Raya’s Group Managing Director, Mohamad Najib Ishak said, “We are pleased to be given trust by DHL to support their growing network, which is a testimony to their market leadership. Throughout the 14 years of partnership between the parties, Raya has developed a robust operational infrastructure to support DHL’s time-definite business model. In addition, we are also delighted to be given the opportunity to support the growth of Penang as a premier air cargo hub, given the presence of large high-end industrials in the state.”
“The Penang-Hong Kong route would not have been possible without the strong support of Malaysia Airport Holdings Berhad as the airport operator in providing the operation-critical arrangements. A special note of thanks to MAHB’s team, led by YBhg. Dato’ Mohd Izani Ghani, the Managing Director,” he added.
