Pengarah Urusan dan Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif (CEO) Malaysia Airlines (MAS), Azmil Zaharuddin (tiga dari kanan) hari ini secara rasmi meletakkan jawatannya selepas pemegang-pemegang saham memuktamadkan pertukaran saham dengan syarikat penerbangan tambang murah, AirAsia.
The Malaysian Insider difahamkan bahawa jawatankuasa eksekutif yang diketuai oleh Azman Yahya akan mengendali pentadbiran syarikat tersebut manakala urusan harian serta operasi syarikat akan dikendalikan oleh Pengarah Eksekutif Khazanah Nasional yang juga ahli lembaga pengarah MAS, Mohd Rashdan Mohd Yusof.
Sebelum pengumuman tersebut, Penerbangan Malaysia (MAS), AirAsia Bhd dan AirAsia X Sdn Bhd memeterai rangka kerja kerjasama komprehensif (CCF) untuk meneroka peluang kerjasama dalam pelbagai bidang di bawah sektor penerbangan.
Di bawah CCF itu, semua syarikat terbabit akan melengkapi bidang perniagaan satu sama lain serta memanfaatkan daya saing teras masing-masing dan mengoptimumkan kecekapan untuk manfaat pengguna. Menerusi kerjasama itu juga, syarikat induk AirAsia, Tune Air, akan memilikì 20.5 peratus saham MAS manakala Khazanah Nasìonal Bhd pula menguasai 10 peratus saham AirAsia.
MAS managing director Tengku Datuk Azmil Zaharudin lost his job today after the airline’s shareholders finalised a share swap with Asia’s largest low cost carrier, AirAsia.
The Malaysian Insider understands that an executive committee led by Tan Sri Azman Yahya will manage the state carrier while day-to-day operations will be handled by Khazanah Nasional Bhd executive director and MAS board member, Mohd Rashdan Mohd Yusof.
Azmil will join Khazanah as an executive director effective September 12, 2011.
Under the share swap, AirAsia’s main shareholder Tune Air Sdn Bhd will swap 10 per cent stake in the budget carrier for 20.25 per cent share of the ailing flag carrier in the agreement called a “Comprehensive Collaboration Framework”.
Before the share swap, Tune Air was the biggest shareholder in AirAsia with 26.28 per cent stake while Khazanah held a total of 69.33 per cent share of MAS.
The MAS board will also see some new faces, namely former IJM chief executive Datuk Krishnan Tan, Astro chief executive Datuk Rohana Rozhan and David Lau from Shell Malaysia.
Rashdan, popularly known as Danny, was part of the BinaFikir consultancy that engineered the wide asset unbundling (WAU) restructuring that made MAS a virtual airline in 2002. BinaFikir was then led by Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar, who is now managing director of Khazanah, the majority shareholder in MAS.
