    SIA started off with a humble beginning as part of Malayan Airways. In 1947, Malayan Airways operated services between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and Penang. During 1972, where Malaysia -Singapore Airline (MSA) split in two entities, name Malaysian Airline System and Singapore Airlines. Since then, SIA has emerged as one of the top international airlines in the industry (SingaporeAirlines, 2012). SIA was ranked 17th in Fortune magazine’s list of most admired companies in 2007, the only airline to make it in the top 50. The company also consistently receives prestigious industry awards. SIA has never posted a loss on an annual basis, and has achieved substantial and superior returns in an industry plagued by intermittent periods of disastrous under-performance. From the very first days of SIA, several things were clear in the mind of the brand owner: the airline was determined to be a highly profitable brand, and the best airline brand in the aviation industry. SIA has managed to integrate elements of differentiation and cost leadership strategies. It is positioned as a premium carrier with high levels of innovation and excellent levels of service, and has made a clear strategic choice of giving priority to profitability over size. For ‘full service’ airlines and service organizations in general, delivering excellent service always come at a cost. SIA on the other hand has managed to deliver premium service to some of the most demanding airline customers, who have sky-high expectations, at cost that are within the range of those of budget carriers.…

    carrier flying. Now he wants to create a new breed of air service. Much has happened in the intervening three years. Malaysia Airlines, the Southeast Asian country’s national carrier, was less than four months away from running out of cash when Jala took charge, in December 2005. The state-controlled airline had been struggling for some time, but inadequate yield management, an inefficient network, and poor cost control finally brought it to its knees that year, when it posted a 1.7 billion ringgit ($500 million) loss. Yet in 2007, the airline earned record annual profits of 851 million ringgit. Such a swing would be remarkable for any company, much less one facing the hurdles common with state ownership: a large number of stakeholders, intense public scrutiny, competing priorities, insufficient freedom to operate commercially, and a host of legacy personnel challenges. Now Jala aspires to turn Malaysia Airlines into a “five-star value carrier.” Jala came to Malaysia Airlines with no experience in the aviation industry or state-run companies. But he had won a reputation for engineering business turnarounds during his 23 years at the oil giant Shell, whose Sri Lankan and Malaysian units he rescued from years of chronic losses. In Sri Lanka, he says, “The Shell leadership told me if I couldn’t fix it in two years, just tell them and they would shut it down. I’d be the last person to switch off the lights.” In this interview at his office, at Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, near Kuala Lumpur, Jala discussed the lessons he brought from Shell and how he…
