Brands rise up to the "crispy rendang" challenge
05 Apr
Chicken rendang be crispy enough?
Zaleha Kadir Olpin’s elimination from Masterchef UK made international headlines after Malaysians caught wind of the fact that the judges Gregg Wallace called her chicken rendang not ‘crispy’ enough.
“The chicken skin isn’t crispy, it can’t be eaten,” said Gregg to Saleha, when she presented her nasi lemak and chicken rendang to the panel of judges. Of course, this led to much horror to every Malaysian.
And of course, brands couldn’t resist joining the “crispy rendang” marketing challenge.
1. Spade’s Burger
Everyone’s favourite burger joint, Spade’s Burger joined in the “crispy rendang” fun by introducing their new creation, the Crispy Rendang Chicken Burger.
2. Malaysia Airlines

3. Agrobank

4. Marrybrown
Marrybrown took a new take on “chicken rendang” by introducing their “non-rendang crispy chicken” much to everyone’s amusement. 5. Secret Recipe

Media specialists have diversified, but with more options comes the challenge of maintaining income growth. The industry is expanding, but revenue isn’t keeping pace.
Now, we’re at a TURNING POINT: time to explore and harness new sustainable revenue streams. While GroupM forecasts a 7.8% global ad revenue growth in 2024, challenges like antitrust regulation, AI and copyright issues, and platform bans persist.
Collaboration is key: partnerships that thrive on synergy, shared values, and aligned goals are becoming increasingly essential.
Hence, the Malaysian Media Conference, in its 20th year, has assembled the partners and players under one roof on October 25 for a day of learning, sharing, and exploring.
