The American fast food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has been forced to close over 100 of its Malaysian outlets amid a month\u2019s long boycott campaign over US support for Israel\u2019s war on Gaza.<\/p>\n

According to Chinese media, QSR Brands, which owns the fast-food franchise, KFC, had to temporarily shutter 108 of its 600 outlets across Malaysia, most of them in the Muslim-majority Kelantan state.<\/p>\n

In a statement, QSR Brands cited \u201cchallenging economic conditions\u201d for the closures and that employees had been offered the opportunity to relocate to busier stores, saying that the company contributes \u201cpositively to the Malaysian economy through job security for 18,000 team members in Malaysia, of which, approximately 85 percent are Muslims.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement is a global, pro-Palestine movement promoting boycotts, divestment and economic sanctions against Israel.<\/p>\n

KFC is the latest American food franchise to be targeted by the national boycott movement in the Muslim-majority country over US support for Israel, amid its ongoing assault on Gaza. Starbucks, McDonalds and Zara have also been hit with massive losses after stores were boycotted.<\/p>\n

BOYCOTTS ARE WORKING!
\nWE MUST CONTINUE TO SHOW THESE CORPORATIONS THAT THEY CAN\u2019T SUPPORT GENOCIDE, APARTHEID, OPPRESSION AND THINK WE WILL TURN A BLIND EYE!
\nWE CAN ALL SUPPORT PALESTINE BY BOYCOTTING ALL BRANDS THAT SUPPORT THE ZIONIST IDEOLOGY THAT ISRAEL CURRENTLY EMBODIES!<\/p>\n
