Despite recording a 4% rise in passenger traffic this year, Malaysian airports are reported to be pessimistic of next year’s performance, in view of the global economic downturn.
Bernama reported Malaysia’s Transport Minister, Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat, as saying that this year’s growth came during the first eight months of 2008 but the last quarter is expected to be severely dented
“This (economic downturn) is the overall scenario that we should have in mind. We know at this juncture, this is primarily due to the economic downturn globally,” Ong told reporters.
