Malaysia will press ahead with its alliance with the GMR group despite the setback to the joint venture Ibrahim Nasir International Airport (INIA) project in Maldives, Malaysia's industry minister said.
Mustapa Mohamad told reporters on Saturday that Malaysia is "pleased" with its partnership with GMR in developing two airports in India (Delhi and Hyderabad)) and the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey, Economic Times (ET) reported.
Many countries in Central Asia have ambitious plans to expand their airports and Malaysia will actively pursue these opportunities with GMR, he said.
"We are very disappointed that the (airport) contract was terminated by Male. We hope this is not going to prevent Malaysian Airports and GMR to go to other countries in future."
