1. The Penang mufti and an ex-Selangor speaker have spoken out in support of the stall, which was called out for selling Nasi Kandar with pork.

DAP's Teng Chang Khim says the claim that the video promoting the dish may cause confusion for Muslims is illogical.

3. Meanwhile, mufti Wan Salim told Malaysiakini, he sees nothing wrong with the non-halal dish being sold, provided there is a clear notice for Muslims on the ingredients.

I hope Suresh’s business flourish with all the publicity he’s getting. The signboard is clear as day, “NON HALAL”. Nasi lemak & nasi kandar are MALAYSIAN terms, not exclusive for certain quarters. We have greater things to worry about. Come on, Malaysia!!

Please read the labels on all products before purchasing. The food served is clearly marked as non halal. There are some non Muslims who prefer pork in their nasi kandar, so how does that affect you as a Muslim ? They are not selling this to you. https://t.co/NLWFZMncxP

One wishes it was just a stupid viral news on the fringes.
But nope, they’ve started review bombing the restaurant, calling it “deception” and “provocative.”
The restaurant is non-halal as stated and it’s logo is a wild boar. pic.twitter.com/yjTfkJk7Pv
