Every year, MAGGI looks forward to the distribution of its nutritious and tasty MAGGI Bubur Lambuk, an enjoyable tradition for many Malaysians. To celebrate the Ramadan spirit of sharing and giving, MAGGI is expanding its Bubur Lambuk distribution this year to more than 200 locations across Peninsular and East Malaysia.

MAGGI is collaborating with Food Aid Foundation (FAF) and Malaysia Association for the Blind (MAB) to distribute over 120,000 bowls of nutritious MAGGI Bubur Lambuk to B40 families, orphanages, welfare homes and charitable organisations throughout the month of Ramadan. Through the collaboration with FAF and MAB, this year’s Bubur Lambuk distribution will also include the homeless communities, people with disabilities as well as healthcare workers and frontliners who remain devoted to their role in protecting the communities throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, Ms. Geetha Balakrishna, Business Executive Officer of MAGGI, Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad said, "Bubur Lambuk is a meal born of goodwill, true to the giving and caring spirit of Ramadan. Hence, this nutritious meal will definitely put a smile on the faces of those receiving it while fostering closer community ties when breaking fast together. Staying true to MAGGI’s brand promise, You and MAGGI Cook the Difference, we are committed to sharing solace and tasty homemade food to create warm moments that provide comfort to Malaysians during this meaningful period.

Doing good deeds and sharing of ‘Rezeki’ during the holy Ramadan month are synonymous with sharing wealth, blessings, livelihood and sustenance – like a bowl of MAGGI Bubur Lambuk – cooked with MAGGI CukupRasa and other fresh ingredients, freshly prepared and distributed excusively by MAGGI’s Chefs.
