McDonald’s has long been a favourite for Malaysian fast food lovers. However, there has been growing concern regarding the increasing prices at the fast-food outlets across the country.

Even Najib Razak echoed the same sentiment. In a recent post on his socials, the former prime minister highlighted the escalating prices of McDonald’s menu items, which according to him has increased by more than 50%!

Najib decided to compare the prices of some of the popular McDonald’s items from December 2017 versus now. As noted by the former PM, the prices of the meals have experienced substantial increment in recent years. For instance, the price of the all-time favourite McChicken burger has witnessed a 86% price hike, rising from RM5 to RM9.29. Even the McNuggets Happy Meal is now 68% more expensive, with the price jumping from RM6.80 to RM11.42.

“Have the prices gone down after the GST (Goods and Services Tax) was abolished? Where is  the ‘RM50 full trolley’ gang after GE14? Hopefully the Minister can keep track on why the prices of McDonald’s keep increasing every year because this is shocking,” Najib wrote in his post.

However, Najib’s post was met with mixed reactions from the netizens. Some argued that he should have compared the prices from before the introduction of the GST in 2011 to obtain a more accurate understanding of the situation. Another questioned him, “With the world currently entering the post-pandemic situation, do you believe that prices can remain the same as in 2017 if you are still in power?”

On the other hand, there were also a few supporters who praised Najib for speaking up on the matter.
