Parker ball pen was the 1st pen me and my siblings gave to our beloved daddy as Father's Day present. I still remembered my dad love that Parker pen very much. When I was in high school, I had received a Parker pen as my birthday pen and I name it as my "lucky pen" for exams. :)
Recently, I was invited to attend the Parker Ingenuity Launch @Suria KLCC.
During this launch, the invited media and guests were amongst the first to discover the next generation in pens with Ms. Odile Garcia, Senior Marketing Manager of Parker/Newell Rubbermaid. She came all the way from Hong Kong to launch the Parker’s newest release, the Ingenuity Collection with Parker 5th Technology.
