PETALING JAYA: Local passenger airlines will soon ferry cargo instead of people as the nation’s aviation industry seeks to cushion the impact of the Covid-19 crisis which has seen a steep drop in number of passengers as travel and health checks remain in place.

Suresh said the transport ministry and the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia had been supportive of the idea.Such initiatives aren’t new.
