We bid goodbye as we announce the closing and wrap up of the Koolred Blog & Win Contest. What an amazing one month it’s been since the launch of our first ever blog contest on Koolred. The blog contest requires all contestants to submit a blog on any of these categories: Entertainment, Food & Drink, Lifestyle or Travel.


We can still remember how excited we got when we received our first blog entry for the contest! The excitement didn’t stop there as your contest entries kept coming in and mounting in numbers.

Majority of the entries were Travel-related and were pretty image-heavy (not that we’re complaining).
We enjoyed reading about your ventures around Asia as you explore both nature and city life in one trip. Some of you traveled to great extents and continents, and one of you even managed to travel around the world in just one day!


We’ve had quite a number of Food & Drink blogs too where you have written about the different types of local food you’ve eaten during your trip. It’s always fun and interesting to learn about other food and restaurants that were never heard of- who would have thought they had a Hello Kitty Sweets Café in Taiwan?


The best way to experience a travel is by living like the locals- we couldn’t agree more! We’ve gotten some submissions where you experienced the culture and Lifestyle of a different country. We enjoyed reading about how you tried out different things (and even attires) during your trip.


Nothing can beat the essence of live Entertainment that’s set in a natural environment. One of our contestants blogged about how she revisited Guilin just to be entertained by an evening performance that’s set in the largest natural theater in the world.


Your entries were also treated to bundles of  likes where you guys strived to obtain them through sharing them with your friends. Koolred would also like to thank those of you who took the time to vote for your favourite contest entries. Choosing the winners will be a difficult task so we truly appreciate your help in making the decision.

We hope you enjoyed taking part in the Koolred Blog & Win Contest. It’s been so much fun reading your entries and we thank everyone who participated. Without your support, we could not have made the contest a success. Kudos to Pullman Putrajaya Lakeside, Hotel Istana Kuala Lumpur, Melia Kuala Lumpur, Sompoton Spa, Songket Restaurant and Ecoparadise as well for their generous support as prize sponsors for this blog contest.

Keep an eye out for the winners to be announced here on 7 July 2011. Do keep on posting and sharing your awesome blog posts on Koolred with the world! Oh and don’t worry, this isn’t the last of contests by Koolred, so stay tuned.
