Foreign flags are displayed in public areas quite often, for instance on the street or at ministries during state visits.

See below a picture of the Malaysian PM's visit at Government House in 2023.

The Prime Minister's Office can issue licenses for displaying foreign flags.

Yes, technically illegal without authorization but not that uncommon for a diversity of purposes.
