PER is the same price but I don't believe you can get Business Suites on KUL-PER as MH don't fly the A350 there. It's arguably not quite EK, but for a saving of £2.5k it's still a great product.

I'm not convinced you'll get EK from the UK much cheaper than that to Australia, that just seems to be what EK charge for it these days.
