  "account": "Last year, a group of four women from Sabah - Doris Ng, Noveny Viannie, Victoria Martin, and Lisa Lawrence - gathered to compete in the Women's 4x4 250kg Tug of War demonstration event at the SEA Games in Thailand. Despite tug of war being a demonstration event and not an official medal sport, their team, GeramBeat, emerged victorious, securing Malaysia's first gold medal in the competition. While the women's achievement remains largely unknown to many Malaysians, Wonda Kopi Tarik is bringing their story to the forefront with its \"Tarik Malaysians Together\" campaign. The campaign aims to spotlight the journey of the four women from Sabah to the wider Malaysian audience, celebrating their perseverance, discipline, trust, and the power of unity. The campaign will be featured through various platforms, including radio, digital, and social media, while also taking \"Tarik Malaysians Together\" to the streets on Malaysia Day. On September 16, Wonda Kopi Tarik will host interactive experiences at Keretapi Sarong 2026, where Malaysians can engage in activities, enjoy performances, and celebrate the spirit of unity that brought GeramBeat's success.",
