KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 21 — The Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd’s success to continue operating the Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Turkiye is a testimony to the ability of a well-managed Malaysian company to invest overseas and contribute to development in other countries.
“MAHB’s achievement in securing an extension of its airport operations in Turkiye is a positive news for Malaysia’s corporate sector besides affirming the close ties between the leaders of the two countries. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced the agreement after having a bilateral meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in New York to attend the 78th United Nations General Assembly.
According to Yeah, the support from both governments and the Turkish President’s expression of satisfaction and confidence in MAHB’s performance would greatly facilitate the company’s ability to complete the extension of the airport runway, in terms of financing and construction operations.
