Perhaps you should ask the Malaysian Government as to why the currrent situation is how it is... very shortly RAS will not be Malaysian Airlines' responsibility and your buddies can thank AirAsia for that desicion
Before you start casting aspersions off the cuff about MAS, Jala, etc would be good if you did a little homework to comprehend the state of play in KUL right now... unfortunately MAS is a behemoth and they are fighting a much more agile opponent and with "a hand tied behind their back" so to speak. The processes you speak of did not just happen overnight, but likely over the last 6 months. The crisis going on at the moment only became publicly apparent at the end of March - internally no one was really sure if the situation would pan out the way it has.
