The Real Maggi Ad

We've all seen this ad on TV before... But I was just thinking to myself: When has Maggi ever been ready in under 2 minutes?

Whether it was a rival political party or a concerned citizen, I just want to say a big thanks for this public service that you've done. Oh! And last night, while returning home, I saw a huge banner flat on the ground... I'd like to think that even nature's on our side! *wink*
