  • KFC MALAYSIA CONTINUES PARTNERSHIP WITH JOHOR MOTORSPORT RACING (JMR)

    In its ongoing commitment to bolster Malaysian  sports and uplift local athletes, KFC remains steadfast in its efforts to enhance collaboration  with Johor Motorsports Racing (JMR) throughout the entirety of 2024. This enduring  partnership reflects KFC’s dedication to promoting and contributing to the growth of the sports  landscape in Malaysia, particularly within the dynamic realm of motorsports facilitated by  JMR..

    Motorsports, celebrated for its exhilarating thrills and technical finesse, has been a cherished  tradition among the Johor Royalty for generations. It originated with the late Sultan Ismail Ibni  Almarhum Sultan Ibrahim, who owned a Mercedes racer before they evolved into Mercedes  Benz. Each successive generation has proudly carried forward this legacy.

    Presently, the young Princes YAM Tunku Abdul Rahman Al-Haj Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, Tunku  Panglima Johor, and YAM Tunku Abu Bakar Al-Haj Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, Tunku Putera Johor,  are reigniting the family’s passion for racing.

    Currently participating in the Asian Le Mans Series and the SRO GT World Challenge series,  driving a Mercedes AMG GT3 powered by Triple Eight Racing, they compete in both the Asia  and Australia championship series.

    KFC Malaysia, a proudly Malaysian owned and operated brand which employs 86% Muslims,  has partnered with JMR to explore avenues for fostering further opportunities within the Johor  racing community and to extend this appeal nationwide and to further encourage all Malaysian  athletes to realise their dreams of becoming champions.

    To commemorate this partnership, KFC Malaysia organised an engagement with students  from public universities and vocational institutions across Johor. The students from Universiti  Teknologi Malaysia, Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia, and Kolej Vokasional Tanjung  Puteri were offered a unique opportunity to gain insights into the multifaceted world of  motorsports.

    During these interactive sessions, YAM Tunku Abdul Rahman Al-Haj Ibni Sultan Ibrahim,  Tunku Panglima Johor, and YAM Tunku Abu Bakar Al-Haj Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, Tunku Putera  Johor, shared their personal journeys and experiences, inspiring students to pursue their  passions within the motorsport realm. The students were then treated to an immersive  encounter with the princes’ race cars, the Mercedes AMG GT3, providing a firsthand look at  these high-performance vehicles on racing circuits worldwide.

    QSR Brands Chairman Tan Sri Jamaludin Ibrahim said during his speech “This partnership  symbolises not just a collaboration in motorsports but a commitment to the growth and well being of Malaysia,”.

    He added that KFC Malaysia is committed to supporting JMR in its endeavours and shared  that through such partnerships, the Malaysian flag will be proudly displayed on international  podiums.

    KFC Malaysia Head Chandrasagran Munusamy, expressed the brand’s pride in giving back  to another Malaysian brand and expressed excitement about working on this partnership to  grow the motorsports industry in Malaysia.

    “With the expertise of Johor Motorsport Racing and the on-ground experience of the esteemed  YAM Tunku Panglima Prince Jefri Ibrahim and YAM Tunku Putra Prince Abu Bakar, we hope  to foster a better understanding of the sport and ultimately propel more Malaysians onto the  international stage,” he said.

  • ADD HOPE MALAYSIA EXTENDS RM50,000 SUPPORT TO NATIONAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT AGENCY AMID FLOOD CRISIS

    In response to the devastating floods ravaging the east coast and Johor, Add Hope Malaysia is contributing RM50,000 to the National Disaster Management Agency  (NADMA) to support flood relief measures.

    The recurring annual occurrence of floods has severely impacted the lives of many Malaysians,  compelling Add Hope Malaysia to extend a helping hand to assist the affected communities. The  organisation is steadfast in its dedication to supporting those enduring this recurring ordeal, hoping  to make a difference in their lives.

    The pledged contribution to NADMA is specifically directed towards providing essential medical  supplies, ensuring a steady food supply, and offering basic necessities to those affected by the  calamity.

    Expressing deep concern over the plight of those affected, Head of KFC Malaysia Chandrasagran  Munusamy said, “It is heartbreaking to witness the distress of so many people, particularly young  children whose lives have been upended by these floods, especially as they prepare to embark on a  new school year.”

    “We sincerely hope that this small contribution from Add Hope will serve as support, providing some  relief and comfort to those enduring this challenging period,” he added.

    Add Hope Malaysia remains committed to supporting communities in need and vows to continue its  efforts to assist those affected by natural disasters across Malaysia.

  • IN SEPTEMBER, KFC MALAYSIA MAKES WAVES WITH EXCITING NEW OFFERINGS.

    By adding three new items to its menu, KFC Malaysia is cranking up the heat in September. The chicken brand’s return to seafood in its menu items, along with other surprises, makes this lineup particularly noteworthy.

    For chicken lovers, the Spicy BBQ Crunch will certainly be a game-changer. This finger-lickin’ good offering moves away from the sweet, tangy notes of a regular BBQ sauce and instead turns up the flavor meter with distinct smoky flavors and the subtle heat of chilies. The unique blend of flavors on KFC tender chicken delivers a flavor-packed plate, sure to turn heads and fill tummies.

    For a limited time only, KFC Malaysia is bringing back the taste of the sea with the all-new Zinger Surf ‘N’ Turf burger. This creation has both a Zinger fillet and a shrimp donut patty. Each bite includes a hearty helping of fresh, crisp lettuce and rich, creamy garlic mayo, all nestled between perfectly toasted sesame buns.

    A meal is never complete without a side dish, and the fried sweet potato fries are a perfect complement. These succulent sweet potatoes are ‘crisscut’ and topped with a dusting of icing sugar.

    Available as an add-on to the Wow Bucket combo or ala carte, these fries are a balance of sweet and savory.

    Additionally, the ongoing partnership between KFC, streetwear brand Pestle & Mortar Clothing, and

    local comic artist Ujang continues to grow. In addition to the existing range of merchandise launched during KFC Malaysia’s 50th Anniversary celebrations in July, the collection now has two new items. A reversible bucket hat and a limited edition 24k gold-plated zinc enamel pin

    Don’t miss out on these exciting offerings from KFC Malaysia, available for a limited time starting this September. Whether you’re craving the Surf and Turf Burger, the bold flavors of the Spicy BBQ Crunch, or the sweetness of the Frosted Sweet Potato Fries, KFC Malaysia has something in store for everyone.
