Instead of worrying about reduction in passenger numbers, the world's best low cost airline, AirAsia Bhd, will continue to fly to Japan although the land of the rising sun is being faced by uncertain radiation leaks from a crippled nuclear-power plant.
Group Chief Executive Officer Datuk Seri Tony Fernandes said Airasia would, instead continue to provide full capacity flights to the world's third-largest economy, as a sign of solidarity.
He said AirAsia's decision was consistent with the airline's earlier stance when it continued to fly to Christchurch, New Zealand, which was hit by an earthquake on Feb 22 and to Bandar Aceh which was almost wiped out when Tsunami hit Indonesia on Dec 26, 2004.
Airasia's long-haul affliate Airasia X has been flying to Tokyo's Haneda airport from Kuala Lumpur since December last year.
"AirAsia's presence in these areas is also to help these disaster striken countries. We don't want to dissapoint them," he said.
Datuk Seri Fernandes, who received the Order of the British Empire award from Queen Elizabeth II in London yesterday, is presently, without a doubt, one of the most admired executive-turned-entrepreneur in the Malaysian corporate world.
We wish him continued success in bringing in the numbers of tourist into Malaysia. He is truly our Minister of Tourism for this region.
