So it makes absolute sense for Malaysia’s two biggest airlines to

collaborate in areas that are mutually beneficial because the competition

landscape is about to get really tough.

Airlines that are not competitive, bogged down with cumbersome work rules,

old aircraft, high operations cost as well as having quite regular unions’

disputes, would be most unlikely to survive.

And this is already happening in Europe and the United States.

So fasten your seat belts. The best way for Malaysia is to pool its aviation

resources and get its act together to make its aviation sector competitive and

efficient.
