PUTRAJAYA, July 10 ― The new Malaysian Aviation Commission (Mavcom) chairman will receive a pay cut, Transport Minister Anthony Loke said today.

He also confirmed that a candidate has been submitted to Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad as a replacement for Mavcom's current executive chairman Tan Sri Gen (Rtd) Abdullah Ahmad who is expected to step down.

“I have recommended a name to the prime minister, it is the prerogative of the prime minister to make the appointment, but I hope it is made soon to ensure continuity in Mavcom,” he said at the flag off for a Porsche convoy headed to Thailand for the brand's 70th anniversary celebration.

“The new chairman will take a pay cut, on the quantum and so on, we will make the announcement later.”
