The airport and its related Senai airport city development project which comprises a free trade zone, high-tech park and residential and commercial zone, will become an aviation hub catering to all aviation needs for the region, he adds.
"We will take advantage of the growing regional aviation industry and continue with our efforts to attract global aviation players,"
