You should call it New Chang Kee.
Nobody will sue you.
Cheers!

Anything to do with Mac, you will get sued.
E.g Macfries, Macburns, Macreview, Macreform, The New Mac etc.
etc.
How if the country is called MaCau?
Macau as a country or city should predates Macdonalds.
MacDonald's first filed for a U.S. trademark on the name on May 4, 1961.
So you tell me why one is longer?
Mac should came out with a new burger called macsinkies.
The meat is very soft and tender and melts in your mouth.
It has been the favourite food of the pappies since 9 August 1965.

MacDonald's is a registered trademark. If you use "New MacDonalds" and you're in the same food business as MacDonald's, you will be sued. You have to check the number of classes of goods and services that the mark "MacDonald's" is registered, apart from food business, of course.
I think it's foolish on the part of Temasek Review to change its name to New Temasek Review.
For a start, TR (blog) is not caught under any trademark legislations because it existed before TR (TH) was registered. TR(TH) could only sue TR (blog) for passing off under common law. But clearly TR (blog) is not in the same business as TR (TH), so I would say TR (blog) has a better case using TR (blog).

Mac sure sue, you sure soo.

Not just the name but also the product matters.
You can sell McDonalds shoes or have McDonalds dental and no problem. But if you have McDonald sandwiches = problem.
Temasek Review is a widely know website for alternative views. I sincerely doubt if anyone will be confused by the Temasek publication with the same name. So name same buy product different.
