- Fare feels too good to be true? Don't call the airline!!!!!!
- Double check that the fare is actually in Business or First as some online search engines or OTA's confuse booking classes on some airlines.
- Post as many details as possible about the First / Business fare, including fare class, fare basis, one-way / roundtrip, sales channel, sample dates & total price, including taxes.
- Post the details within the thread itself and not in the post title field as any information typed here cannot be seen by members accessing the thread using mobile devices.
- Refrain from posting fare requests or engaging in off topic debates such as fare trends, specific aircraft configuration or visa requirements
- The deeply discounted international fares discussed here are almost always specific to a certain country of origin, so don't ask if it works in reverse (e.g. a SFO-LHR-SFO fare usually won't work LHR-SFO-LHR). Domestic fares more commonly work in reverse.
- Last, but not least, Don't call the Airline!

PS: CX will really be suffering if they don't compete against the new OneWorld partner with such premium fares.

Looks like my previous posts were deleted. If you search you will find that the ex-PNH and ex-HKG fares on MH have been around for a while and discussed (including round trip). There is no point trying to re-invent the wheel.
Found a filed fare on ExpertFlyer for REP (Siem Reap) to LAX on MH; one-way business fare of 712USD plus taxes and fees. Prices out about 1193USD one-way. Requires an overnight in KUL due to schedules and KUL-LAX (via NRT) is not a daily flight so some adjustments may be necessary to make it work. I was able to price it out on the Malaysia site in April. Books into D. Not bad if you need a one-way fare!
Edited to add: also available as a roundtrip for 1294USD plus taxes/fees (I priced it 2199USD all-in roundtrip), and is available from either REP or PNH via KUL.

Yes, roundtrip from either of PNH or REP-LAX and back. It does not appear to be valid to any other US city than LAX (the only one served right now by MH). Routing rules expressly dictate REP/PNH-KUL-TYO-LAX as the routing to (and reverse on the way back).
Appears valid and prices the same for open jaw (thus you could fly PNH-LAX on your outbound and LAX-REP on your return). Changes permitted and refundable for USD40 service charge per fare rules.

The Malaysia Airlines REP/PNH-LAX fare is still showing available. 1290USD one-way or 2200USD roundtrip in business, connecting via KUL. Only available for flights originating in either REP or PNH, but you can do an open-jaw (out of PNH, back into REP). Only available to LAX. Allows stopover in KUL if you wish. Great deal to the US from SE Asia. Looks like flight schedule require an overnight in KUL outbound as the KUL-LAX (1-stop in NRT) leaves in the morning.

Paris was cheaper - same base fare but you avoid the punitive UK departures taxes that are applied for long hauls in J or F. It's £166 for HKG per person post April 1st - grr.....
