Baik...
Malaysia market has been under-appreciated with the KLCI only recording 2 positive returns (in 2017 and 2020) over the past 10 years. This is mainly due to foreign fund selling, inconsistent policy follow-through, along with external forces such as the US sticking to higher rates for a longer period and a sluggish recovery in China.
However, things have improved since the 2H of last year and this strong momentum persists into 2024, with KLCI registering +6.7% gains YTD as of Feb 2024, indicating signs of renewed optimism towards the Malaysia market. Despite the recent rally, we hold a positive view on Malaysia market over the medium to long term. $$$$$$$$$$$$

post pandemic , ramai yg kian susah...hanya mampu makan and masak kat rumah.. kawan mempunyai potensi tak terhingga bukan hanya di malaysia tapi global jugak.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$In 2022, according to the World Instant Noodles Association, humanity collectively bought a record 121 billion 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.

kian ramai makan kat rumah.../ frozen foods macam roti canai, capati, nasi lemak, dll dari KAWAN pasti melambung... beli sebelum terlambat
3 days ago
Kawan's products especially its roti canai, capati , dhal, etc should be marketed and distributed more aggressive globally.
In a viral Xiao Hong Shu (RED) post by @辣芷的美食日记, 2 Malaysian Indian men are seen flipping Roti Canai in Chongqing, China to the amusement of the people who pass by the stall. The best part is, the 2 Malaysian men interacted with the customers in the Mandarin language. One of the men had his smile on ALL the time, and he was happily flipping the bread while chatting with the customer.
Another man, who seemed a little camera-shy was busy grilling the bread right next to him.
