General Electric Co. and Malaysia Airlines have set up an Aero Center of Excellence, an aircraft engine overhaul center in Subang, right outside the capital city. The Aero Center of Excellence will begin operations in September 1997, servicing engines of Malaysia Airlines' fleet and GE's Asia Pacific customers who are currently serviced in the United States and Europe. Seventy percent of the joint venture center will be owned by GE and the rest by MAS. The venture will involve overhauling and repairing CFM International CFM56 engines as well as other engine types in the MAS fleet. MAS will contribute its facility and work force to the venture, while GE will bring in overhaul and repair processes, technology, international marketing expertise and management expertise. |
