PETALING JAYA: Khazanah Nasional Bhd has dismissed media reports on the new CEO for Malaysian Airline System Bhd (MAS) as speculative and premature, saying that the search for a new CEO is still ongoing.
On Aug 29, Khazanah announced that it is undertaking a global search for a new CEO for MAS from among Malaysian and foreign leadership talent.
The search forms part of efforts to strengthen the leadership of the airline, as called for under the 12-point MAS Recovery Plan.
"The final decision on a new CEO will be made after due consideration and in consultation with the special shareholder, Minister of Finance, Incorporated. The outcome will be announced in due course, within the timeframe indicated previously," it said.
