BIG DOG
How and why Fernandes is allowed to compete against his own holdings Malaysia Airlines is a mystery. When the ‘share swap’ deal was announced in August, they justification
was Fernandes is a champion of low cost carrier and he is supposed to
use his experience and ‘excellent marketing strategy’ to bring up
Malaysia Airlines. Now, he is competing against Malaysia Airlines in the
premium and full service airline jet service.
Of course consumers would prefer Caterham
Jet over Malaysia Airlines or FireFly. It is jet service and operating
much closer to Klang Valley.
That is not as mysterious how and why
Ministry of Transport changed its ‘All turbo props’ policy for Lapangan
Terbang Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. Previously, only turbo props
commuter airlines in the likes of FireFly and Berjaya Air are allowed to
operate from the airport. This ‘Flip-Flop’ing must be detrimental for
the Malaysian Government.
