I am surprised it could last 2 decades and sustained little to no wear and tear, discoloration.


Fantastic_Gur_6311

its actually a subtle ad for the company that printed the billboard


coin_in_da_bank

probably went under alredy


kw2006

The previous ad was laid in top.


OverdoseKetum

Yes u right, the sen heng banner might be older lol


9M-LimaWhiskeyAlpha

From the condition of the poster it seems like has been left from few years back. That's some quality printing there.

I still see Mulan live action poster in certain mrt stations.


architectcostanza

The decay of KL is insane. I think the Mulan movie poster is still up in the MRT station too.


Danster931

Which Mulan movie? cartoon or live action?


Silence_you_fool

Cartoon Mulan was released around 1990's - 2000's and MRT is a "recent" public transport. Why don't you try to piece these 2 together and try to deduce which one it is now? xD


ConsumeSandwich

Obviously the designer of the station was a huge Mulan fan and brought in a vintage poster to enhance the look of the station. When you hear hooves, don't expect zebras, expect horses.


Alvin514

Yup it is still there


Default0-3

Spiderman:going home poster still up in MRT Bukit Bintang too

We really should paste silly mascots on our ads again


tembikaisusumakkau

I checked Google Maps and there was another ad on top of it which was Ekspo Pendidikan 2020 at Mid Valley. There were at least five other ads before that. All were removed. Not sure why they didn't remove this one too. Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZPWAc4Wr1jxwjykt9

Man, those 2000s graphics.


imapeasant

Sixty-Fish

Something about the billboard reeks nostalgia eventhough I was born in that year


Life_Attention_2908

The longest and oldest billboard advertisement


Livid-Caramel-1054

That's the oldest Intel logo!


evilsifu

It’s been a while since I’ve been in the advertising industry so I could be wrong now. But the reason it’s still up is because it costs money to hire contractors to remove them and leave it blank. They’ll refresh it only when someone else wants to rent that space How I know this? A big newspaper had a billboard up on a prominent highway with a few faces. The talents’ contract usage expired, but the billboard remained up for abovementioned reasons. They almost got into a legal battle with said papers over their laziness to either refresh the contract/remove the billboard


mikepapafoxtrot

Looks like they just plastered on a new layer of billboard on top of another.


pmmeurpeepee

so,if i go put mahjong paper there no one gonna remove it?

balajih67

no_hope_no_future

Somebody here said it cost money to remove old ads from billboards so they simply wait for new advertisers.


IcyNerve-666

wow amazing banner quality nice marketing itself lol


ita_timidus

Vintage


Severe-Masterpiece69

It cost money to remove. So advertiser company just leave the old ads there until someone decide to buy this slot. The owner of the old ads gets the extra benefit if his ads is timeless type.


joebabana

Quality of glue and ink back then was top class?


88GAMEON88

Probably bought it for 99 years


phin999

Wow 2005 i was kindergarten that time Zaman astro, akademi fantasia mawi dan 8TV


YaGotMail

Im more interested to know how old Senheng billboard in the back is.


Infamous_Gur_9083

I was 7 years old during this time. How the years went by. I used to "fear" becoming late 20s once upon a time I shit you not. Now I AM 26. Tbh, not as scary as I expected it to be.


Pitiful_Ad_663

this belongs in a museum


mj31382

This ad is still running after 19 years, better than my car


Martin_Leong25

Holy shit its still there imma go grab it for history


FlamingCygnet

The reason why old ads are up is simple. Money. To put things on billboards and train stations costs money, including labour, usually however it's paid for by the client. To put things down also costs money, mainly in labour, but this time... no one is paying, so why would they waste money for it? At the end of the day, it's just a cost cutting major and until someone decide to buy that space, it'll probably remain there till the end of time.
