ETALING JAYA: The vendor of convenience store chain KK Mart says it is considering legal action for negligence against its supplier in China following the discovery of socks bearing the word “Allah”.

Xin Jian Chang Sdn Bhd, a local company based in Johor, said it had contacted its supplier for an explanation, and that the supplier admitted the socks were included in stock purchased “by mistake”.

“We are currently seeking legal advice to explore possible legal action against the supplier for its negligence in fulfilling our order requirements,” Xin Jian Chang said in a statement.

It said a preliminary internal investigation found that the socks were part of a larger shipment of 18,800 pairs ordered from a company based in China’s Zhejiang province.

Controversy arose after photographs of the socks, sold at KK Mart’s Bandar Sunway store, appeared on social media last Wednesday.

On Saturday, KK Mart apologised and expressed regret over the incident.

Only interesting thing in this shitshow is to know why Zhejiang is producing them in the first place.

Issue latok Vida pakai fake halal logo apa citer?

Umgok dgn pas xde suruh dia tutup kedai 14 hari ke

It seems those UMNO people gonna push away China investors from entering into Malaysia's economy already with all these.

All these can be sensitive, but they should not make it till global or even foreign parties to be questioned. I can see so many of that "word" used on the Internet or Google also. The big question is, "Why they not go and issue out those usages on Internet or Google?"

Takut dgn Google ke? They should understand the true meaning of "sensitive" in-laws. Sensitive can mean if any mistake or wrong thing happened, then don't make it publicly la! WHO IN THIS WORLD WILL NEVER MAKE MISTAKE WITH 100% PERFECTNESS BEFORE ENTERING HEAVEN? Definitely, every human has mistake because NO HUMAN can be perfect, and only the God can be perfect, or do you want to go challenge your God/Creator that you are perfect like God/Creator? If so, I can say you are someone who are too ego and never respecting your own religions!

Now, who is the one that never be serious about sensitivity? Kalau ko nak perbesarkan sesuatu isu sampai social media dan sidang media, maka ko la yg merosakkan dan mengancam masyarakat dan agama sendiri!

Seppuku je la.

inb4 kastam buat apa

just simply import without inspection owaii

dont know how many china folks wearing that socks with that sensitive words in china.. so how ah?

You think they will go though all 18k pairs of socks?

It could be a custom order from other customers ? Usually China don't really care about the content as long you pay them.
