KUCHING: The Sarawak and Sabah governments want to acquire MASwings’ equity, bringing back an old proposal first made in 2012 that was shelved a year later.
Both governments want to turn the rural air service carrier, which is fully owned by Malaysia Airlines (MAS), into a medium-haul airline to serve the Asean region from Kuching and Kota Kinabalu.
