Perhaps on 8-8-2011, when Khazanah Nasional Bhd thump printed its intention to purchase 10% of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd, as part of its attempt to save MAS from imminent collapsed, and commissioned Morgan Stanley Investment Bank to do a valuation of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd, it was totally ignorant of the corporate structure of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd that:
a. 31.7 % of its shares are foreign owned; and
b. sustained a loss of RM89, 835, 000-00 as recorded with the authority and etc.
I hope that Khazanah will read this posting so that it will understand the simple corporate structure of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd before it thump printed more formal documents in order to save MAS!
AirAsia X Sn Bhd’s original name was Fly Asian Express Sdn Bhd. It was incorporated on 19-05-2006. Co-incidentally its name was changed to AirAsia X Sdn Bhd on 21-09-2007.
Digressing a little before going into the details of the corporate structure of AirAsia X Sdn Bhd. It was also around this material period that the Ministry of Transport (MOT) granted several international routes (like London, Paris, several cities in China, India and etc) to AirAsia X Sdn Bhd. This was how the MOT blindly protected MAS, our national carrier, by encouraging AirAsia X Sdn Bhd, a private company, to compete with MAS on profitable routes like London and others where MAS has expanded huge sum of money to promote. AirAsia X just jumped on the band wagon and now it appeared to form an integral part of the scheme to save MAS!
MOT must take note that several international routes have not been utilised by AirAsia X Sdn Bhd and therefore, should be withdrawn forthwith.
