AirAsia pindah Ibu pejabat dari KL ke Jakarta



AirAsia has chosen Jakarta to be its regional headquarters in an effort to be seen as a Southeast Asian airline rather than just a Malaysian one.

The region’s largest low-cost airline plans to open its base in the capital at South Jakarta’s Equity Building in October, group chief executive Tony Fernandes told the Jakarta Globe on Thursday.

It plans to take advantage of easy access to the Asean secretariat in advance of the “open skies” agreement that will go into effect in 2015.

That agreement will lower barriers for air travel between the region’s capitals.

Asked why he chose to move the fast-growing airline’s principal corporate base to Jakarta from Kuala Lumpur, Fernandes said: “Asean is based in Jakarta, and Indonesia will be the largest economy in Asean in times to come … And I like it there.”

Fernandes, who is Malaysian, said he had already bought a home in Jakarta within walking distance of the new office. “I don’t like the Jakarta traffic,” he said.

The Equity Building is in the Sudirman Central Business District, near the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). According to aviation experts, AirAsia’s relocation to Jakarta highlights the country’s growing importance in the region’s aviation sector.

“This will be great for our aviation industry,” said Dudi Sudibyo, an aviation industry analyst in Jakarta. “This will push us to be better.”

To match AirAsia’s ambitious strategy, the Indonesian government will have to continue to improve infrastructure to accommodate more passengers flying into and around the country, said Bambang Ervan, a Transportation Ministry spokesman.

“This is very positive, we welcome AirAsia’s plan,” he said. “It shows that AirAsia, one of the world leaders in the aviation industry, has confidence in Indonesia’s strong growth.”

The Indonesia National Air Carriers Association (Inaca) forecasts passenger growth at 10 percent to 15 percent this year.

Central Statistics Agency (BPS) data showed that air traffic in Indonesia grew 22 percent to 53.4 million passengers in 2010 on the back of demand from the middle class for domestic flights.

That is higher than the 9 percent average increase recorded by Asia-Pacific carriers, according to data from the International Air Transport Association.

“Indonesia is among very few countries that managed to record strong growth in air traffic last year,” Bambang said. “The lack of available airlines compared to population and geographic conditions is only a sign that there’s a lot of opportunity here.”

Fernandes was in Tokyo for the announcement of AirAsia Japan, a new joint venture with Japan’s largest carrier, the ANA Group, to launch Japan’s second budget airline next year.

He confirmed his airline’s recent order for 300 Airbus A320neos. The deal, originally for 200 planes, was increased with an option for 100 more. It was the largest single aircraft order until Wednesday, when American Airlines ordered 460 Airbus and Boeing aircraft in a $38 billion deal.

Fernandes played down concerns raised by some analysts about the possible debt implications of such a deal, saying the company was cash rich, with a turnover of more than $4 billion last year, and operated as a group with a profit margin of about 20 percent. - http://www.thejakartaglobe.com

MAJORITI Para Hartawan terkaya di Malaysia dari Robert Kuok, ke Ananda Krishna, ke Francis Yeoh semuanya menghabiskan lebih banyak masa tinggal di OVERSEAS!

Antara sebab UTAMA juga adalah kerana PERSEKITARAN untuk melakukan PERNIAGAAN di Malaysia ini, sebab SETIAP KALI mereka ADA dalam negara...ada sahaja golongan golongan VIP POLITIK dari UMNO/BN sampai ker PERDANA MENTERI nak 'makan dinner' sama-sama untuk BERBINCANG...

Cuba lihatlah...berapa BANYAK dah duit Tony Fernandez terpaksa habis SPONSOR "F1 1 Malaysia Team" Malaysia yang memBAZIRkan duit ajer??? Untuk apa? Semata-mata nak dapat LESEN OPERASI dengan lebih mudah? Sebab kerajaan nak JAGA syarikat milikan GLC nya "Malaysia Airlines" sampai Syarikat SWASTA Sepenuhnya seperti Air Asia nak BERSAING dengan secara "ADIL" pun susah??? Kerajaan Malaysia tak berikan banyak lesen untuk AirAsia melakukan banyak Penerbangan Long Haul kerana akan bersaing secara terus dengan MAS yang di miliki kerajaan...

Malah PENDUDUK Indonesia jauh lebih RAMAI dari Malaysia dan sekiranya AirAsia mampu menawarkan penerbangan lebih MURAH kepada rakyat-rakyat Indonesia dan mampu MENJIMATKAN kos operasinya bagi jangka masa panjang, dan sekiranya KERAJAAN Indonesia SENDIRI amat LONGGAR untuk memberikan AirAsia peluang LESEN PENERBANGAN ANTARABANGSA, maka AirAsia boleh tumbuh dengan senang dan untung untuk jangkamasa yang panjang berbanding dengan berOPERASI di Malaysia di mana sikit sikit, terpaksa SUAP ahli-ahli Politik ATASAN semata-mata untuk lakukan BISNES dengan SENANG. Lebih baik lakukan bisnes di mana TIDAK BANYAK GANGGUAN dari Kerajaan dan politik tempatan!

INI lah CONTOH nya di mana "PERNIAGAAN" & POLITIK...TIDAK PATUT BERCAMPUR dan di negara-negara MAJU, majoriti KERAJAANNYA tidak mempunyai atau TERLIBAT dalam perniagaan seperti GLC-GLC di Malaysia...kerana akan WUJUDNYA "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" di antara TUGAS Kerajaan yakni menjaga AMANAH RAKYAT dan mentadbir sahaja dengan mengutip CUKAI atau melakukan "BISNES"/PERNIAGAAN di mana objektif perniagaan adalah utk memperolehi KEUNTUNGAN!

Ahli POLITIK perlukan "WANG" untuk berkempen dan sebagainya. Bila PERNIAGAAN + POLITIK di situ terjadinya RASUAH dan HANCUR produktiviti jangkamasa panjang sebuah negara.

Bayangkanlah kalau Karangkraf pun mula tumbuh dengan pesat dan dapat menyaingi akhbar Utusan atau Berita Harian yang di miliki atau di kawal melalui lembaga Pengarahnya oleh UMNO/BN?

Kalau dah mula BERSAING dengan syarikat-syarikat MILIK Kerajaan yang menjadi SUMBER KEUNTUNGAN PARTI...ingat mudah mudah dia nak bagi LESEN untuk operasi??? -w.i.w.c
