KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 1 — Popular video/VFX creator Mohamad Sofian Abdullah or more known as Sofyank went viral again, this time with a tourism promotion video for…Singapore.
Sofian was seen sharing travel tips, mentioning the requisite Singapore MRT stations as well as walking times to popular stops.
He described the trip shown in his video as calming and fulfilling, noting that he enjoyed discovering places “many don’t yet know about.”
The video quickly went viral, but reactions were mixed:
Supportive voices praised Sofyank’s creativity and Singapore’s bold tourism strategy, noting that “free promo won’t pay bills” and urging Malaysia’s tourism authorities to learn from Singapore’s influencer collaborations.
Others questioned why a Malaysian creator was promoting Singapore instead of Malaysia, especially with Visit Malaysia 2026 around the corner.
