A very similar routing to mine. That HKG-KUL route is going to be very popular as a gateway to MH's network.

Also now worth noting that OneWorld can get to the Maldives via HKG-KUL-MLE instead of the 1x weekly (or is it 2x?) BA flight. 4hr flight from KUL on a 737-800 after a very long trip to KUL from the US, but at least it's daily.
