Robert's Google+


Police report has been lodged due to the a perceived remarks as racist and insulting faith of religion




This video has been uploaded few months ago but recently surfaced on social media due to a perceived inappropriate statements made. Local news portal has been writing for this topic but seem to have avoiding to show the actual and full length video. There is a 2 hours preacher speech attend by Muslim only.

 In the video, preacher touched variety of topics before the alleged remarks. Tune in to 1 hour and 1 minute or 1:01:50. The alleged topic content are related to curry powder carrying the brands of Alagappa & Babas. He said that the big Hindu statue with the tongue rolled out were made to taste all the curry powders. It seem to be an illogical in religious texts and more like a joke on the appearance of the statue.

Throughout the video he had mentioned biggest and well known brands such as Pizza Hut, KFC, Pepsi, Colgate, Safi and curry powders. The purpose he mentioned big brand names is to strengthen up local brands opened up by local entrepreneurs. Besides, he preached about Muslim needed to be taught using right-handed instead of left-handed.

It is wise to mention that preacher taught many to wash the eggs before use for cooking, wear appropriate clothes to close certain parts body, no conventional loan, support Muslim brands.

It was unusual for a successful and big fast food restaurant like McDonald's Malaysia to make a comment on any issue. But in this particular matter, they needed to say something about it. This are the full unaltered original message published on their official Facebook page not long ago.

There were social media created in order to rally boycotting on McDonald Malaysia. More information at Boycotts McDonald Malaysia received thousand likes . Is this online rally get away easily and out of the sight of police attention ??

If freedom of speech practiced by democratic nations which including speaking freely towards any entities then it could mean something related to this online rally regarding McDonald's Malaysia. As long as it was peaceful rally, everyone have the right to voice up their concerns and ideas.

McDonald Malaysia and those boycott supporters are equally important in contributing free society that upholds freedom of people and peace.

Original version at this Facebook link please go to Original version in Malaysia language



Below is a copy of full message from management of Malaysia published on it social media July 25, 2014  (English Version)



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Accusation and call of boycott towards McDonald Malaysia is unreasonable. All kinds of allegation has been made associating conflict and tragedy humanitarian at Gaza. However, the real victim of these accusation were towards our friends, employees and families. They have been a subject of discrimination and other franchise outlets we tried hard to find a legitimate stream of income. We like to share some information in order to clear the gray area and would like to get your attention on us



32 years development and growing up with Malaysia.



McDonald is a source of income for more than 12,000 employees, most of them are Muslim.

A total of 67 restaurants we owned and handled by 27 local franchiser, 40 percents to 50 percents of them are Malay Muslim
.
Besides that, McDonald's has created business opportunity for more than 50 local manufacturers and they provide employments to 2,500 local residents.

Coming the year of 2020 McDonald's Malaysia will grow to 500 restaurant and it will provide nation another 11,500 employment opportunity to every Malaysian

It is obvious any act of boycott will bring negative consequences to the economy of Malaysa and the livelihood of Malaysian working with McDonald's


Royalty Payment is a legitimate right to run a business under the brand of McDonald's



Payment of royalty is a fundamental to most business with a international brand or local brand. It was not an exclusive for McDonald's only. Need to be inform that McDonald's paid corporate tax and service tax in millions every year to Malaysian government.

We like to stress that McDonald's is not channeling it revenue, profit or royalty from restaurants in a bid supporting any form of political campaigns or ongoing conflict in any nations in the world. No truth in these accusations.

A big chunk of business profit has been used for development to expand business and Malaysian economy. In 2014, estimated 185 million invested to open 22 new restaurants and refurbish 29 restaurants in Malaysia




EXTENDING HELPING HAND



Since establishment 30 years ago, McDonald's always keen and committed towards local community, volunteer and caring work is our main priority.


Semenjak penubuhan kami lebih tiga dekad dahulu, McDonald’s sentiasa prihatin dan komited terhadap komuniti setempat.  Kerja amal dan kebajikan adalah keutamaan kami.

Ronald McDonald's House Charities Malaysia has contributed more than 11 million to help more than 20,000 unfortunate children. They have been doing it for 24 years continuously. As for Prosperity Gives Back Campaign contributed more than RM900,000 to charitable house since the year 2011.

Moreover RMHC offering scholarship, caring room for special children, sponsoring clinical operation discordant lip and palate and handling RMHC house at University Kebangsaan Malaysia's medicine center.aimed for families with low income helping them to stay for free in temporary in the meantime their kids get medical attention


MCDONALD'S VIEW


We would stress that it is a McDonald Malaysia stance not to be involved and supporting any kinds of political acts, violence or suppression.

We ends with McDonald's Malaysia is sympathy towards innocent victims in any humanitarian tragedy.

Watching Hercules Movie in Malaysia 2014

Robert's Google+


Hercules turned out to be mercenary and working as a team despite what we knew about Hercules in the first movie in this year



Killing Lion, Boar, Wolf and water creature were one of my 12 labors. This is the best because it has thick skin like steel and my arrow is not able to penetrate the flesh.  




I think we can say this safely " another Hercules movie really ? " There were two Hercules movies in less than one year. Surprisingly, both movies have very identical synopsis. Dwayne Johnson acted as Hercules or his stage name " The Rock ", He is really good in this role. It a smart move by Hollywood dramatize the movie portraying Hercules as human as possible to fool audience that he actually can be defeated in this movie. This movie is about Betray, war, superhuman strength and muscles.


I could remembered how much Hercules wanted to know the result of the battle he wanted to know whether it holds any chance of victory. He repeatedly asked that prophet who could foresee his own death and future. I think Hercules is being not honest to himself all this time. Liken to many Hercules movie, Dwayne Johnson pretended half of the movie he was just an ordinary man, bleed like a mortal, wanted to have family and peace especially the human nature of greed. He likes gold that why he formed mercenary right ?


What is the point of watching this movie if the audience knew Hercules is going to kick every bad guy butt ? There were never a single moment I thought Hercules were going to win the war because how the writer and director wanted the audience to badly believe Hercules is going to lose every single battle in the movie. First match was the battle with this possessed dead man. Hercules was leading former business men and farmers to a war they largely do not have any experience and training. In the other hands, the bad guy were totally devastated when the chariot strategy killed every single bad guy who tried to penerate the defense. I thought the good guy is going to lose. Did you see the tattoos they all got on their body ?? It really scary ! 

It all about lies, propaganda and magnifying the strength of the army. The second battle disappointed me ( Not really ) I thought it would have been another bloody The Lord of the Ring fight scenes. But, It turned out was a easy one to fight because the centaur and magician were just simply not existence and only exist in fairy tale story. No one seem to get hurt badly because Hercules and his gang trained an army of true warrior.

There were few amazing scenes worth to be mentioned and few good part of the movie. First one will be the introduction of Hercules team. I believe there were 5 of them. One who could predict his death and future. His life must be very miserable to know his death is on it way. Second one who wield double sword and does not talk much the whole movie he only managed to speak " Hercules " then he died. Third one was the knife thrower who abandoned Hercules and his friends for golds. Fourth is Amazon sharpshooter who apparently too hot for that role I am expecting a little bit darker skin but anyways the movie needed sexy girl. Last one is the talkative storyteller who amplifies Hercules story.


The best part of the movie would be Hercules was chained under a dungeon. He was forced to witness the killing of innocent by wicked conqueror . Besides, Hercules get to know the truth about his family death. Betrayal by his own king who he had been very loyal to. Hercules fought the three dark-skinned wolf not from Harry Potter or Hell, it just normal, hungry, fierce wolves. The moment he shouted " I'm Hercules " thanked to the prophet effort stimulating him, he broke chains with his superhuman strength preventing the dead of a mother.

The deceiving part of the movie I must stressed that the trailer we have seen when Hercules fought Hydra, Lion and boar it were not worth to mention at all. The movie never elaborate much about those fights because it might be due to tight burden. CGI is a very expensive work. We went to the cinema and sit down thought it going to be the movie about Dwayne Johnson fought these three creatures. 

The story is so exaggerated this is my first time seeing Hercules was using a big wooden tree or branch as a weapon of choice. Although he had been showing to us he was good in archery or swordplay but he prefer holding a big tree on his hand like an uncivilized man. He did said something like dislike civilization !

Is just me thinking or that this ending is very familiar ?? The Rock movie " The Scorpian King " has this ending too. He is the good guy and be praised by masses.
