Time To Have Some Fun At The All New Xction Xtreme Park In Sunway Velocity Mall! 

Fans of NCT Dream in Malaysia have every reason to celebrate this April as Chenle (천러), one of the group&rsquo;s most beloved members, is making a highly anticipated return to Kuala Lumpur. This time, it&rsquo;s not just for music or fan signings&mdash;but for tea. Yes, tea. More specifically, CHAGEE tea.
From Casual Fan Moment to Tea Brand Phenomenon
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2e4a667677bf2142d42c664e2272561ee2618cc0cc7f504f475f14029e06f884" />
Back in May 2024, during a fan signing event in Malaysia, Chenle inadvertently became a key marketing force for CHAGEE, a premium tea brand that has rapidly grown in popularity across Southeast Asia. When a fan casually asked him about his favourite beverage, Chenle enthusiastically replied, &ldquo;Jasmine green milk tea!&rdquo;
That seemingly innocent remark created a ripple effect among fans, with many rushing to CHAGEE outlets to try the drink themselves. In the days and weeks that followed, CHAGEE reported a noticeable uptick in footfall and sales, all thanks to the unintentional but powerful endorsement from the K-pop idol.
Recognising the extraordinary impact of this viral moment, CHAGEE has now made things official by naming Chenle as a &ldquo;Friend of CHAGEE&rdquo;. This honorary title is not just symbolic&mdash;it comes with a dedicated signature drink and a nationwide promotional campaign.
Introducing the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ed392f6a77815bb2c1d7b8bf6bc67846a2a4724d80635515db6dbced725cf8ff" />
To celebrate this partnership, CHAGEE has released a brand-new beverage in Chenle&rsquo;s honour: the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea. A rich, roasted blend of Japanese hojicha tea and genmai (toasted brown rice), the drink brings together comforting warmth and nutty undertones&mdash;perfect for fans looking for something new while enjoying a flavour that pays tribute to Chenle&rsquo;s taste.
The launch of this signature drink marks a milestone not just for CHAGEE, but also for K-pop collaborations in Malaysia, reflecting how celebrity influence can transcend music and blend seamlessly into lifestyle brands.
CHAGEE Teases Special Guest&mdash;Fans Guess Correctly
Last week, CHAGEE sparked excitement online with cryptic social media posts hinting at a &ldquo;special guest&rdquo; making an appearance in Malaysia. It didn&rsquo;t take long for fans to piece together the clues and suspect that Chenle was the mystery figure in question.
Their instincts proved spot on. CHAGEE has now confirmed that Chenle will indeed be coming to Malaysia for an exclusive meet and greet event later this month. This announcement has since sent fans into a frenzy, eager for a chance to meet the idol face-to-face.
Scratch and Win: Your Chance to Meet Chenle
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/fac7d65f67ae6ffd8dc63e25dea9aff758a5aef25bd7cee76a13df39731e25a3" />
In conjunction with this upcoming event, CHAGEE has launched a &ldquo;Scratch and Win&rdquo; campaign to give fans the opportunity of a lifetime&mdash;a personal meeting with Chenle himself. The mechanics are simple yet exciting.
From 11th April 2025, customers who spend RM30 or more at selected CHAGEE outlets&mdash;either by walking in or using the CHAGEE mobile app&mdash;will receive a scratch card from the tearista at the counter. These cards offer various prizes, including vouchers for the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea, merchandise, and the grand prize: an exclusive meet and greet ticket with Chenle.
The campaign is available at selected participating outlets nationwide, with full terms and conditions available via CHAGEE&rsquo;s social media platforms.

📅 Date: Saturday, 26th April 2025 📍 Venue: Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Main Entrance 🕒 Time: To be announced on CHAGEE&rsquo;s social media channels
Fans lucky enough to win the exclusive passes will get to experience an intimate session with the NCT Dream star, who continues to be a fan favourite not just for his vocals, but also for his bright personality and loveable charm.
Stay Tuned and Sip On
With the countdown officially on, excitement continues to build among NCTzens and tea enthusiasts alike. CHAGEE is expected to reveal more surprises in the coming days leading up to the big event, so fans are strongly encouraged to follow their Instagram and Facebook pages closely.

Malaysia’s Leading F&B Trade Event Returns: MIFB 2025 To Drive Industry Innovation

What was meant to be a joyous getaway turned into a harrowing experience when several individuals fell violently ill after indulging in a lok lok feast at Genting Sempah, Pahang. The aftermath saw multiple guests suffering from severe food poisoning, with some requiring hospitalisation, leaving the group frustrated and deeply concerned.
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/joey.looyuenyee/posts/pfbid02ny1sP39nmS35ALA7Yuo2qtjR8sakMHEk3odqwdCEApK1ZoyR8sL9B4ojWqkvGJpDl">Facebook</a> user Joey Loo took to social media to recount the distressing incident. She and a group of 36 friends had rented villas for a three-day, two-night retreat near the Pahang-Selangor border. During their stay, they noticed a well-known lok lok (skewered food) truck serving guests at a neighbouring villa. Intrigued by the sight, they decided to book the same service for their celebration the following evening, paying RM2,000 for a meal meant for 40 people.
From Feast to Food Poisoning in Hours
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/467dd9f1c5a8682f833b70724fcbdc4b10dbc38da645834127dc544257f4b745" />
The meal commenced at 6 PM on 1st February, and the group eagerly tucked in, expecting a delightful dining experience. However, just four hours later, disaster struck. More than ten people in the group began suffering from extreme vomiting and diarrhoea&mdash;undeniable signs of food poisoning. As the night progressed, the severity of the symptoms escalated, and by morning, two members had to be rushed to the hospital for intravenous drips, while others sought treatment at nearby clinics.
The repercussions of the incident went beyond health issues. Several group members were forced to take sick leave from work, while children attending international schools had to miss classes. The financial burden from medical expenses, combined with lost productivity, only added to their distress.
A Struggle for Accountability
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/effbf1d15ebad2f72f5bd6f8ff975818377e4552c17348fdd0bf8648a50dc580" />
Determined to seek justice, Joey contacted the food truck company, requesting a full refund of RM2,000 and additional reimbursement of RM3,375 for medical expenses incurred by the group. However, her efforts were met with denial and deflection. The company refused to take responsibility, instead shifting the blame onto the driver, claiming that he had accepted the booking independently without official company authorisation.
Joey was not convinced by this explanation. She had personally witnessed the driver calling the company to confirm the booking before proceeding. Adding to her suspicions, she pointed out that the food truck that arrived for their event was different from the one they had initially seen at the neighbouring villa.
In a further attempt to absolve itself, the company suggested that the food poisoning might have resulted from something the group had consumed earlier in the day. However, Joey quickly dismissed this claim. She explained that the group had split into five separate clusters throughout the day, each eating different meals&mdash;with some even skipping lunch entirely&mdash;yet every single person who ate the lok lok that evening fell ill.
A Wider Food Safety Concern
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/89c285493ef0845c7ec9a90a8b0984dbdc2c914b9a2924b5f6503431f6feaa51" />
This incident sheds light on a concerning issue regarding food safety standards and hygiene practices among mobile food vendors. Joey voiced her apprehension, questioning how many more unsuspecting patrons might have suffered similar cases of food poisoning from the same vendor without realising the source.
&ldquo;If this particular lok lok truck had been operating at a pasar malam, how many more people would have gotten food poisoning? Would they also blame it on other food and let the matter go?&rdquo; she asked.
She did not hold back in criticising the company&rsquo;s handling of the situation, calling their response &ldquo;irresponsible&rdquo; and highlighting the gravity of food poisoning incidents.
&ldquo;Food poisoning is not something to take lightly. I am sharing this publicly to put pressure on the business because of their irresponsibility and lack of concern for hygiene. I can accept the financial loss, but what I want is empathy,&rdquo; she wrote.
The Need for Stricter Hygiene Regulations
This incident underscores the urgent need for stricter food safety regulations to safeguard public health. Food truck operators must be held to high hygiene standards in food handling, storage, and preparation to prevent such harmful occurrences.
Authorities should take proactive measures by increasing inspections and enforcing stricter penalties for food vendors found guilty of negligence. Incidents like this highlight the importance of holding businesses accountable to ensure that consumers are not left vulnerable to foodborne illnesses.
Until such measures are properly implemented, consumers must exercise caution when dining at mobile food vendors, particularly in high-traffic areas. Food safety should never be compromised, and businesses must prioritise hygiene and quality to prevent similar incidents from recurring.

RM2,000 Lok Lok Feast Turns Into Food Poisoning Nightmare At Genting Sempah

Chinese beverage and dessert chain Mixue has come under fire after a job advertisement at its Sri Sinar outlet in Segambut sparked accusations of racial discrimination.
The listing, which was seeking to hire service crew and a supervisor, explicitly stated that only Malay and Chinese candidates with experience were eligible to apply. The exclusion of other ethnic groups, particularly the Indian community, has led to widespread criticism online.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a30e7982c68d1b4c4ed48ab12b029af4aab84797a8ea7bd454cd272be76936db" />
Instagram user <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DG3NQG_yqc0">@mohaneyyy</a> drew attention to the issue by sharing a screenshot of the advertisement with a scathing caption:
"Is this how the world's largest F&amp;B chain operates? Mixue may have outgrown McDonald's and Starbucks, but their hiring practices suggest otherwise! So, Indians (and others) can be customers but not employees? Why are we being excluded from job opportunities like this? Everyone deserves an equal chance to work, regardless of their race. It&rsquo;s 2025, shouldn&rsquo;t we be moving towards inclusivity rather than discrimination?"
The post quickly went viral, prompting widespread debate on social media while being reposted on X (formally known as Twitter).
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
It&rsquo;s 2025, and top brands in Malaysia are still posting job ads that openly exclude certain races. Discrimination is real, and it hurts. When will companies learn that talent has no race? <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Malaysia?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Malaysia</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SayNoToRacism?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SayNoToRacism</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Mixue?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Mixue</a> <a href="https://t.co/YtJuTtuuEA">pic.twitter.com/YtJuTtuuEA</a>
&mdash; Javaid Lucian (@Rameshhh15) <a href="https://twitter.com/Rameshhh15/status/1897817248070554075?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 7, 2025</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Many users condemned the listing, arguing that racial hiring preferences have no place in a modern job market&mdash;especially from a global brand that has recently risen to become the world&rsquo;s largest food and beverage chain in terms of store count.
Calls for accountability flooded the comments section, with users tagging key business leaders and urging Mixue to clarify its stance on diversity and equal employment opportunities.
Debate Over Hiring Policies
While many criticised Mixue for the job advertisement, some defended the brand, stating that their local Mixue outlets employ staff from various racial backgrounds, including Indians. Others speculated that the wording on the advertisement may have referred to language proficiency rather than race, or that the restriction was an independent decision made by the branch manager rather than an official company-wide policy.

This is so outright disgusting! Malay &amp; Chinese ONLY means NO Indians. Mixue should not be allowed to get away with such overt discrimination in their hiring.

A few netizens also pointed out that the job listing has since been taken down. However, as of now, Mixue has not issued a public statement addressing the controversy.
Mixue&rsquo;s Rapid Global Expansion
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/dd982b38a0673bd3c6f613b70e44eaa558d8cab8e432288ffc5f9e89b5c794e1" />
This scandal comes at a time when Mixue is making headlines for its massive global growth. According to a report by the British news outlet Daily Mail, Mixue now boasts over 45,000 outlets worldwide, surpassing McDonald's (42,000 outlets) and Starbucks (40,000 outlets).
The chain, known for its budget-friendly ice cream and bubble tea, has gained immense popularity, especially in Asia. However, its rapid expansion has also brought increased scrutiny, with critics arguing that a brand of its stature should uphold higher ethical standards, particularly in employment practices.
Religious and Racial Sensitivities in Malaysia
The controversy surrounding Mixue unfolds amid rising concerns over racial and religious tensions in Malaysia.

Recently, a trio of DJs from the local radio station Era FM faced public outrage after allegedly mocking the Hindu kavadi dance in a social media video. While the DJs issued a public apology, the backlash continued, with some insisting their actions were culturally insensitive. A legal expert, however, defended them, arguing that the dance they performed was not the kavadi dance but rather an imitation of Muay Thai athlete Miki Ghazali&rsquo;s ring entrance.
In another case, prominent Malaysian stand-up comedian <a href="https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2025/03/05/harith-iskandar-another-facebook-user-to-get-rm10000-fine-each-over-ham-joke-as-mcmc-waits-for-meta-to-close-their-social-media-accounts/168720">Harith Iskander</a>, along with another Facebook user, was fined RM10,000 each over a joke involving a "ham and cheese sandwich," which was deemed offensive by certain Muslim groups. The incident reignited discussions on the limits of free speech and the increasing sensitivities surrounding religious topics in Malaysia.
Calls for Greater Inclusivity and Cultural Awareness
The Mixue hiring controversy, alongside these recent incidents, highlights the growing need for businesses, media personalities, and corporations to navigate racial and religious sensitivities with care. The backlash serves as a reminder of the importance of fostering inclusivity and ensuring that hiring policies and public statements reflect Malaysia&rsquo;s diverse and multicultural society.
As Mixue continues its expansion, public scrutiny remains high, with many expecting the company to address the issue transparently. Moving forward, companies operating in Malaysia may need to reassess their internal policies and ensure that workplace diversity and fair hiring practices are upheld to maintain public trust and avoid similar controversies.
Ultimately, the broader conversation on racial and religious harmony in Malaysia remains an ongoing challenge that requires sensitivity, awareness, and active steps toward a more inclusive society.

Popular F&B Outlet Mixue Faces Backlash Over Alleged Discriminatory Hiring Practices

As Hari Raya Aidilfitri approaches, Malaysians are eagerly preparing for celebrations by stocking up on kuih Raya, a staple for welcoming guests. However, this cherished tradition is set to become more expensive, as vendors warn of a sharp price increase due to escalating costs of raw materials, particularly coconut milk.
A recent survey at Pasar Kubang Pasu in Kelantan found that three to five pieces of kuih Raya are still being sold for RM2. However, this price, which has remained unchanged for the past four years, is expected to rise by as much as 25% after Aidilfitri. This means consumers may soon have to pay RM2.50 for the same quantity.
Coconut Milk Prices Behind the Increase
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8a1ef92b79cdac5e0f29d3fe6b2609d25328dc9ac3fb92fcea9819c615146599" />
One of the key factors driving up kuih prices is the rising cost of coconut milk, a crucial ingredient in many traditional Malaysian delicacies. Vendor Tarmizi Husin, who has been selling kuih for eight years, explained that coconut milk prices have surged from RM10 to RM16 per kilogram since December. Despite this, kuih vendors have been holding off on price hikes in an effort to keep their products affordable.
"We feel bad about increasing kuih prices, but we have no choice. If we stick to the old prices, we won&rsquo;t make any profit," he said.
Tarmizi also highlighted the unpredictable nature of kuih sales. "Some days, everything sells out, and on other days, it doesn&rsquo;t. If it doesn&rsquo;t sell, we are left with nothing but exhaustion," he added, expressing the challenges faced by small vendors.
Possible Further Price Hikes During Ramadan
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/aee7e9efb5c561e18932e776a98785a358afaab474da60d837d406708ec550e5" />
Unfortunately, the situation may worsen as coconut milk prices are expected to rise even further during Ramadan. Coconut milk vendor Muhammad Nor Akmal Jaafar stated that due to difficulties in sourcing fresh coconuts, prices could climb to RM20 per kilogram during the fasting month.
He explained that suppliers rely on coconuts imported from Indonesia, which cost between RM3.30 and RM3.40 per piece. However, transportation delays often result in some coconuts arriving rotten, increasing production costs and reducing supply.
"For now, I am selling coconut milk at RM13 per kilogram because I don&rsquo;t have the heart to charge more. But if coconut prices continue to rise, sellers might have to increase the price to RM20 per kilogram during Ramadan," he warned.
Uncertain Outlook for Kuih Prices
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/bc6fa0fe0e8bbf36ce9a0a300d59532c3851ae6d55ffa2ad7ecd772f8bc53245" />
While vendors are bracing for inevitable price adjustments, many remain hopeful that coconut prices will stabilise. If local coconut supplies are sufficient, the cost of coconut milk could remain steady, helping to prevent further hikes in the price of kuih Raya and other traditional treats.
For now, kuih lovers should be prepared to spend more on their festive favourites, as rising costs continue to impact local delicacies. Both vendors and consumers can only hope for a stabilisation of raw material prices to keep cherished traditions accessible to all.
With Ramadan approaching, many of us strive to be more mindful of our spending, especially with the temptation of festive food all around. However, the rising cost of goods has been an ongoing challenge, and this year is unlikely to be any different.
Let&rsquo;s hope for more stable prices in the future&mdash;or perhaps, just maybe, for the government to take stronger measures to ease the burden on consumers.
