KUCHING: Sarawak’s proposal to set up an airline service to increase air connectivity to the state will not involve any purchase of aircraft, says Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg.

The Chief Minister said Sarawak had the choice of leasing the aircraft, which would be a more viable option compared to buying them.
