NSTnation Loke to hold PC on Malaysia's air safety rating downgrade

According to an invitation letter issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia to the media, the press conference would be held at CAAM’s headquarters at Persiaran Perdana, Precint 4 in Putrajaya at 2pm.

Following the downgrade, Malaysian air carriers would also be subject to additional inspections at airports in the US.On a related development, AirAsia Group Bhd was reported as saying its Japan-based unit operations would not be affected by the downgrade. The national carrier said its codeshare agreement was still in place with American Airlines but it only serves a unilateral agreement for the time being.

Alliance of Safety Community secretary Matdiah Mohamad recently urged CAAM to take immediate action to avert the possibility of more restrictive conditions being imposed upon the country's aviation stakeholders.
