MIRI, Dec 4 ― The Sarawak state government has appealed to the federal Ministry of Transport to introduce more Twin-Otter flights daily for the Miri-Lawas sector and another flight for the Miri-Limbang route daily.
He said he had already written to the federal Transport Minister last week to approve two additional flights for Lawas-Miri sector under the public service obligation or Rural Air Service by the federal government. “I hope the ministry will respond soon and agree to our request for seven flights which means MASWings operating at maximum capacity,” he said.
The request was made in response to the complaints by the people in Limbang and Lawas that there was shortage of seats due to the overwhelming demand for air travel from these two northern districts bordering Brunei.
