Petronas Is Tops Among Branded Videos on YouTube This Week

Celebrates Malaysia's history through 2 friends

This week’s No. 1 video on the Adweek/VidIQ top 10 branded YouTube video chart is an interesting departure from the action-packed clips that typically dominate the rankings. It comes from energy brand Petronas to celebrate two holidays: Merdeka Day and Malaysia Day.

The three-minute video spans 57 years to showcase some of the major historical events to take place in Malaysia from the perspective of two childhood friends. One scene shows the boys jumping out of a Proton Saga, Malaysia’s first national car, while another scene depicts the country’s recent close win at the Thomas Cup badminton tournament after 22 years of defeat.
