KUALA LUMPUR: The government is still looking for ways to help troubled Malaysia Airlines Bhd, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said.

“It’s not easy... we have done a lot. The previous government gave them RM6 billion and sacked 6,000 people, and in addition, reduced the number of flights.

“So, if you reduce the personnel and the number of flights, the ratio between personnel and the activities doesn’t change,” he said in an interview with the BFM radio station here today.
