What about co-habiting/non-married partners/couples and their approach to LGBT couples? Appreciate latter might be quite niche, but just wondered if there were any first hand insights/experiences
No first hand experience and was asking myself the same questions. The definition in their T&Cs is "A companion is the legal spouse (husband or wife), the parent (father or mother), the sibling (brother or sister) or the one (01) child (son or daughter) children of the Principal Platinum Member. " That seems to me pretty restrictive. As to LGBT couples, let us not forget that Malaysia is not exactly renowned for its LGBT-friendliness, at any rate as far as the legal environment and officialdom are concerned.
