Senator Abdullah Mat Yasim, a division chief of the Umno party, was reported as saying the female flight attendants’ uniforms could “arouse passengers”, and that they did not represent Malaysia’s official status as a Muslim country.
“The Malaysian Aviation Commission must really look into this,” said Senator Abdullah.
He said that tourists could be given the wrong impression about Malaysia by flight attendants dressed “sexily and disrespectfully”.

The modesty of cabin crew members of Malaysia-based airlines has been raised by various local parties in the Parliament. In 2018, Transport Minister Anthony Loke was asked by Rantau Panjang MP Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff if the "revealing" attire can ensure the safety of air travel. Meanwhile, Kuala Nerus MP Mohd Khairuddin Aman Razali also asked if MAS plans for Muslim stewardesses to don the hijab.
