BRAGGING RIGHTS.
- Abstract
The article discusses the plans of Malaysian tourism minister Ng Yen Yen who has promised to claim exclusive rights to some of the Malaysian dishes such as spicy soup noodle laska, chicken rice and coconut milk rice nasi lemak. It is stated that she plans to segregate some dishes as Malaysian just to make visitors aware of authentic Malaysian dishes. Food critics inform that there it is unfair to claim ownership on foods as it would not help in promoting tourism.
