PETALING JAYA: Celebrity chef Datuk Redzuawan Ismail, who is better known as Chef Wan, said the proposed ruling that restaurants can only hire local cooks is "racist", saying that there were many Malaysians who were working in kitchens around the world.

"Food, like love, has no boundary. We have many Malaysian chefs across the world working in so many cities of the world doing the same thing," he said in a series of Instragram posts.
