09.11.2011

Y.B. TUAN WEE CHOO KEONG [ WANGSA MAJU ] minta MENTERI KEWANGAN menyatakan:-

(a)     mengapa pada tahun 2003, MAS yang berada di bawah Tan Sri Md Nor Md Yusof, yang pada masa itu merupakan Pengarah Urusan MAS dan juga arkitek bagi Widespread Asset Un-bundling aka “WAU” telah menjual 70% saham daripada bahagian di dalam MAS Catering Sdn Bhd, sebuah syarikat MAS yang ‘profitable’ dengan purata perolehan tahunan sebanyak RM300 – RM400 juta dan keuntungan bersih sebanyak RM50 juta atau lebih setiap tahun, kepada sebuah syarikat dan serentak dengan itu MAS memasuki suatu perjanjian yang dianggap berat sebelah terhadap MAS di mana MAS terpaksa membeli semua makanan dan minuman serta lain-lain perkhidmatan kabin dengan keuntungan jaminan daripada syarikat tersebut selama 25 tahun; dan

(b)     nama syarikat itu dan juga harga jualan serta butir-butir penuh perjanjian selama 25 tahun tersebut dan apakah tindakan yang telah diambil oleh Khazanah untuk memecahkan perjanjian yang tidak adil ini yang boleh menjejaskan pertumbuhan MAS dan/atau untuk meringankan beban kewangan MAS.

“Even Messi will have trouble scoring” said Tan Sri Dr Munir

Tan Sri Dr Munir Majid, the former Chairman of MAS

Yours truly hopes that for the sake of MAS, our national carrier, En Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, the current MD of MAS, Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar, En Mohammed Rashdan Yusof, YB Tan Sri Nor Mohamad Yacop and the Government will seriously consider what the former chairman and MD of MAS have said about the track records of AirAsia and AirAsia X Sdn Bhd before embarking on more decisions. which will be detrimental to MAS.  Were the recent decisions made by the current AirAsia and AirAsia X Bhd “friendly” MAS management to cancel Firefly routes from JB to KK and Kuching in September 2011 and MAS route from KL to Bandung in October 2011 in the best interests of MAS?

TF didn’t tell the whole truth about AirAsia X & RAS

One not telling the truth and the other condoning it!

Updated: 25-10-2011 Please read the article quoted from Business Time report dated 21-7-2006AirAsia not the ‘golden child’. You will see from this report how AirAsia got all the helps (i.e. AirAsia was given 91 trunk routes and etc) from the Badawi’s Administration under the so-called “domestic air rationalisation exercise” and AirAsia grew at the expense of MAS.

Below was what Tan Sri Tony Fernandes had been reported to have said as reported by the Star on 26-4-2007 when the then Minister of Transport, Datuk Chan Kong Choy, announced that FAX/AirAsia X Sdn Bhd had to return the Rural Air Services (RAS) in Sabah and Sarawak to MAS.

“Fernandes said FAX would be launching AirAsia Long Haul operations soon, and that it would be too distracting to operate turbo-propeller aircraft as well.”

Rashdan proudly attended the QPR jersey sponsorship press conference

Extreme right is En Mohammed Rashdan Yusof, the newly crowned Executive Director of MAS after the famous secret share swap . Just look at this picture, he was dominated by AirAsia girls. MAS has nothing to show in this press conference yesterday. This was how En Mohhamed Rashdan Yusof was looking after the best interest of MAS! Thank you Rashdan for being an obedient servant!

Yesterday En Mohammed Rashdan Yusof aka Danny (Rashdan), the newly appointed Executive Director of MAS after the the MAS-AirAsis share swap deal that was shrouded with secrecy, flew to London to sign RM18 million jersey sponsorship agreement with Queens Park Rangers (QPR) from yesterday for 2 years, in HERE. This didn’t come as a surprise. Well, 6 days after signing the said secret share swap, Tan Sri Tony Fernandes was reported to have bought 51% of QPR, in HERE. On the same day, Tan Sri Tony Fernandes (Tony) of AirAsia Bhd and Mr Briatore, the former QPR’s chairman, watched QPR being trounced at home by Bolton Wanderer with a score line of 4-0 at home. Perhaps this was a clear warning to the YAB Datuk Seri Najib’s Government:  “Beware of good samaritan like Tony!”
