Ultimatum for Malaysia Airlines unions

PETALING JAYA: The proposed law governing Malaysia Airlines Bhd (MAB), the new company that will take over Malaysian Airlines System Bhd (MAS), spells out clearly the terms that ensure unions and associations come to the negotiating table within a stipulated timeframe or risk losing out in any decision-making.

According to the bill tabled in Parliament yesterday, any decision made during a meeting between MAB, the trade unions and associations present at the meeting shall be valid and binding.
