Says " Made in Malaysia " on the label !!

As I recall, the Savabit solder contained a little copper. Does it say
that on the label too?

It did indeed. It was called Savbit btw.

It was one of its selling points that it reduced 'wear' on a copper tip.

Some of the modern lead free solders include an element of copper as well as
silver.

I despair where this is going. Political soldering correctness ?
