Airport expansion: The Malaysian experience of KLIA2

The paper describes the Malaysian experiences with airport expansion. Increase in international and domestic air travel has resulted in increased demand for airport facilities. In Malaysia, the rise of low-cost air travel has had the government revising the current capacity of the international airp...
