<p>Are you a bread connoisseur?</p>
<p>In Malaysia, we often enjoy traditional meals and snacks like nasi lemak, roti canai, and honeycomb cake (kek sarang semut). However, when we're pressed for time, many of us turn to bread, such as the wide range offered by Gardenia, from plain loaves to sweet, filled varieties.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://r2.myc.my/5023923ba415ca7fbf69c6434fcd750fc8cbd51ece886509960c7faa297e7f39" /></p>
<p>However, it's important to note that these breads can sometimes be too sweet for some tastes, and regular consumption might increase the risk of diabetes. But what if we told you there's a healthier and more satisfying alternative?</p>

[Video] Meet Tony, The Viral Sensation Taking Social Media By Storm

<p>The looming US ban on TikTok has sparked an unexpected cultural shift: a surge in Americans learning Mandarin. Duolingo, a popular language-learning app, has reported an astounding 216% growth in new Mandarin learners compared to the same period last year. This unprecedented spike coincides with growing anxiety over TikTok&rsquo;s future, as its parent company, ByteDance, faces a government-imposed deadline of 19 January 2025 to divest its US operations or face an outright ban.</p>
<p>The ban stems from national security concerns, with US officials citing fears that user data could be accessed by the Chinese Communist Party. As the deadline approaches, TikTok users are taking drastic steps to stay connected with the platform's culture and content&mdash;some even migrating to a similar Chinese social app called RedNote (known in China as Xiaohongshu).</p>
<p><strong>"Learning Mandarin Out of Spite?"</strong></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Learning Mandarin out of spite? You're not alone. <br /><br />We&rsquo;ve seen a ~216% growth in new Chinese (Mandarin) learners in the US compared to this time last year. <a href="https://t.co/9hzwBxfTgD">https://t.co/9hzwBxfTgD</a> <a href="https://t.co/qWM9f5oFYA">pic.twitter.com/qWM9f5oFYA</a></p>

<p><strong>
<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</strong></p>
<p>Duolingo's official X (formerly Twitter) account joined the conversation, posting: &ldquo;Oh, so NOW you&rsquo;re learning Mandarin.&rdquo; The app, which was the 18th most downloaded on Apple's US App Store last Thursday, has seen Mandarin outpace its traditionally popular offerings like Spanish, which saw just a 40% growth in the same period.</p>
<p>Other language-learning apps are also benefiting from the shift. Estonia-based Drops reported a threefold increase in users learning Mandarin, with a fivefold increase among US-based learners. Frederik Cordes, Drops&rsquo; general manager, attributes this surge to "external factors with strong contributions," referring to the impending TikTok ban.</p>
<p><strong>Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/4065/the-tiktok-exodus-how-rednote-is-becoming-the-new-digital-playground-for-us-users">The TikTok Exodus: How 'RedNote' Is Becoming The New Digital Playground For US Users</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>RedNote: A New Digital Frontier</strong></p>
<p>As TikTok's future hangs in the balance, RedNote is quickly emerging as a popular alternative. With over 700,000 new users reportedly joining the platform in just two days, the app&mdash;designed primarily in Mandarin&mdash;has become a destination for TikTok "refugees." The influx of US users has even prompted some Chinese RedNote users to start learning English, creating a unique cultural exchange.</p>
<p>Social media posts highlight this phenomenon, with videos of Americans sharing their initial attempts at Mandarin garnering significant attention. In one such video, a user points to their cat, saying in halting Mandarin, &ldquo;Hello, this is my cat. I am learning Mandarin. This is day one.&rdquo; Chinese users, in turn, have asked Americans for help with English homework, fostering unexpected moments of cross-cultural connection.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s of the interactions happening online:</p>

<p><strong>The Uncertain Road Ahead for TikTok</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/3e8aff720a42fc17ef0e3f0bd294cf1d4b48ea2d86a5c3699a38cce628968c0e" /></strong></p>
<p>TikTok&rsquo;s US operations remain in limbo. While ByteDance has reportedly explored selling its US arm to potential buyers like Elon Musk, such rumours have been dismissed as "pure fiction." The platform has appealed to the Supreme Court to delay the ban, but if no resolution is reached, users opening the app post-ban will be greeted with a pop-up redirecting them to a website explaining the situation.</p>
<p>US President Joe Biden could extend the deadline by 90 days if significant progress on a deal is made, though this remains uncertain. Former President Donald Trump, who initially championed the TikTok ban, recently expressed a more conciliatory stance, suggesting he might support keeping the app operational.</p>
<p><strong>A Cultural Shift in Progress</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/1f2dac2ea07607209af08864fae84464aa211f76a737c67666dcd5912cfb3e94" /></strong></p>
<p>This surge in language learning represents more than a simple act of defiance; it showcases a readiness to explore new platforms and connect across cultures, even amid geopolitical tensions. Whether TikTok weathers the ban or not, the wave of Americans learning Mandarin underscores the enduring power of digital communities and their ability to adapt and thrive.&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>Now, imagine a world where native English speakers increasingly embrace Mandarin. Such a shift could foster deeper understanding, bridging divides and creating opportunities for genuine unity between communities. Language barriers have long fuelled misunderstandings and prejudice, but this movement offers a hopeful glimpse into a future where cultural exchange paves the way for harmony and mutual respect. This might just be the start of something truly transformative.</em></span></p>

Duolingo Mandarin Learners Surge After ‘TikTok Refugees’ Move To RedNote

<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has postponed the scheduled cabinet vote on a ceasefire deal intended to halt the ongoing war in Gaza. The delay, which occurred just before a key meeting was set to take place on Thursday, has raised concerns about lingering disagreements that could potentially derail the hard-won truce. Netanyahu accused Hamas of trying to extract last-minute concessions before agreeing to the terms, which were finalised after months of mediation.</p>
<p><strong>US Confidence in Ceasefire Despite Setback </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/25aeb6f44837ca4d7169590cdc10bc992a929186a6ab3792fe386e9e00100a31" /></strong></p>
<p>Despite the delay, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed confidence that the ceasefire, which had been brokered by the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt, would still come into effect as planned on Sunday. Blinken acknowledged that there had been "loose ends" to address, but he reassured the public that these issues were being resolved and that the ceasefire would begin without further complications. "It's not surprising that in a process as challenging as this one, we&rsquo;re tying up that loose end," Blinken stated during a press conference in Washington.</p>
<p>Although the ceasefire was agreed upon in principle by Israeli negotiators, it requires formal approval by the Israeli security cabinet before it can be implemented. The U.S. remains optimistic that the deal will be ratified in the coming days despite the delays.</p>
<p><strong>Continued Strikes and Tensions in Gaza</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/3a2ce533c49b9031904a683539619406214bad80e1d8a9d6638485ab724a58b7" /></strong></p>
<p>As Israel and Hamas work through the final details of the agreement, fighting in Gaza has continued unabated. Following the announcement of the ceasefire deal on Wednesday, Israeli airstrikes intensified, killing at least 86 people, according to Palestinian health officials. These strikes, which have targeted several locations across Gaza, have added to the mounting death toll, with more than 46,000 Palestinians reported killed since the start of the conflict.</p>
<p>On the ground in Gaza, a mix of anger and disbelief has spread among civilians as they continue to face the devastating impact of the ongoing military operations. For some, the announcement of the ceasefire has brought little relief, as their homes and lives are shattered by the relentless bombing.</p>
<p><strong>Hamas' Conditions and the Disputed Prisoner List</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/24b1e07c8a33114492180958676a037fbec4f92ef01a90f13478e036ef08bb4d" /></strong></p>
<p>The main point of contention between Israel and Hamas lies in the list of Palestinian prisoners to be released as part of the deal. While Hamas has publicly committed to the ceasefire, it has attempted to add more of its members to the list of prisoners to be freed. Israeli negotiators have resisted these demands, particularly over the inclusion of individuals viewed by Israel as "symbols of terror."</p>
<p>The first phase of the ceasefire agreement, which is set to last for six weeks, will see the release of 33 hostages held by Hamas in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. In addition, Israeli forces are expected to pull back from densely populated areas of Gaza, and displaced Palestinians will be allowed to return home. Humanitarian aid will also flow into Gaza, with hundreds of trucks expected to deliver vital supplies.</p>
<p>The delay has also highlighted divisions within Israel&rsquo;s government. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, a hardline figure in Netanyahu&rsquo;s coalition, has threatened to resign if the ceasefire deal goes through. He labelled the agreement as "reckless" and argued that it would undo the achievements of Israel&rsquo;s military campaign. Despite this, a majority of Israeli ministers are expected to back the deal, and the cabinet is likely to vote on it by Friday or Saturday.</p>
<p>Further complicating the situation, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, another right-wing member of Netanyahu&rsquo;s government, has also voiced opposition to the deal. Smotrich is demanding conditions for his support, including a return to military action if Hamas retains control of Gaza after the ceasefire&rsquo;s first phase. These internal disagreements reflect the deeply entrenched ideological divisions within Israel&rsquo;s political landscape.</p>
<p><strong>International Mediation and the Path to Peace</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://r2.myc.my/446929863bf33416b5598cd096980c0d33ae5eb2e037b357fcfd4a5bc36ad52b" /></p>
<p>The ceasefire agreement, which was negotiated with the help of international mediators, represents a potential turning point in the conflict. If implemented successfully, it will mark the beginning of a phased approach to ending the violence and rebuilding Gaza. The first stage of the deal focuses on humanitarian aid, hostages, and the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces. Subsequent phases will address the complete return of hostages, the withdrawal of Israeli troops, and the long-term reconstruction of Gaza.</p>
<p>However, the road to lasting peace remains fraught with challenges. As negotiations continue, the international community watches closely, hoping that this ceasefire agreement can pave the way for a broader and more sustainable resolution to the ongoing conflict in Gaza.</p>
<p><strong>The Human Cost of War and the Call for Immediate Action</strong></p>
<p><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/07f4f23e04990782b733f0e90c0278f4f6969a13b01acb540538ac374faa7cfb" /></strong></p>
<p>The impact of the war on Gaza's civilian population has been devastating. Entire neighbourhoods have been destroyed, and the humanitarian crisis is worsening by the day. The ceasefire agreement offers a glimmer of hope for those in Gaza, but for many, the situation remains dire. Palestinian authorities and civilians continue to call for an immediate halt to the fighting, urging both sides to prioritise peace over politics and to implement the ceasefire without delay.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>As the conflict continues, the eyes of the world remain fixed on Gaza, where the toll of war continues to mount.</em></span></p>

The pressing question remains: Why wasn’t this resolution reached sooner, when so little is left for the Palestinians?

Palestine Ceasefire Deal Reached; Israel Delays Final Approval Amid Negotiations

<p>Legendary Taiwanese boy band ENERGY is set to deliver an unforgettable performance as part of their highly anticipated "Imminent (一触即发)" world tour! This April, the five-member group will make their way to Malaysia for a night of iconic hits and thrilling stage energy that fans won't want to miss.</p>
<p>Having announced their reunion after a 15-year hiatus, ENERGY has already wowed audiences with recent performances in Singapore. Now, the group will take centre stage at Kuala Lumpur's Axiata Arena on 5th April 2025 (Saturday).</p>
<p><strong>Who Is ENERGY?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/3162ac549d1261777be3057fe68087b5886d34f11b06d81e22db2bb2242be0e6" /></strong></p>
<p>Energy is a Taiwanese boy band that made its debut on July 12, 2002. The group consist of five members: leader Milk (Yeh Nai Wen), lead vocalist Edy (Hsiao Ching Hung), rapper and main dancer Toro (Kuo Wei Yun), vocalist and dancer KunDa (Hsieh Kun Da), and lead singer Shuwei (Chang Shu Wei). Energy quickly gained attention for their unique Rapcore sound, a blend of rap and rock elements that was relatively uncommon in the Mandopop scene at the time. Their energetic stage presence and intricate choreography drew comparisons to Korean boy bands, helping them stand out in the competitive music industry.</p>
<p>The group&rsquo;s discography features several iconic tracks that resonated with fans across Asia. Songs like "Let Go" (放手) and "Love Me for Another Day" (多爱我一天) became fan favourites, with the former showcasing their vibrant choreography and the latter highlighting their vocal harmonies. Another notable hit, "One Day" (某年某月某一天), became a popular ballad that demonstrated the group&rsquo;s versatility beyond high-energy performances. Albums such as <em>Energy! Come On!</em> and <em>Invincible</em> further solidified their place in the Mandopop industry, earning them a loyal fan base.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Lo-80c7Aw_E" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>Despite their success, the group faced significant challenges with lineup changes. Toro departed in 2003 to pursue other opportunities, and Milk left the group in 2005. While the departures marked a shift for Energy, the remaining members continued to produce music and perform, demonstrating their resilience and dedication to their fans. However, after years of activity, the group announced a hiatus in 2009, leaving fans uncertain about their future.</p>
<p>In January 2024, Energy surprised fans by reuniting with all five original members under B'in Music. This marked their highly anticipated return to the music scene after a 15-year hiatus. The reunion not only rekindled excitement among long-time fans but also introduced a new generation to their music.

Taiwanese Boy Band ENERGY Returns With A Live Concert In Kuala Lumpur This April 2025

<p>Since Nigel Ng&mdash;famously known as Uncle Roger&mdash;launched his restaurant, FUIYO! It&rsquo;s Uncle Roger, a lively debate has been brewing among food enthusiasts in Malaysia: who serves the ultimate fried rice? Is it Uncle Roger, the beloved, MSG-loving personality, or Uncle Soon, the iconic purveyor of affordable, mouth-watering fried rice who has been delighting customers since 1990? However, a note for our Muslim readers: Uncle Soon&rsquo;s fried rice is not halal, as it includes pork in its ingredients.</p>
<p>In an exciting twist for fried rice enthusiasts, the iconic Uncle Roger has finally crossed paths with the original legend in the fried rice game&mdash;Uncle Soon. The two culinary personalities went head-to-head in a light-hearted competition dubbed the &ldquo;Battle of the Uncles.&rdquo;</p>
<p><strong>Who&rsquo;s Uncle Roger and Uncle Soon?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/52fa386be6e48eb4886faa6c35474c8a1e493c93d3e57e6b2eec6a87d25df351" /></strong></p>
<p>Uncle Roger, portrayed by Malaysian comedian Nigel Ng, is a beloved online persona known for his comedic food reviews and commentary, particularly on Asian cuisine. Rising to fame in 2020 with his viral critique of a BBC host's egg-fried rice recipe, Uncle Roger combines humour, exaggerated Asian stereotypes, and culinary insights to entertain a global audience. With his signature orange polo shirt, relatable humour, and witty catchphrases like &ldquo;Haiyaa&rdquo; and &ldquo;Fuiyoh,&rdquo; he has amassed millions of followers across YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Nigel Ng's Uncle Roger character has since become a cultural icon, making appearances in stand-up specials and collaborations with renowned chefs like Gordon Ramsay.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Uncle Soon Fried Rice is a renowned hawker stall in Subang Jaya, Selangor, celebrated for its flavourful, wok hei-infused fried rice. Established in 1990 by a couple in Alor Setar, the business relocated to Selangor in 2007. Their daughter, Shian, took over operations after completing her SPM in 2013, continuing the family legacy.</p>
<p>The stall's signature dish features fried rice with char siew (barbecued pork) or prawns, topped with a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg and accompanied by a side of spicy sambal belacan. This combination has garnered a loyal following, particularly among university students in the area.</p>
<p>Over the years, Uncle Soon Fried Rice has expanded its presence, opening additional outlets near educational institutions to cater to its student clientele. Notably, branches have been established near Taylor's University and Sunway University. The business has also embraced innovation by exploring the use of vending machines to serve their fried rice, aiming to provide quick and convenient meals for customers with limited time. Despite its growth, Uncle Soon Fried Rice maintains its commitment to quality and tradition, ensuring each plate delivers the authentic taste that has made it a staple in Subang's culinary scene.</p>

</strong></p>
<p><strong>Round 1: Arm Wrestling Showdown</strong></p>
<p>The first challenge set the stage with a classic arm-wrestling match. Uncle Soon, despite his reputation in the kitchen, couldn&rsquo;t outmuscle Uncle Roger and lost the initial bout. Undeterred, he suggested a rematch&mdash;but with a twist. This time, they&rsquo;d wrestle using their wok-tossing hands (their left hands).</p>
<p>In a true display of wok-hand dominance, Uncle Soon easily claimed victory in this second round, proving that his frying prowess extends beyond the kitchen.</p>
<p><strong>Round 2: Fried Rice Flavour Test</strong></p>
<p>The second challenge focused on the real test: flavour. Both uncles presented their signature fried rice dishes to a taste-tester, eagerly awaiting the verdict. However, the taster opted for a diplomatic response, declaring that neither dish could beat his own mother&rsquo;s fried rice.</p>
<p>The ambiguous outcome left fans wondering which uncle truly reigns supreme in the fried rice arena.</p>
<p><strong>A Taste of Mutual Respect</strong></p>
<p>Perhaps seeking a definitive answer, Uncle Roger and Uncle Soon decided to sample each other&rsquo;s fried rice. In a show of camaraderie, both uncles were polite and praised the other&rsquo;s culinary skills.</p>
<p>Ever the comedian, Uncle Roger cheekily remarked that Uncle Soon should raise his prices, given the high quality of his food. Upon learning that Uncle Soon charges just RM13 per plate, Uncle Roger even suggested he open a premium outlet called &ldquo;Uncle Soon Plus.&rdquo; Playfully joining in, Uncle Soon quipped that his next venture could be an upgraded restaurant at the prestigious Suria KLCC.</p>
<p><strong>Fans React to the Battle</strong></p>
<p>Netizens couldn&rsquo;t get enough of the friendly banter between the two uncles. Many expressed surprise at Uncle Soon&rsquo;s youthful appearance, expecting an older man in a white singlet frying rice. Some speculated that the person seen in the video might not be Uncle Soon himself but possibly his daughter&rsquo;s partner.</p>
<p>Viewers also applauded the collaboration, appreciating how Uncle Roger was willing to engage with his so-called &ldquo;rival&rdquo; to promote mutual respect and support in the food business.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:</p>
<p><img src="https://r2.myc.my/48aced3fc5fcb47ae0ba5a01cf71b83c2ca2e76557e9de5c9b07f2198ac71ade" /></p>
<p><strong>A Wholesome Moment for the Fried Rice Community</strong></p>
<p>The &ldquo;Battle of the Uncles&rdquo; was more than just a contest&mdash;it was a celebration of two culinary icons coming together to entertain their fans and share their love for fried rice. The friendly rivalry, combined with moments of genuine support, struck a chord with viewers and highlighted the joy of camaraderie in the competitive food industry.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>So, who truly holds the crown in the fried rice arena? Perhaps it&rsquo;s a question best left unanswered. After all, it&rsquo;s not about the competition&mdash;it&rsquo;s the shared love of fried rice, and food in general, that unites us all.</em></span></p>

Celebrate This Chinese New Year With “Malaysia’s First” Yee Sang Ice Cream By Inside Scoop!

<p>In a tropical country like Malaysia, it&rsquo;s no surprise that cold treats are a favourite indulgence. And now, there&rsquo;s some delicious news to celebrate: the internationally renowned ice cream brand Dairy Queen is making its long-awaited return! Famous for its signature Blizzard desserts&mdash;so thick they can be flipped upside down without spilling&mdash;Dairy Queen once had a presence in Malaysia but reportedly shut its doors over a decade ago.</p>
<p>While the exact reason for its departure remains unclear, one thing is certain: Malaysians have sorely missed this iconic ice cream chain. Despite its absence here, Dairy Queen has remained a hit in neighbouring Southeast Asian countries like Indonesia and Thailand. Its ongoing popularity, paired with the fact that its desserts are often more affordable abroad, has kept Malaysian fans yearning for its return. Thankfully, the wait is nearly over. Dairy Queen is set to reopen its first Malaysian outlet at Sunshine Central in Penang!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://r2.myc.my/2bfe06dbb30a2f3cf8c4f87259eb90229e4e0aaef45f914b96dd5a4647409137" /></p>
<p>The announcement gained traction after a Facebook post by user "I Love To Eat 我就是愛吃喝玩樂" showcased a photo of the "coming soon" Dairy Queen signboard. The post sparked a wave of excitement among netizens, with many warmly welcoming the brand back. Fans are hopeful that this time, Dairy Queen will establish a lasting presence in Malaysia and expand across the nation, particularly to the Klang Valley, where demand is expected to be high.</p>
<p><strong>What Is Dairy Queen?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/b3b9392f08a18e6f2b7595c21311d2d317a1e3935ef0fb6f8181e3a829c1f1be" /></strong></p>
<p>Dairy Queen (DQ) is a popular American chain of soft-serve ice cream and fast-food restaurants, known for its iconic Blizzard treats and family-friendly menu. Founded in 1940 in Joliet, Illinois, by Sherb Noble, Dairy Queen began as a small store selling soft-serve ice cream, a product developed by co-founder John Fremont McCullough and his son Bradley. Their unique soft-serve formula became an instant success, leading to the rapid expansion of the brand.</p>
<p>Over the decades, Dairy Queen evolved from an ice cream-focused shop to a full-service restaurant offering burgers, fries, and other fast-food items alongside its signature desserts. Notable menu items include the Blizzard, introduced in 1985, which allows customers to mix soft-serve ice cream with candy, cookies, or fruit. The Blizzard quickly became a cultural phenomenon and remains one of DQ&rsquo;s most beloved products.</p>
<p>Today, Dairy Queen operates thousands of locations worldwide, from North America to Asia and the Middle East, making it one of the most recognizable names in the fast-food and dessert industry. Owned by Berkshire Hathaway since 1998, DQ continues to innovate while staying true to its roots as a place for indulgent treats and family enjoyment.</p>
<p><strong>Excitement and Criticism</strong></p>
<p>In another post shared by Instagram account @penangfoodie, local fans expressed their anticipation for Dairy Queen&rsquo;s reopening. While many are eager to visit Sunshine Central in Penang to enjoy their favourite treats, others criticized the choice of location, saying it&rsquo;s less accessible for those outside the region.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:</p>
<p><img src="https://r2.myc.my/e287b62ca290f21922141ab5e2a61728f6a274ce138aafd8312852306fb9da45" /></p>
<p>For now, no official opening date has been announced, but the buzz surrounding Dairy Queen&rsquo;s return is undeniable. Keep an eye out for updates, and prepare to indulge in the rich, creamy goodness of their desserts once they open!</p>

Dairy Queen Is Making A Sweet Comeback In Malaysia With A New Outlet Opening In Penang

<p>Over the past two months, social media has been abuzz with news about local comedian Nigel Ng, better known by his stage persona Uncle Roger, as he made his foray into the restaurant scene with the launch of his FUIYOH! It&rsquo;s Uncle Roger's eatery.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The excitement shows no signs of slowing down, and the comedian appears to be thriving in his culinary venture, with outlets already established in Pavilion Elite KL, MyTOWN, and IPC Mall. Looking ahead, he aims to expand his chain to 15&ndash;20 locations across Malaysia by 2025.&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://r2.myc.my/960b4d4079fa1320dfc94ea0b3e3ba642d19015330e10f353353676f24dc9a1a" /></p>
<p>Recently, Uncle Roger grabbed headlines once again after roasting Mr. D.I.Y. and introducing an RM2 lower price at his newly opened MyTOWN outlet, alongside offering larger portions. He explained the pricing adjustment by pointing out the differences in audience demographics&mdash;Pavilion caters to high-end stores like Gucci and Louis Vuitton, while MyTOWN offers more accessible shopping options for the general public.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Now it&rsquo;s RM16, no matter what outlet you at&mdash;MyTown, IPC, Pavilion, all 16 Ringgit. Yes, now all fry rice 16 Ringgit,&rdquo; he shared in the video, encouraging everyone to try his special fried rice.</p>
<p>The announcement follows earlier pricing variations between outlets, where the fried rice at Pavilion was priced at RM18, while the MyTOWN branch offered it at RM16 with a larger portion. With the new pricing structure, all outlets now serve the dish at a consistent and affordable RM16, providing uniformity and accessibility for all customers.</p>
<p><strong>Niece And Nephews Still Think His Prices Are Too Expensive</strong></p>
<p>The announcement of the lower price sparked mixed reactions from netizens in the comments. Many praised the move for its transparency and for ensuring a consistent dining experience across all outlets, regardless of location. However, some felt that RM16 for a plate of fried rice was still on the pricey side, especially given the rising cost of living in the city centre due to inflation.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Others suggested that instead of reducing the price, increasing the portion size would make the meal feel more worth the money.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:</p>

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>By focusing on affordability, it seems more Malaysians can now visit the restaurant to enjoy some delicious fried rice. While the dish has won praise from many, including netizens and even popular streamer IShowSpeed, there have been instances where the overall experience of getting the fried rice wasn&rsquo;t entirely smooth for some customers.</em></span></p>

Uncle Roger Standardises Pricing For His Fried Rice Across All Outlets 

<p>Malaysian comedian and content creator Nigel Ng, famously known as Uncle Roger, has ventured beyond comedy into the culinary scene. His restaurant chain, <em>FUIYOH! It&rsquo;s Uncle Roger</em>, has been making waves across Malaysia, blending humour and hearty food into a recipe for success.</p>
<p>After opening his first outlet at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Uncle Roger quickly launched two additional branches: one at MyTOWN Shopping Centre and another at IPC Shopping Centre. However, his pricing strategy for these new outlets has become the centre of conversation.</p>

<p><strong>Price Matters: Pavilion&rsquo;s Luxury vs. MyTOWN&rsquo;s Practicality</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img src="https://r2.myc.my/c0ac1ce2a62b0d8fc2caded55880a7bc07d20c474fa51313e946ea6aaa2dfd8b" /></strong></p>
<p>The Pavilion KL branch, located in one of Malaysia&rsquo;s most high-end malls featuring luxury stores like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Herm&egrave;s, initially faced criticism for its premium pricing. A signature fried rice dish was priced at RM18, a point of contention for many visitors.</p>
<p>In response to feedback, Uncle Roger introduced a pricing adjustment at the MyTOWN branch. The same fried rice dish now costs RM16&mdash;a RM2 reduction&mdash;while offering a larger portion. Explaining this decision, Uncle Roger, in true comedic fashion, joked about the malls&rsquo; contrasting vibes: &ldquo;Pavilion is fancy, got Gucci and Louis Vuitton. MyTOWN got Mr. D.I.Y., so price cannot be too high.&rdquo; His light-hearted remarks resonated with audiences, though they also sparked mixed reactions online.</p>

<p>Some netizens praised Uncle Roger&rsquo;s awareness of his market, while others joked that the RM2 discount felt underwhelming. A few were even surprised to hear the comedian speaking Malay in his promotional TikTok video, as it was a first for many.</p>
<p><strong>The Public&rsquo;s Take: Humour, Roasts, and Big Portions</strong></p>
<p>The MyTOWN branch&rsquo;s opening day, held on December 15th, saw an impressive crowd. Customers lined up eagerly to try Uncle Roger&rsquo;s signature dishes, proving that his popularity as a content creator has successfully translated into the food business.</p>
<p>Adding to the appeal, Uncle Roger emphasized the portion sizes at MyTOWN: &ldquo;We&rsquo;re serving more rice because Malaysians love their rice. Bigger portions mean happier customers.&rdquo; This strategic adjustment aimed to attract a broader crowd while addressing feedback about value for money.</p>
<p>His humorous roast of MyTOWN&rsquo;s retail stores&mdash;mentioning Mr. D.I.Y., Focus Point, and F.O.S.&mdash;added a personal touch to the announcement, further highlighting his comedic personality in a business setting.</p>
<p><strong>Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:</strong></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Future Plans: Fried Rice for All Malaysians?</strong></p>
<p>Nigel Ng has ambitious plans to expand his restaurant chain further, with the goal of opening 15 to 20 outlets across Malaysia by 2025. While it remains uncertain whether pricing will differ across future locations, Uncle Roger&rsquo;s willingness to adapt and experiment with pricing strategies has kept the conversation going.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>Whether or not this approach proves sustainable remains to be seen, but for now, Uncle Roger&rsquo;s blend of comedy, business acumen, and generous portions appears to be a winning combination. Malaysians are undoubtedly watching&mdash;and eating&mdash;to see where he takes FUIYOH! It&rsquo;s Uncle Roger next.</em></span></p>

Cheaper prices, bigger portions, and a cheeky roast towards Mr. D.I.Y. to spice things up.
