Hurting those they should be helping

I AM writing in response to the amendment to the Malaysian Aviation Commission (Mavcom) Act 2015 which would allow the said body to impose a RM1 fee for passengers to fund its own operations, “RM1 flight levy starts January” (The Star, Oct 25).

I am deeply disappointed that our Government has decided to let the Commission source its funding from the very consumers it is supposed to protect.
