When companies are targeted, there are more details to that.
Some groups may have reached out for donation or employment for a particular community. When not satisfied, they start a smear campaign using authorities and hence urge boycott.
This is a modus operandi, long employed by mostly religious groups.
It is an extortion.

Yes. In addition, unfortunately they got the brunt of the ill-feeling started with vernacular and bkt challenges. Kind of the last straw for the envious ones.

In the age of instant fame via social medias, some are oblivious to slander, defamation and ignorant of law. Some even exploit religion and race to gain instant support. Instant gratification comes with inherent risks too, just like going bald after consuming instant noodles.

Exactly. And now clearly the strongest message is mob rule rules!

There is a disparity in how the government handles legal matters related to online conduct. It suggests that while the government is quick to use vague legal provisions to target individuals for their social media comments, it is less proactive in addressing more serious offenses by groups that engage in threatening behavior and disclose private information.

This situation raises concerns about the impartiality of justice and the potential influence of public outcry or pressure on law enforcement actions. It implies that the enforcement of laws is not based solely on the severity of the offense or the principles of justice but can be swayed by external factors such as public attention or the vocal nature of certain groups.

In essence, the statement criticizes the government for its apparent prioritization of minor infractions over more significant breaches of privacy and safety, leading to a perception of selective enforcement and a lack of consistent application of the law.

If the entire (cooked) length of instant noodles sold around the world in a single year were laid out in a line, the resulting 6.2bn kilometre giga-noodle would stretch well beyond Pluto and into the depths of space. It is a fact as miserable as it is marvellous.

Instant noodles sit among the most potent weapons ever devised in the unending struggle against starvation: a product that towers, among processed foods, at the extreme value end of the cost-per-calorie scale and which its makers now proudly classify as a piece of “social infrastructure"

This ready-to-eat grub, pioneered in the late 1950s to feed a ruined Japan in the protracted aftermath of war, takes the prize for being cheap and fast, but delicious.

And yet, precisely because of those qualities, the rising demand for instant noodles can look a lot like a societal and economic red flag — a signal, especially in developed countries, that something has broken or is at least under severe strain. They are an index of the primacy of need over greed in straitened times.

On one hand, if you can suspend judgment on the health risks associated with high-salt, ultra-processed foods, as most instant noodles are, there is something to celebrate in the relentless en-noodlement of the global diet. Particularly so for two Japanese companies, Toyo Suisan and Nissin Foods (whose founder invented the product), which have significant positions in a global market that analysts estimate to be worth north of $54bn. 

In 2022, according to the World Instant Noodles Association, humanity collectively bought a record 121bn servings of instant noodles — some 17 per cent more than in 2018. In countries as diverse as Nigeria, Bangladesh and Turkey, the surge has been far more acute, with increases ranging from 53 per cent to 425 per cent. That represents instant noodles doing their thing: rising from the shelves to provide affordable and durable calories to inflation-hit masses.

What???? Let"s wait for the soon-to-be public listed 99Speedy Mart steps up to sue for damages. The gang and goons must pay a hefty compensation for their unforgivable error of staging a boycott in front of their outlets, jeopardizing the prospects of their sales and compromising their billion-dollar goodwill.

It is alarming! People are controlled by corporates. They spend more time in work place and less time with family. Bad diet and lifestyle. Busy enriching their employers instead of themselves. I showed middle finger to employers who demanded showing proof and using phone. I am not a slave.

Firdauswon's approach without addressing the mistakes directly with the shop manager in private for resolution. This juxtaposition implies that Firdauswon's actions are not constructive/noble but rather detrimental/ignoble, akin to setting fire to the business chain specifically and the whole community generally. This highlights the severity of the situation and the need for accountability whereby sandering involves damaging statements about someone and/or something.

The argument for legal action centers on holding Firdauswon and gang accountable for their actions, which have allegedly caused financial losses and goodwill deficit to KKakakamart.

Defamation occurs when someone’s words cause harm to another person’s reputation or livelihood. A statement must be presented as fact, not opinion, in order to be considered slander. The statement must be made to a third party.

Now, let's wait for repercussion. Every action has a reaction of the same magnitude - by Newton laws. Let the investigation to wrap up, and recommend KKakakamart's boss to consider suing that whistleblower, Firdauswon. Their actions of gaslighting, slandering, and tarnishing the company's reputation deserve accountability, including compensation for the financial losses incurred. Rather than addressing mistakes with the shop manager for resolution, Firdauswon's actions are like setting fire to the community #thephantommenace

Any mature and civilised society must stay united against vigilantes and their instigators:

Vigilante actions often escalate conflicts and violence instead of resolving them peacefully through legal channels. This can result in a cycle of retaliation, further destabilizing the social fabric and compromising public safety.

Instigators: On having the balls, courage and jantanness to surrender

The identifiers for instigators causing vigilanteism can include individuals or groups who:

1. Spread false or misleading information to incite anger or fear.
2. Encourage or participate in violent or retaliatory actions outside of legal channels.
3. Demonize certain communities or individuals, leading to a sense of injustice or persecution.
4. Exploit existing tensions or grievances for personal or political gain.
5. Disregard the rule of law and promote a "justice at any cost" mentality.
6. Use inflammatory rhetoric or propaganda to mobilize supporters towards vigilante actions.
7. Target specific individuals or groups as scapegoats for broader societal issues.
