Malaysian PM's shared flight with private firms on overseas trips saves government nearly RM900,000.

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's recent overseas trips reportedly saved the government nearly RM900,000 by using a chartered flight shared with private companies. The total trip cost was RM6.162 million, with the government covering RM1.66 million and private firms covering RM4.5 million. While this approach is seen as cost-effective, it has sparked debate over potential conflicts of interest and the role of private sector funding in official trips.
