trending: Malaysian netizens up in arms after Canadian ex-minister calls nasi lemak 'most delicious breakfast in S'pore'
Canada’s former Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Ms Catherine McKenna, seems to have ruffled a few feathers when she dubbed nasi lemak as the “most delicious breakfast in Singapore” online.
She posted an image of a plate of nasi lemak served with chicken cutlet and a side of sunny-side up egg, ikan bilis and crackers. The long-standing debate about the two country’s food was re-ignited, as Malaysian netizens took the chance to throw shade at the nasi lemak dish which was posted by Ms McKenna.
Sharing a photo of a plate of nasi lemak served with a roasted chicken thigh and bigger portions of rice, one netizen tweeted: “This is nasi lemak mate. Not whatever you’re having there.”Although nasi lemak can be found in several Southeast Asia countries and is not unique to just Malaysia, it has been reported by various publications as Malaysia's national dish.
