WATCH: Popular Shawarma Joint, Damascus In Bukit Bintang Raided Over Work Permit Violations

05-Dec-2023

Oh, isn't it just a delight when our favourite eateries become the stars of unexpected dramas? Because who doesn't love a side of immigration raids with their shawarma, right? 


Damascus, a well-known name among enthusiasts of Middle Eastern cuisine in the bustling area of Bukit Bintang, has recently faced a setback. Despite attracting long queues of customers eager to savour their dishes, the Immigration Department of Malaysia conducted a raid at the restaurant.

The focus of the operation was on the lack of proper legal work permits for the restaurant's workers. During the raid, numerous restaurant staff were escorted out, causing a temporary halt in the business's operations, even with customers present.

Netizens are supportive of the authorities' actions, emphasizing the importance of ensuring that foreign workers possess legal work permits, citing a similar incident a few months ago when the popular Middle Eastern dessert shop, Zaitoun, faced closure for the same reason.


As of now, there has been no official statement from either party involved.


So, where on earth are we supposed to satisfy our sudden cravings for that heavenly shawarma now?
