“We are ceasing all flight operations in April and foresee the situation to be the same in early May, ’’ Malindo chief executive officer Captain Mushafiz Mustafa Bakri said in a memo to staff.
PETALING JAYA: Malindo Air is ceasing all flights this month and asking 70% of its staff to take no-pay leave.
That involves over 3,400 of its total 4,900 workforce. If the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic worsens with countries continuing to close borders and airspace, the no-pay leave situation will drag into May.
