Recognised and fondly adored by fans for the strong roles she carry in Hong Kong’s TVB dramas, it is no secret that Ms Lee is a true legend on and off screen. The notion of living healthy and caring for the family was the main draw behind Mitsubishi Ele
ctric’s collaboration with the talented seasoned actress.
“For us, we don’t just see the presence of a star. What we see and have deep respect for, is a humble, classy and strong lady who takes pride in putting others before her, just like the roles she commonly play on TV as the family matriarch.
For those who have not gotten it yet, Mitsubishi Electric is not your average home appliances brand. We are a name that is exceptionally reliable, healthy, wholesome and very much family-oriented in many aspects.
Sharing a common stance, Ms Lee is the perfect embodiment of such qualities. I can only express how pleased we are to have Ms Lee on board to represent Mitsubishi Electric,” said Mr Tadashi Hiraoka, Managing Director of Melco Sales Malaysia Sdn Bhd.
Throughout the course of her career, Ms Lee’s charisma and elegance has bagged many industry titles under her name. One of which is her recent award for Best Actress during TVB’s 40th Year Anniversary Extravaganza.
The brand is confident that Ms Lee’s involvement will spurand widen a greater appeal in the region, consequently helping to shape stronger brand awareness and brand preference.
Ms Lee will also be gracing Mitsubishi Electric’s advertising and promotion campaigns throughout the region, following a one year contract.
As a token of appreciation, both parties exchanged gifts to mark the momentous occasion. Mitsubishi Electric accepted a glistening crystal-glassed white cabbage from Ms Lee - which symbolised the crisp and fresh vegetables attained when stored inside Mitsubishi Electric’s refrigerators. Ms Lee, on the other hand, was presented with a beautiful gold-tainted art piece made from 100 percent pewter, which was extended as a sign of good wish to her health and soaring career.
In conjunction with Ms Lee’s appointment as the brand’s new ambassador, Mitsubishi Electric also took the opportunity to launch its latest top of the line refrigerator series – Folio.

It provides perfect balance in style and function, ultimately sealing the product as the most ideal refrigerator for healthy food storage, as well as
