Ahead of merger with Mavcom, ex-chairman says CAAM must keep independence to inspire confidence in stakeholders

Economist Nungsari Ahmad Radhi has urged for the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia to remain independent ahead of its pending merger with the Malaysian Aviation Commission.

“Will it still be there? Government sets policies and legislates laws but the implementation of those laws via regulations and its enforcement must be and be seen as independent.Nungsari also questioned how CAAM would finance a larger portfolio as it departs from its initial sole technical oversight responsibility.

Yesterday, the Ministry of Transport tabled two Bills that would disband Mavcom and fold its functions into CAAM, nearly five years after it was first proposed by the then, and current Transport Minister Anthony Loke in 2019, and backed by the ruling coalition in 2020 after the abrupt shift of power.
