The 'nasi lemak telanjang' issue involving Datuk Chef Wan continues to be a topic of discussion on the internet as many expressed their disappointment over the national dish served on board Malaysia Airlines economy class.
Several passengers have shared the fact this dish has been served by the country's national carrier but it didn't look like the photo uploaded on Chef Wan's Instagram.
The website AirlineMeals.net allows passengers to upload photos of their airline meals to the website and some have uploaded photos of the nasi lemak dish from different years.
This photo was uploaded by Jerry Yong in 2010 during his Kuala Lumpur-Tokyo flight. It contains rendang and sambal udang:
This photo was uploaded by Jensen on April 2011 on board a MAS flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur:
KKWong uploaded this photo of a nasi lemak dish served in November 2011 during a flight from Kota Kinabalu to Kuala Lumpur:
This is a Nasi Lemak dish served in a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Osaka in November 2013: It was uploaded by Augustine Err.
This is the photo uploaded by Chef Wan on January 29:
On Saturday, through a statement issued to Astro Awani, Malaysia Airlines expressed their gratitude to Chef Wan for the comment and will improve the quality of food in their flights.
However, Twitterjaya are still abuzz over the 'nasi lemak telanjang' dish:

Chef Wan is right about MAS inflight meals. They're visually awful, taste average. Nasi Lemak Telanjang indeed LOL

Good point from Chef Wan. @MAS kena do something dengan kontraktor yang jadi caterer nasi lemak ni. @twt_malaysia http://t.co/D9fYWZMElY
