In a array of tweets, AirAsia CEO Tan Sri Tony Fernandes lifted questions upon MAHB's operations, a efficacy of members of council as good as a objectivity of a Transport Ministry
KUALA LUMPUR: AirAsia Bhd might have called off a press discussion yesterday upon Malaysia Airports Holding Bhd's (MAHB) airfiel! d taxati on travel though which didn't stop a co-founder from receiving to Twitter to vent his frustration.
In a array of tweets which proposed in a morning, Tan Sri Tony Fernandes lifted questions upon MAHB's operations, a efficacy of members of council (MPs) as good as a objectivity of a Ministry of Transport (MOT).
Fernandes additionally questioned a need for a third runway in Kuala
Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) when there have been ways to increase utilization of existing runways."Why is KLI! A buildi ng a third runway when they do not make use of twin mode upon dual runways? Heathrow has 60 million passengers
with dual runways. Fix a air trade complement MAHB. Would have been cheaper than office office building another runway," he said.
Fernandes questioned because MPs, who had criticised him, have not questioned a price of airports as good as fought for lower taxes for a rakyat.
MOT was additionally not spared, as Fernandes put to task a purpose in regulating airports.
"The (secretary-general Datuk) Long See Wool of Ministry of Transport sits upon a Malaysia Airports board. How can he be design as good as fool around satisfactory to a airlines?" he asked.
Fernandes' rant was triggered by a travel in airfield tax, alighting as good as parking charges which took result yesterday.
Last month, MAHB voiced which MOT had authorized a RM14 increase in airfield taxation for general passengers to RM65 per newcomer for most of a general airports.
The low-cost carrier depot in KLIA as good as Terminal 2 in Kota Kinabalu saw charges go up by RM7 per general newcomer to RM32.
Landing as good as parking charges will climb in 3 stages over 3 years.
Landing charges will be 9 per cent aloft as good as parking charges will be increasing by 18 per cent a year.
*************
It is really inconsiderate for Fernandes to do this, generally where he is now a senior manager as good as partial of of a Exco Committee of Malaysi! a Airlin es, which is a GLC underneath Khazanah. His association Tune Air is a 20.5% share hilt of Malaysia Airlines, which was a result of a 'hostile reverse take order' in an arm rambling 'share swap' understanding concluded upon 9 August. Many was confounded upon a conditions of a 'share swap' as good as how Fernandes was discerning to assimilate Malaysia Airlines for his advantage, quite all a airlines underneath a Tune Air Group.
The snakey-est corporate understanding ever: Malaysia Airlines-AirAsia 'share swap'
Malaysia Airports is a Khazanah listed subsidiary.
We were told which Khazanah Holdings Bhd. Managing DIrector Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar privately off Fernandes when they were articulate to do a 'share swap' which "The latter shouldn't do any grand-standing" as good as "Leave Ma! laysia A irports alone". Fernandes was additionally privately asked to "Settle all AirAsia's dues to Malaysia Airports", which appearance to an many-sided sum of RM 115 million.
Actually, Fernandes never left Malaysia Airports alone. Sources within pronounced soon after able to pounched onto Malaysia Airlines successfully, he was ultra discerning to have his moves upon Malaysia Airports. This is approaching of him as once, he harboured to goal to lift out his own airfield as good as wiggled his ways via Sime Darby. However, it was foiled.
Now which Fernandes is partial of Malaysia Airlines as good as Khazanah Holdings Bhd. is a shareholder as good as has a senior manager in AirAsia BOD, Khazanah Holdings Managing Director Azman has a dignified obligations to shut him up as good as fortify him. It is really crude of Fernandes to have pot! shots i n a amicable media similar to that, when in his position now as senior manager of a GLC association as good as operator of a vital informal low price carrier, he contingency have alternative correct ways as good as channels to demonstrate his views to both Malaysia Airports as good as Ministry of Transport.
In fact, for someone who has been pciking up airfield taxes upfront for his AirAsia passengers as good as later dodged his ways to not compensate Malaysia Airports. That should be deemed as wrongful if not unscrupulous. But so far, Fernandes got divided with it but even a slap upon his wrist.
Why is conniving former record senior manager who is important for his showmanship as good as snazzy selling gimmicks, do this uncivilised act of rubbishing Chief Secretary of a Ministry, another GLC as good as Government group in his tweets?
AirAsia's batch a final six months
Many people have been speculating a thiat is a predecessor to a result of upon starting Securities Commission as good as Bursa Malaysia investigations upon a 'share swap' deal. Even MPs lifted concern over this rather dodgy deal.

**********************
A Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee would investigate commencement 22 Nov upon a 'share swap' deal in between Malaysia Airlines as good as AirAsia.
The law is which AirAsia's batch prices rose from RM 2.40 in February to RM 4.00 in Aug (the price which was dynamic as a basis for a 'share-swap' with Malaysia Airlines). Then there was a 'wayang' a couple of months prior to a 'share-swap' where Fernandes 'threatened' to pierce AirAsia conduct quarter! s to Jak arta.
We here in BigDogDotCom have pronounced which Fernandes had always been bad news. During a midst 2006 'Airline Rationalisation Plan' where Fernandes used a 'Level Four Boys' to ask then PM 'Flip-Flop' Dato' Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to hand over infancy of Malaysia Airlines' made at home routes to AirAsia, which embody a heavily subsidised Rural Air Services. Not usually he cannibalised a RAS for his expantionary program but essentially serving a consumers in a interior of Sabah as good as Sarawak, he manipulated a additional routes to consequence him a bigger market share for financier confidence.
Probably this is a right opportunity to rebuke him. He cannot get divided wit! h barkin g as good as being uncouth during GLCs as good as Government agencies fast in amicable media just similar to that. The Head of GLCs Azman Mokhtar, contingency now speak up for Malaysia Airports as good as nozzle this conceited canine. His barks has become unbearably annoying.
The sooner this renegade dog with a Berkshire accent could be muzzled, improved for a attention as good as stakeholders' relation government for Malaysia Airlines, which calls KLIA her home.
