The BDS Malaysia movement exists to provide information on which brands have contributed to human rights violations. One of the brands listed was McDonald's which has led many to boycott them, especially after the Israeli branch provided free meals to the Israeli army during their attack on the people of Gaza.
McDonald's Malaysia has since released multiple statements to deny that they had anything to do with the genocide of Palestinians and even shared their plans to file a defamation lawsuit against BDS Malaysia. Many, of course, were not happy with this move but apparently, something good has come out of this lawsuit.
In a press statement released by BDS Malaysia yesterday , the movement said that there will be a mediation session with McDonald's Malaysia later the 18th of March at the Shah Alam Court. They also took the opportunity to thank the brand for suing them.
The NGO mentioned that the lawsuit has caused International BDS movements to start a particular global campaign to boycott McDonald's. They ended their statement by encouraging Malaysians to attend the upcoming court session to show support for the boycott campaign against Israel and every company that is directly or indirectly complicit to the state's atrocities.
