KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 5 (Bernama) -- Malaysia Aiports has swooped two accolades in the 2010 Frost & Sullivan Asia Pacific Aerospace & Defence Awards.
The company was the recipient of the Airport Investment Company of the Year Award while its KL International Airport received the Asia Pacific Airport of the Year (Above 15 Million Annual Passengers). The awards ceremony was held in Singapore Thursday, it said in a statement Friday.
In his acceptance speech, Malaysia Airports Chief Operating Officer Datuk Abdul Hamid Mohd Ali said: "Malaysia Aiports is very delighted to receive these first two awards in 2010, and certainly this will spur us to scale greater heights. The award signifies that we have performed well last year despite the adverse economic situation, which impacted the aviation industry all over the world."
This achievement represents Malaysia Airports' second success in the Frost & Sullivan Asia Pacific Aerospace & Defence Awards.
Last year, Penang International Airport was selected as Airport of the Year (Below 15 Million Passengers Annually).
The awards programme, now in its fourth consecutive year, is held annually in Singapore and is looked upon by the industry as the most coveted title for best-in-class performers. It encompasses the airlines, airports, manufacturing, MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul), aviation training, defence, general aviation and homeland security sectors.
