Kuala Lumpur, 5 October 2018 – More than 200 McDonald’s Malaysia office staff, franchisees, and business partners ‘turun padang’ today and worked alongside restaurant crew members to serve customers in an effort to get involved and to understand what it takes to deliver McDonald’s "feel-good moments".

Key business partners who also got on ground included Datuk Kamal bin Khalid, Group Managing Director of Media Prima Berhad and Datuk Ahmad Izham Omar, Chief Executive Officer of Primeworks Studios.

“I am extremely thrilled to join the McFamily today in preparing McDonald’s world-famous menu. This is a brand that has consistently pushed the boundaries to provide high quality and delicious food to its customers, all served with a smile,” said Datuk Kamal.

“Working alongside the crew today was an eye-opener to what goes on behind-the-scenes at McDonald’s restaurants. McDonald’s cares for its employees as much as its customers. The company is a household name known to always put its people first, and is a great place to build one’s career,” said Datuk Izham.
