I fully support Air Asia’s move to build a new low cost terminal in Labu. The KLIA East @ Labu project is timely as the current low-cost terminal, LCCT at Sepang is unable to cope with the increased volume of passengers using Air Asia. The congestion at the current LCCT in Sepang does not augur well for the image of the country, especially to tourists. With the increased number of passengers opting for low-cost carriers, it is important that these tourists have a good ‘first impression’ of te country when they arrive. The new terminal, when in 2011, is projected to be able to accommodate 30 million passengers which AirAsia and AirAsia X hope to carry by 2015. With a larger volume of traffic expected over the next few years, the KLIA East @ Labu project is very much needed. The project is also consistent with the government’s aim to make Kuala Lumpur a regional air transportation hub as well as efforts to popularise Malaysia as a tourist destination.

Dear Sir,
With all due respect, I find your reasons to support the KLIA East project to be utterly stupendous and absurd.
We don't need a second airport when the main one is underutilized. Period.
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
It's free.

simply regurgitating everything you've read from bought media...
can't you come up with something original?
either way, Government had had to rethink on it's badly misinformed decision to allow building labu.
