Malaysia Airlines and Singapore Airlines should merge, says Maybank aviation analyst
SINGAPORE (May 10): Given the challenging business environment and the downcycle in the aviation sector, Malaysia Airlines Bhd and Singapore Airlines Ltd should be merged, according to Maybank Kim Eng Holdings Ltd regional aviation analyst Mohshin Aziz.
“(The solution is) very simple — merge. Forget the national identity crisis, and they can be merged. It will be able to remove a lot of costs, and make themselves more efficient,” he said in a Q&A session at Invest Asia 2019 here today.
Mohshin, who is also associate director of Maybank Kim Eng Securities, pointed out that Malaysia-Singapore Airlines was once the flag carrier of Malaysia and Singapore, before it broke up in 1972.
“If they were to merge, there will be a lot of improvements in terms of scheduling. Besides, relocation of assets can also be optimised,” he says.
“If the full-service carriers can get away from the mentality that 'I am representing my country', it will bring very good benefits for their businesses. That’s my firm view,” Mohshin stressed.

What about merging Malaysia and Singapore government to solve the corruption and debt problem. 2 birds with one stone.

Dangerous to merge, unless the management control MUST be with Singapore, as you know MAS had collapsed too many times, and rescue after rescue still end up in CCU again and again.
Quite unlikely to merge the 2 diverted work culture to work, as supremacy not talk only, it must prove with meritocratic results.

What do you expect from people with matrix shortcut degrees?
SIA peoples must be rolling on the floor laughing their asses off hearing this.
MAS will be on the road to recovery if they get rid of corruption, embrace meritocracy and discard the ketuanan mentality you idiot.

Telling a joke doesn't need courage, you just need to make people laugh. Quite successful I say
2019-05-10 20:22
telling jokes which make you look like an idiot leh....need big courage....hmmm...maybe he is damn serious.
2019-05-10 20:28
I think PUNTER IB quality also better than them anytime if he's serious... What kind of joke is this seriously... Mergers only happen when both company are at the same playing ground... This one same level meh? More like one from heaven and one from hell.... Takeover also better option lah... But maybe SIA also don't even want to takeover...

last I checked Malaysia Airlines only have 12 new generation aircrafts, the rest is old ones. Oh and not to forget their 25 Boeing 737 Max on orders.... This one even give free ticket I also don't dare to fly.

Don't forget few years back Ryanair Chief Operation Officer also cannot save our MAS oh. What makes you think SIA will be able to save us? What's more why would they want to save us? Based on MAS current fleet, it's not that attractive actually, 6 Airbus A380, 6 Airbus A350... Takeover for just these 12 new airplanes, not worth it. I am sure SIA would rather wait a few more months and get the direct order from Boeing or Airbus.

Mergers are never simple, nor it is effective. Can't believe analyst can make such baseless suggestion, joker of the month.
