McDonald’s dan Israel. Sudah-sudahlah memboikot tu.. Bukan betol pun!
Februari 18, 2009
hurm… tu la jangan boikot membuta tuli… dengar khabar angin terusla nak boikot.. apa guna blajar tinggi2??? kaji dulu dalam2 lain kali, dapatkan kepastian pihak2 terlibat. jangan sampai pihak2 tertentu tu terpaksa buat kenyataan macam ni sebab bisnes diorg dah rosak.
mungkin McD yg memberi saluran kepada israel tu mungkin mcD US or negara barat tertentu saja, tapi sebab dah nama pun kabar angin, semua mcD pun kena..
pasni, tanya mcD Russia plak diorg sumbang kat israel ke x…i dun thk so.

Efenem never boycotted any US product tho

well of coz malaysia’s McD dont directly support israel by channeling any kind of money for them. but, some part of the profit made by Msia’s McD will go to McD’s headquarter (heh now sounds like FBI or CIA headquarter thingy pulak) in the US and that’s when the money will go to israel… i know its kinda unfair for us to boycott msia’s or maybe even russia’s McD when they clearly stated that they do not support the jews but still, just remember our 1 or 2 cents (or kopeek
) still go to israel no matter what. maybe 1 or 2 cents are worthless but still, it will add up later on up to one million cents.. (and how much is that in ringgit or ruble? u do the math lah). o well, afterall its all up to us whether wanna boycott or not. some say, it’s the thought (to boycott us products) that matters, not action but then, there’s another saying says’ action is louder than words’ so again do the math.. heck now no more war in gaza, so why bother boycotting rite?

oh btw, im not one of the kinds that blindly support diz kind of boycott..i study high-high so i do make sure bout the reliability of d info i got. heck i even protested when there were rumours to boycott our beloved auchan! there goes my halal chicken supplier!
so, let us all selectively boycott US products! man its hard to boycott them aite? haha!

ashan tak boleh boikot sebab situlah bekalan ayam halal yang paling best, gemuk dan memuaskan hati… barang-barang pn banyak, harga pon boleh tahan.. setiap bulan pergi dan beli barang rumah… pernah juga dgr hal nak boikot ashan tapi rasa mcm inappropriate…
And kita pon tak boikot McD russia kan kan? Sbb itu je tempat makan fast food yang boleh dimakan wpon harga dia mahal sikit bnding dulu…. kalau nak boikot pon sebab nak diet atau jaga wang.. hahahahha!!!!
Singgah sebentar selepas Internal Med (=
Ada kawan kata doa itu lebih baik daripada boikot2 ni because basically 80-90% barang-barang kita ada traces of US…
woohooooo~

that’s the point la.. kalo betul2 kita boikot semua, we ended up living like 20-30 years ago.. coz basically all of goods these days have lil amt of saham US in it.. no internet, hp, tv, basically ALL technology la.. n dun forget about medical technologies, dear young doctors…
and abt mcD – malaysia or anywhere, mmg kne pay royalties, fees, n licenses to McD corp that based in US. tp not 100% disalurkan ke israel rite? kalo bg sume bankrupt la McD corp…loL~ they need the money for other thgs oso; advertisement, maintainence, etc..let’s think dis way; duit yg kite spend kat mcD (or mana2 yg syarikat US la)adlh digunakan utk berbelanjaan lain2, bukan utk israel..
whatever, ppl said niat lbh penting..
p/s: ashan pun dah ada daging halal yg lbh murah dr masjid punya..boneless plak tu.. no way i will boikot ashan. (aku mmg xpernah boikot pun sbb boikot tu nampak childish dan uneducated..)

it’s okay if u don’t want to boycott it, as long as u’re doing something, right?
oh wait – you are doing something to help our brothers n sisters in Gaza, right? and please don’t tell me that “doa jelah yg mampu”, because i believe you’re stronger than that.
and one beautiful thing about doing deeds is, we will be rewarded by Him according to our effort, not the result (whether we succeed or not). One penny may be going to Israeli’s fund, or maybe not. But the effort of avoiding that possibility – will never be overlooked by Him. =)
Februari 19, 2009 at 10:30 pm
just to remind u, u can nvr avoid that possibility. even when u’re writing ur comment. ur computer, it’s OS, sofware n most of thgs – juz to list a few la, r all licensed in US,n paying tax to the US govt so the US can manange the state budget. n do u knoe that yearly, US budget for it’s defense budget is more than USD600billion?
try boycotting all of US-licensed product, not just selecting a few…baru thr’s no possibility ur penny will go to israel fund.
but impossible la kan?
n btw, if ones do sthg good; menderma utk palestine ka watever, he/she dun hv to tell the whole world bout it..the one u thought nvr do any deeds might actually hv done sth much better than u..but He knows. so, stop sounding like memboikot tu bagus sangat.

i know it’s impossible.
but that doesn’t stop me to do what i can do.
as i said earlier, He didn’t care much about the result. Whether possible or not. He won’t ask whether we succeed or not.
memboikot bukanlah bagus sangat. byk lagi benda yg lagi bagus dari memboikot. bukan setakat doa sahaja. persoalannya, adakah kita buat benda2 tu? If yes, then alhamdulillah, i rest my case! =)

[...] Coconotty brought up an interesting issue on boycotting. [...]

Hi,
I’m sorry to mess up your blog here with my two cents…but I don’t agree that it is impossible to not use any of Uncle Sam’s products. “Almost impossible” is the right term here since we have been depending on their products for so many years (even before I was born!).
Anyway love your blog and nice knowing all of you here…;-)
