To achieve the objective, he said Mavcom had outlined three strategic pillars — creating a fair and competitive commercial environment, establish appropriate airports infrastructure and attract strong human capital. “The appointment of senior management officials should be made at the commercial level,” Azmir told a press conference after presenting the plan.
As for the third pillar, Mavcom has recommended the establishment of a strong civil aviation-related human capital base to support the development of the sector. Azmir said Malaysian carriers would face a potential revenue-at-risk worth RM360.8 million and RM10.8 million for aerodrome operators due to the downgrade.
“Indirectly, the downgrade may affect CAAM’s oversight effectiveness, cost of doing business by industry players, Malaysia’s attractiveness as an aviation investment destination, and the country’s credibility in international civil aviation sector,” he said.
