Ex-MAS MD: National carrier should buy AirAsia


KUALA LUMPUR: Former Malaysia Airlines (MAS) managing director Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Abdul Rahman has suggested that the ailing carrier acquire profit-making AirAsia Bhd as a strategy to resolve its financial woes and return to profitability in the long term.
