'Stop citing technical problems for delayed flights'
SUNGAI PETANI: Information Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin today called on the management of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) to stop citing “technical problem” as the reason every time there is a flight delay.
It was not a good reason to give in terms of public relations practices as it affected public confidence in taking MAS flights, he said.
“MAS is the national carrier and it should not project a bad image by citing ‘technical problem’ every time there is a delay. This excuse is often given regardless whether the flight delay occurs within the country or outside,” he told reporters after attending the delegates conference of the Merbok Umno division, here.
The minister was among the 139 passengers who were stranded for more than two hours at the Sultan Mahmud Airport in Kuala Terengganu yesterday on his return flight to Kuala Lumpur.
