To date, McDonald\u2019s operates 22 restaurants across the state, employing a workforce of 800 local staff. Currently, there are 370 McDonald\u2019s restaurants nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled to be opening our latest restaurant in Sabah. We sincerely hope that this new outlet will strengthen our efforts to provide \u2018Delicious Feel-Good Moments\u2019 to our customers, further establishing McDonald\u2019s commitment as the preferred brand for the local community. As a locally operated company, we are committed to ensuring that our business positively contributes to the welfare, skills development, and economic well-being of the community,\u201d said Dato\u2019 Haji Azmir Jaafar, Managing Director and Local Operating Partner, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the event, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia also presented a business zakat contribution of RM100,000 for 2024 to the Sabah Islamic Religious Council (MUIS) to support underprivileged communities across the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia, through its charity of choice, Ronald McDonald House Charities Malaysia (RMHC Malaysia), donated 1,300 Back-to-School Packs to primary school children from underprivileged families in Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2017, the Back-to-School Pack initiative has benefitted over 6,000 children in Sabah. The program aims to ease the financial burden of low-income families while motivating students to embark on the new school year with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, RMHC Malaysia has established its fourth Ronald McDonald House at the Sabah Women and Children\u2019s Hospital (HWKKS), providing accommodation to nearly 100 underprivileged families since its opening last year. This facility is the first of its kind in Sabah and East Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, RMHC Malaysia will be extending a medical grant of RM100,000 to HWKKS to support medical treatments, equipment, and other essential needs for children in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith the opening of our new restaurant in Tuaran, we have a direct opportunity to engage with and uplift the local community. This aligns seamlessly with our core values, which focus on fostering well-being and creating a positive impact in society,\u201d added Dato\u2019 Haji Azmir Jaafar, who also serves as President of RMHC Malaysia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TUARAN: McDonald\u2019s Malaysia marked another significant milestone in its expansion across Sabah with the grand opening of its latest outlet, McDonald\u2019s Tuaran Town Drive-Thru restaurant.
