Very good result, since this is interim and not final dividend, this means DY could be more than 3%!

Outstanding 1H result after factoring out 2016 one-off gains

@nikicheong: "While his joke worked up the crowd, I was amazed by his next statement, “We keep winning awards which is great for our brand and we make money from that. But we are the only company that continues to make money from the annual report.”"

Nikicheong, TF is famous for increasing marketing spend when everyone else was cutting during downtimes. Marketing is a big part of what they do.

I don't get the difference, still can compare FY2016 to FY2016 apples to apples..

@valuegrowth Airasia reported detailed operating stats including CASK/RASK, and TF said during analyst call he prefers those metrics over yield. It's very impressive - Garuda reported CASK in USC of 5.6+ while Airasia is HALF that. Meaning Airasia is a much more efficient airline.

Thanks for sharing. As a newbie investor too it's great to see how others began their journey. Ignore the noise :)
