Attempting to propose a trademark for such a common word is certainly unheard of. But is it still possible?

Mother of celebrity entrepreneur Neelofa, Datin Noor Kartini is currently a subject of brutal internet inspection as Twitter users discover her questionable effort in trying to pattern "Harimau Menangis", a popular Thai dish, thus potentially disallowing other potential sellers from using similar name for their business endeavors. 

Many has since expressed their unfiltered thoughts.

So, what does MyIPO have to say about this?

According to their chairman Dato' Muhammad Alamin, complaints are to be considered if a certain trademark application is found to be of no credibility. To conclude, it is yet to be confirmed whether Datin Noor Kartini's proposal will be approved. (source: Malay Mail)
