Malaysia Latest News,Malaysia Headlines

Our Dewan Rakyat has passed a bill to dissolve the Malaysian Aviation Commission, also known as Mavcom. The bill was passed despite a failed bloc vote by the

Opposition.

The dissolution bill, which was read by Anthony Loke, Transport Minister, initially sparked fierce debates with multiple Opposition MPs who called for the bill to be passed on to the Parliamentary Special Select Committee . The bill was passed via bloc vote with 93 in favour, 63 against, and 63 absent.Loke says the bill to dissolve Mavcom was done after what he calls comprehensive engagement sessions with relevant stakeholders.

'The government has considered the implementation of merging the national civil aviation regulatory bodies, involving CAAM and Mavcom, through the repeal of Act 771 and amendments to Act 788 ,' Loke said. 'This unified mechanism is also employed by most countries that oversee the world's major air transportation sectors, such as the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Singapore and China,' he said in his speech during the tabling of the bill, today.
