'Massive jump in airport, passenger taxes on way'

  • 9 years ago
A DAP MP today said that Malaysia Airports Berhad (MAHB) might resort to increasing airport and passenger taxes to make up cost overruns of KLIA2's construction, which has slashed MAHB's profits immensely.

Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua pointed out that MAHB's first financial report since the RM4 billion airport started operations, showed that the airport operator's profits plunged a huge 98.6 percent to only RM1.61 million.
