: McDonald’s Malaysia has withdrawn its RM6 million defamation suit against BDS Malaysia, as announced by the fast-food chain’s managing director, Datuk Amir Jaafar.
The decision, he stated, comes after a successful mediation process, during which BDS acknowledged that McDonald’s in Israel operates independently from McDonald’s Malaysia. Restating McDonald’s Malaysia’s stance as a 100% Muslim-owned business, he said: “Our hearts go out to the innocent victims in Gaza who are caught in the conflict. We firmly condemn all forms of violence and pray for an end to the war and continued peace.”
The legal dispute between McDonald’s Malaysia and BDS Malaysia began in December when the fast-food chain sued the organisation for RM6 million, alleging defamation over claims of support for Israel.
