The commitment from the Reprise team in helping us deliver on this promise has been unparalleled, and we wish the Speedy Tigers all the best in their first game on Saturday."Stanley Clement, managing director of Reprise said TNB has long played an active role in the development of hockey as a sport in Malaysia. With Hokita, the agency wanted to give TNB an opportunity to establish its support on a digital front that is relevant and emotive for not just hockey fans, but Malaysians in general.“We wanted to provide a vehicle to educate Malaysians about the sport and the World Cup. At the same time, we wished to enable fans and Malaysians near and far to provide pledges of support to boost the morale of the team who are facing a tough competition ahead in the group of death. The message here is that the team can count on the full support of all Malaysians," Clement added.
