00:00 Old Tony would have done a lot of things on Instagram and all kinds of things.
00:06 Professional Tony answer, Executive Chairman answer.
00:10 We have made it known to Malaysian Airlines that we could provide them food that would
00:15 work.
00:18 Long time ago.
00:21 You know, I think one of the sad things that I found in Malaysia and other parts is airlines
00:30 sometimes get too emotional.
00:33 And they don't see that it doesn't matter whether you want to work with someone.
00:37 If it makes sense, work with them.
00:41 They don't necessarily want to work with us on Super App.
00:44 Makes no sense not to activate a 50 million database.
00:49 I on the other hand, am working with my competitors because I think that's better for us.
00:55 If our competitor is better than AirAsia, AirAsia needs to be kicked.
01:01 Super App is agnostic.
01:02 We will work with anyone who wants to work with us because we have to make travel affordable
01:09 to everybody.
01:11 So that's a difference in culture, right?
01:14 So you know, Malaysian Airports wants to work with us.
01:18 It's the best relationship we've had in 21 years.
01:21 By the way, the old Tony would have been selling Santan outside the MAS gates.
