KFC, the fast-food behemoth known for its crispy, juicy fried chicken, has been experiencing some recent difficulties.
The Colonel’s empire seemed crumbling, with over 100 stores temporarily shuttered across Malaysia due to tough economic conditions.
But whispers in the streets suggest that the closures might have more to do with the boycott movement following the escalation in the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Enter the Jimat Hari-Hari campaign, a finger-lickin’ fightback that’s got Malaysians rushing to their nearest KFC for a taste of the action.
With sets starting at a mere RM9.99, it’s a deal that’s hard to resist.
Savvy customers have quickly pointed out that the chicken seems bigger and better than ever, making it a real value for the money.
The campaign, which only applies to self-collect and in-store purchases, has been a welcome relief for Malaysians who have felt the economic downturn’s pinch.
The Colonel’s Call: Indulge Now!
While prices may vary depending on location, the promise of a finger-lickin’ good deal has been enough to attract customers.
KFC Malaysia has remained tight-lipped about the boycott allegations, but the Jimat Hari-Hari campaign speaks volumes.
It’s a bold move to win back the hearts (and stomachs) of Malaysians, and if the long lines and happy faces are anything to go by, it seems to be working.
