Introduction
History
AirAsia was established in 1993. It was originally founded by a government-owned company Hicom Berhad with a 75% interest and Mofaz Air with a 25% interest. Other than the initial capitalization, Mofaz Air did not participate in a number of subsequent cash calls by the Company. In 1996, the Company became Malaysia’s second national carrier, and officially commenced operations as full-service domestic airline with two aircraft. In December 2001, Tune Air acquired a 99.25% shareholding in the Company
