Each character on the mural echoes relatable faces that Malaysians have and cherish in their lives, embodying the spirit of a diverse and colorful community represented with a twist on Domino’s popular menu favorites. To the left stands ‘Ban-Anna-Kaya’, inspired by Domino’s local creation of the Banana kaya dessert. With a penchant for the finer things, she splurges without hesitation and always opts for a la carte. Aloha Chin-Yen, the Domino’s deal hunter,was inspired by Aloha Chicken, a much-loved Domino’s Pizza. She has knack for sniffing out the best deals, she knows value when she sees it. Rounding out the group is Extrava-hamzah,a twist from another popular pizza, the Extravaganzza.

The mural perfectly captures the different customers that have all supported Domino’s journey in Malaysia,a journey deeply intertwined with the nation’s growth and unity.

Abang DOM, abbreviated as “Dependable, Ohsem on Motorbike”, is showcased in the mural, as a testament tothe opportunities that Domino’s Pizza offers to the Malaysians via employment and career opportunities, empowering them to scale to greater heights.

We understand and embrace our customers every step of the way and the mural is a visual representation of our love for Malaysians, to celebrate the strong unity that remains unshaken.”

“‘Piza Rakyat’ is more than the mural itself. Our pride extends via our collaboration the talented local artist, Cloakwork. What’s more, the mural art isn’t just confined to the wall, as Malaysians nationwide can now take a piece of the Merdeka and Hari Malaysia spirit home through our exclusive Domino’s x Cloakwork limited edition merchandise, available with the purchase of selected Fuyoh meal sets.
