Although the authorities are not sure what should be done with Malaysia Airlines (MAS) whatever plan that is finally decided must be thoroughly studied  first because past restructurings have not been very successful.

What  the national carrier needs to do to restructure itself in the face of massive losses is a talking point but one seasoned analyst feels the first step the airline needs is a detachment from its current major shareholders.
