Exclusive - Choi aims to ace it with AirAsia


“In terms of management efficiency, AirAsia is being run by the top notch in the industry and it has an excellent track record in terms of management, operations and the support of the local community, ” Stanley Choi told StarBiz.

PETALING JAYA: Stanley Choi’s increased stake in low-cost carrier AirAsia Group Bhd is no ordinary bet but one where he has factored in calculated risks just like he would in any of his poker games.

The professional poker player and investor from Hong Kong started looking at the aviation industry when it bottomed out between June and July last year and just as how Covid-19 was an unprecedented pandemic, Choi viewed it as an investment opportunity of a lifetime.
