It had partnered with Majlis Amanah Rakyat , which provided scholarships to Bumiputera students for flight training at the Czech Aviation Training Centre in Prague. MARA funded around 25 students, contributing RM441,000 per trainee for tuition and accommodation, according to Bernama. A parent of a former trainee pilot, who requested anonymity, said that his son was among the MARA-sponsored students sent to Prague in November 2020 under the company's aviation programme.

Azlira has been pursuing the case since May 2022, but despite court summonses, the company's representatives have failed to appear in any proceedings, reported Bernama.
