‘Bird of M’sia’ takes flight in KLIA

Stellar structure: The installation celebrates the achievements of Malaysians.

A STUDENT project that began in 2021 came to completion recently with the real-life installation of a structure in Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).

Named the “Bird of Malaysia”, the installation – which is the resulting effort of a group of architecture and engineering students at Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) – is in the shape of a spread wing of a bird in flight.
