Stripey…

February 8th, 2010
I like the Aircel campaign abt "Save Our Tiger". A really good initiative from some corporate giant.

Whatever their aims and aspirations from that advertisement might be. As they are at the end of the day, looking to promote their services. Any corporate giant will do that.

I also see a lot of people going red over the campaign. A few quotes from people. (read on Facebook)
"The campaign also shied away from addressing other issues that contribute towards the decline in the cats such as loss of habitat, man-animal conflict and depletion of prey base."
"
It's funny how so many people are suddenly joining the "Save Our Tigers" group and initiative by Aircel but other than that, doing absolutely nothing to really "Save the Tiger""

All I want to tell these people is, take a break!!

Be glad that somebody had the sense to put in money into such a campaign. They have tied up with WWF – India.

Did the common man know that there were only 1411 tiger from 40k left, over the turn of the century? Answer is "No"!!

Just because they do their bit and look for self profit in such campaigns is not wrong.

Can WWF or any organisation working in this field be in a position to finance such a campaign?

What is wrong? Why don't you guys look at the brighter side of the entire campaign.

Folks, stop cribbing. Somebody has taken a step forward, support them.
