The COVID-19 pandemic has brought destructive effects on healthcare systems, the economy, and the livelihood and lives of people around the world. The impact on Malaysians has been no less devastating. In the second phase of the #KitaSapotKita campaign, Maxis has collaborated with 12 local artists including Faizal Tahir and Zee Avi to produce a brand new music video that would become the avenue for the public to actively support fellow Malaysians. The music video will help turn social shares into donations for those in need in these challenging times.
The “Make It Through” music video is about overcoming adversity together as a nation and inspiring optimism for tomorrow.
“Our hope at Maxis is to be able to rally Malaysians to action for a positive cause by simply sharing and listening to the song. We are grateful to the many parties who have been involved in the making of this campaign and video—all our talented artists, XENO Entertainment, Astro, and everyone who inspired us,” said Tai Kam Leong, head of branding and marketing, Maxis.
The music video will be released on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, and Joox. The more the video gets played and purchased, the higher the contribution to the cause. Astro TV and Astro Radio, the official media partners, will also be promoting the campaign across all Astro platforms. Maxis and the artists will also be amplifying the music video via their respective channels.
How you can support and pledge to the cause

Lyrics
VERSE
Dunia ini amanah kita
Anugerah Tuhan untuk semua
Selagi ada kudrat dan nyawa
Sumpah akan ku pertahan
Dunia tanpa rasa kecewa
Harapan kita setiap insan/Harapan untuk setiap manusia
Susah dan senang
Hidup bersama
Biar cara kita berbeza
CHORUS
We’ll carry each other, we’ll make it through the days
Lalui bersama, menjaga semua
Let’s all stick together, and everything will be okay
Esok masih ada, semua pasti lebih baik
Post-Chorus:
oooooo Kita Sapot Kita
oooooo Kita Sapot Kita
VERSE
A world without sadness
And a world without pain
We can change it together
We’ll see the beauty once again
Hang on a little longer
We’re all in this just the same
You know it will get better
We get stronger everyday
CHORUS
Bridge
Kita Sapot Kita
Walau berbeza
Rasa dan cara
Kita Sapot Kita
Susah senang hidupkan Bersama
