(MAHB) is eyeing a total investment of RM1.3bil for Subang Airport’s regeneration development (SZB) that will transform it from an airport operator to an ecosystem master developer and aviation hub in the Asia-Pacific. KLIA Aeropolis Sdn Bhd head Randhill Singh (pic) said RM300mil would be needed for the common infrastructures and RM1bil for building lettable facilities such as hangers; factories; maintenance, repair and operations (MRO); and workshops. He said SZB would leverage the same global technology platforms and vendors used in KL International Airport (KLIA) to have access to global practices and standards. “It is imperative for Malaysia to consolidate its position as a hub across these segments – business and commercial aviation, helicopter ecosystem, air cargo and e-commerce logistics, centre of aviation new technologies, aerospace manufacturing and MRO – in the region.
