No need for new terminal at KLIA: MAHB

SEPANG: Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) do not yet see a need for a new terminal to be built at the KL International Airport (KLIA).

"The current main terminal of KLIA is capable of handling maximum of 35 million passengers a year. We are currently handling between 23 to 25 million," said its managing director Datuk Badlisham Ghazali.

"It has always been in the masterplan of KLIA to expand as when and is needed. However, we will continue to study the possibility of this," he told reporters after the launch of MyFit Systems Malaysia Airports.

Badlisham was referring to a recent statement made by Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Abd Aziz Kaprawi who said a new terminal is expected to be built at the KLIA to expand its total capacity to 100 million passengers.
