This morning, Mcdonald’s Malaysia held their business review for 2018. The large business growth of McDonald’s Malaysia also coincides with bigger commitments and growth to their corporate social responsibility. Azmir Jaafar, Managing Director of McDonald’s Malaysia shared their CSR initiatives and figures. McDonald’s Malaysia had 10,000 community engagements held in 2018 alone. Anugerah Guru Inspiration McDonald’s, which honours teachers who have gone beyond the call of duty in nurturing their students, saw 7,500 submissions this year compared to 3,000 in 2018. Another initiative close to McDonald’s heart is the Back-to-School programme which has benefitted 23,000 urban poor primary school children since 2017. This year’s edition aims to be the biggest, aiming to reach out to 30,000 school children all over Malaysia. McDonald’s Malaysia is committed to have more restaurants equipped with green features in order to achieve its target of reducing carbon emission in each restaurant by up to 30 percent.
