Malaysia Airports Holdings (MAHB) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with China Henan Aviation Group Co., Ltd (CHAGC) aimed at boosting air cargo connectivity and logistics between Malaysia and China. This strategic partnership is anticipated to enhance the efficiency and reach of both airport operator groups by establishing new air cargo routes between Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport (CGO) and Kuala Lumpur International (KUL); creating routes linking Europe with Malaysia and strengthening KUL as a regional logistics hub.
The partnership will also focus on expanding the infrastructure needed to support transshipment and re-export activities. By leveraging CHAGC’s expertise, this collaboration will enhance KUL’s cargo capabilities, said MAHB in a press release.
CHAGC currently manages CGO and also has cargo terminal projects in Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD) and Leipzig/Halle Airport (LEJ).
