I rarely eat McDonald's here at home, but whenever I travel abroad I absolutely 'must' stop by the local McDonald's just to see what it's like. My favorite so far has actually been the ones in London because they had Cadbury Flake McShakes. Yummy milkshakes with a piece of Flake bar stuck in it.

I love going to Mcdonald's in other countries. It's always interseting how they try to mix the their culture with the fast food culture. In the Philippines they server pancit and lumpia. Then there's SPAM in Hawaii. I need to leave the US more.

Are the Chinese inhabitants of Malaysia able to get pork for use in their own homes, or is Malaysia a pig-free zone?

You can get pork and they certainly serve it in Chinese restaurants. Its just that if they have it in the kitchen, they restaurant can't be certified Halal, so you sort of eliminate a big chunk of the population as a customer base. Probably isn't a good move for McDonald's.

its the local burgers.. a brandname. check out the road stalls that sells burgers :)

and yes, we do have pork though its not openly sold in all supermarkets. but we can buy them in the pork section in the wet markets & some supermarkets.
