welcome everyone to celebrate our 25 Creative years with us.” said Sim Wong Hoo. “To mark this very special occasion, I will donate my personal car in the hope to involve Creative management and staff, as well as the public to raise more funds for this very innovative charity drive.” Fund raised in this charity drive will be donated to selected charity organisations for the aged.
