Transport Minister Anthony Loke said that it is not impossible for Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 to compete with Singapore’s Changi Airport.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s Transport Minister Anthony Loke said that the country’s main airport Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 must improve its image as well as performance in order to become a regional aviation hub again.

"I don't think it's impossible to compete with Changi . Changi has its advantages but we shouldn’t give in to the fact that we can't compete with foreign countries." In 2001, the terminal ranked as the second best airport in the world, before slipping to 14th place in 2013 and 44th in 2018. Earlier in March, MAHB suspended its aerotrain services at KLIA Terminal 1 after a breakdown that involved 114 passengers forced them to walk 400m on the train tracks.
