MASkargo Aims To See US$784.3 Mln Revenue This Year

SEPANG (Malaysia), Jan 30 (Bernama) -- MASkargo Sdn Bhd aims to achieve RM2.4 billion (US$784.313 million) in revenue this year despite weak growth in the industy which has been affected by an uncertain global economy, its acting chief executive officer Mohd Yunus Idris said. The company, which recorded slightly over RM2 billion (US$653.594 million) in revenue last year, expects to generate more sales particularly from the intra-Asian market while optimising its operating cost. "We will expand our market within Asia and enhance our sales strategy in Europe and Australia," he told reporters at a celebratory luncheon for its third Airbus A330-200F, here on Monday. He said the plane would be serving in its three primary Asian routes, namely Pudong, Jakarta and Sydney. "If things are moving very well, we might be flying to Surabaya by the end of this month. So, the route will be from Australia to Surabaya and back to Kuala Lumpur," he said. --BERNAMA Malaysia
