DSV Sparks Outrage After Video Shows Laksa Broth Dumped Into Drain
A Viral Clip That Triggered Immediate Backlash
Dato’ Seri Vida (DSV) is facing criticism online after a video spread showing her crew disposing a large amount of laksa broth directly into a longkang. The clip, posted across her social platforms, quickly caught attention and sparked a wider conversation about public responsibility when it comes to waste disposal.
About 300kg Of Broth Allegedly Discarded
In the posts, DSV indicated the gravy was already spoiled, and the amount thrown away was roughly 300kg. She said the biggest “loss” was not the money, but the manpower and time needed to prepare that quantity, adding that her team went back to the warehouse to restart and cook a fresh batch.
Food Waste Meets Environmental Concerns
The part that upset many viewers was not just the wastage, but the method of disposal. Watching a huge volume of food liquid being poured into an open drain led to immediate questions about whether it could affect hygiene, public cleanliness, and the environment.
Some commenters criticised it as pollution, while others said the bigger issue was how casually it was shown online, given her influence and reach. A few also suggested there are better ways to manage spoiled food waste, especially for large-scale festival operations.
Netizens Split Between Criticism And “Move On” Reactions
Reactions were mixed. Some argued it was straightforward, the broth had gone bad and needed to be disposed of, while others insisted that being spoiled does not justify pouring it into a drain and turning it into content.
At the time of writing, DSV has not issued a detailed statement specifically addressing the environmental criticism, beyond explaining the broth was spoiled and production restarted.
