At the launch event, Deputy-Director General Samuel Lee spoke about Souper Tang’s role in preserving Malaysia’s culinary diversity, stating, “Souper Tang not only presents Chinese culinary traditions in a way that speaks to all Malaysians, but it also supports our nation’s vision of becoming a culinary destination in Southeast Asia.
