A FAST-food restaurant chain has once again been recognised at the Sustainability and CSR Malaysia Awards, marking its eighth consecutive year as a recipient of the prestigious award.
This year, McDonald’s Malaysia took home two accolades – the Corporate Compassion Excellence Award and, for the second consecutive year, the Long-Standing Excellence Award.
The 10th edition of the Sustainability and CSR Malaysia Awards carried the theme “Beyond Profits, Making Our World a Better Place”.
The awards ceremony was attended by Deputy Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad.
Through its long-standing Program Komuniti @ McDonald’s, McDonald’s Malaysia undertakes over 10,000 community initiatives annually, reaching Malaysians from all walks of life.
These efforts span initiatives such as children’s welfare, educational support, food aid, festive contributions, and programmes supporting frontline workers, consistently reflecting the brand’s dedication to touching lives and strengthening communities.
McDonald’s Malaysia managing director and local operating partner Datuk Azmir Jaafar said, “We are deeply honoured to be recognised for the eighth consecutive year and especially proud to receive the Long-Standing Excellence Award for the second year running.
“These recognitions are a testament to our unwavering belief that doing good must always be at the heart of what we do.
“As a local operation, our responsibility extends far beyond serving meals – it is about making a genuine difference through consistent, meaningful community engagement.
“We remain committed to continuing this important work, standing with Malaysians, for Malaysians.”
The recognition received by McDonald’s Malaysia this year reflected its steadfast dedication to creating long-term positive change within the communities it serves – a commitment it upheld year after year, he added.
Also present at the event were CSR Malaysia chairman Datuk R. Rajendran, co-chairman and managing editor Lee Seng Chee, McDonald’s Malaysia corporate communications director Shamsidar Yahya and senior manager Wan Shariena Bahrom.
