M'sian woman apologises for only spending about S$303,000 on daughter's 11th birthday party

A Malaysian woman apologised after she admitted that she only spent 1 million ringgit (S$302,300) on her daughter's 11th birthday party.

Content creator and entrepreneur Farhana Zahra made the apology in a TikTok.

Her daughter had just turned 11.

@farhanazahra91 Selamat ulang tahun Yaya yang ke 11 tahun, besar da anak mama, semoga cita-cita untuk menjadi business women berjaya menjadi kenyataan 🥺 #farhanazahra91 #farhanazahra #cikna ♬ original sound - Farhana Zahra

In the TikTok, she wrote:

"Forgive mama, this is all I could afford to give you. I only spent 1 million ringgit for this birthday."

Extravagant gifts

Her daughter donned a shimmery long black dress with a sparkly crown and arrived at the party hand in hand with her mother in matching black.

At the party, she then gifted her daughter a Rolex watch, a pink iMac, and a Toyota vehicle that came with a car plate with her name: "Lydia Zahra."

Responses

The TikTok video sparked controversy for being tone-deaf and for humblebragging.

However, some said they would have done the same had they been in her shoes.
