If you visit http://www.fabfood1malaysia.com, you’ll find Nasi Lemak, Laksa, and Bak Kut Teh (cunningly renamed as Meat Bone Tea). As it is, the ministry is in hot soup over the “halal” bak kut teh term, as the Islamic scholars say it may lead the Muslims astray.
The minister, Ng Yen Yen had mentioned previously that more items would be added into the list. So, maybe there’s still hope for thosai, capati, idli, putu mayam, vadai, kesari, etc to be added. And how in the world can “roti canai” be left out? That’s like heresy!
Food is supposed to unite people, but not necessarily the case in our country, due to various religion and culture.
