It has reached another milestone in its quest to enter China with the signing of a joint cooperation agreement (JCA) with Nagamas Enterprise Hong Kong Ltd (NEL).
The JCA will allow MAHB to help Nagamas Enterprise, a unit of Malaysia's Nagamas International Bhd, develop and expand a small airport in Yongzhou City in Hunan province.
MAHB, through its subsidiary, Malaysia Airports Consultancy Services Sdn Bhd, will conduct more studies with NEL to see how both parties can develop the Yongzhou Lingling Airport.
The JCA with NEL is a follow up to the memorandum of understanding signed between MAHB and provincial government of Hunan in 2010. NEL also signed JCA with Yongzhou municipal government to design, build and develop Yongzhou airport into logistic hub, halal hub as well as umrah and haj centres.
It wants to develop the Yongzhou airport into a regional hub.
Apart from China, MAHB is also negotiating with several foreign parties to manage and operate airports in their countries.
MAHB is currently bidding for the development of Madinah Airport in Saudi Arabia. MA has been shortlisted. But the authorities have extended the deadline to announce the winner to one or two months. The bidding was supposed to close by the end of Feb 2011.
