KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia's government will not provide financial relief nor debt guarantees to national carrier Malaysia Airlines, finance minister Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz said on Thursday.

Support measures for the national airline will need to be addressed by its shareholder Khazanah Nasional, the country's sovereign wealth fund, he said in an interview on local radio station BFM.
