"Unilever had applied that “the adverts falsely and by implication depict their product Omo as being grossly incapable of removing stains in one wash,” and thus sought to stop the adverts until the court determined the same.

Unilever is aggrieved by Procter & Gamble’s prime time TV adverts that promote Ariel as the best stain-removing detergent compared to other products."

Really?

Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.

Really?

1. High Court has just suspended airing of the advert not banned its airing indefinitely. Pending the hearing of the case.

2. Unilever have a good case IMHO. It's not 'other products' as you guys are putting it but 'sabuni inayotumika zaidi' =OMO!!

Laughing out loudly smile Applause d'oh! Sad Drool Liar Shame on you Pray

After using both products, I think the ad is an accurate depiction. But still, I'd have thought that this is matter that could have been arbitrated by some other entity, say, MSK. The high court is too busy with more important matters than marketing rivalry!
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Ariel is better.. Soo true though, that MSK or Consumer Protection Society of Kenya, not certain of exact name, would be good intermediaries. The High Court is too high!
