Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (myx: 5014) is a Malaysian airport management company. Established in 1991, the company manages most of the airports in Malaysia. The firm was recently awarded the duty to manage airports in international destinations. It has its headquarters in the Malaysia Airports Corporate Office in the Persiaran Korporat KLIA in Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), Sepang, Selangor.[1]
History
Malaysia Airports Berhad was incorporated in 1991 when the Malaysian Parliament passed a bill to separate the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA) into two entities with different spheres of responsibilities. The DCA remains the regulatory body for the airports and aviation industry in Malaysia, whilst the newly created entity, Malaysia Airports Berhad, is to focus on the operation, management, and maintenance of airports.[2][3][4] In November 1992, Malaysia Airports was duly licensed by the Minister of Transport Malaysia to carry out its function as the airport operator.
