Am I correct to say, the sector calculation is only solely on MH flights. If you take OW flights it will only count toward Elite Miles?

Also in the website, it states :
Economy - 1 sectors
Business - 2 sectors
First - 3 sectors

Does it mean even if I book O class which only earn like 50% miles, will I get full 1 sectors?

Given sometimes they do have cheap flight between SIN and KUL/KCH and O class, if it will get 1 sectors, then it will be good way to complement some biz class trip.

A round trip biz class trip from SIN to HKG will earn you 8 sectors. So you only need 6-7 business class trip on MH via KUL.

BTW, will domestic flight still earn 0.25 sectors (which I kind of saw in the old threat). also will SIN-KUL considered as domestic flight?

Anyone can confirm? If you flight MH quite frequently, may worth to switch to Enrich.
MH website is outdated. This is what I know.

All MH and OW flights get you elite sectors. Elite sectors are ALWAYS 1 for Economy, 2 for Business and 3 for First regardless of fare class.

To your example, "O" class gets you 50% miles but still 1 sector.

SIN-HKG via KUL in business will get you 8 sectors as SIN-KUL and KUL-HKG are posted separately.

Domestic flights follow the normal elite sector as above, they no longer have 0.25..
