Umsunguli kanye nesikhulu esiphezulu senkampani yezindiza yaseMalaysia i-AirAsia uyichithile imibiko yakamuva ephakamisa ukuthi icabanga ukwenza isicelo senkampani yaseJapan edonsa kanzima iSkymark Airlines.
“Angikaze ngiwubone udoti ongaka. I-AirAsia ayinayo intshisekelo ku-Skymark e-Japan. Azikho izingxoxo ezibe khona no-Skymark. Sigxile enkampanini yezindiza entsha, ”kusho uTony Fernandes ekhasini lakhe le-Twitter.
UMnu Fernandes uveze ukuthi inkampani yakhe ibihlela ukusebenzisana nomthengisi omkhulu we-inthanethi waseJapan, iRakuten Inc, kanye namanye amabhizinisi ukuze kwethule eyakhe inkampani yezindiza eshibhile ezweni - umzamo wayo wesibili wokungena emakethe yaseJapan.
Esitatimendeni esihlukile, i-AirAsia iphinde yaphinda impendulo kaMnu Fernandes, yengeza ngokuthi: "Siyakuchitha ukuqagela njengamanye amahlebezi embonini." I-Skymark nayo iyayiphika imibiko yokuthi iye yacelwa yinkampani yaseMalaysia.
I-Nikkei Business Daily yase-Japan ithe i-AirAsia ikhuluma nezikhungo zezezimali eziningana ukuze kuxoxwe ngesithembiso esingase sibe khona sokuthenga i-Skymark. Lezi zindaba zenze ukuthi amasheya enkampani yaseJapan akhule ngamaphesenti angama-28.
Ngenyanga edlule, u-Skymark uxwayise abanikazi bamasheya ngokuthi kungenzeka bangakwazi ukuqhubeka nokuhweba uma kufanele bakhokhe izinhlawulo ku-Airbus ngenxa yokwehluleka ukufeza umyalo abawenzile wezindiza eziyisithupha ze-A380 superjumbo. Isivumelwano senzeka lapho inkampani yezindiza ingakwazi ukuthola imali yokunweba futhi manje ithi i-Airbus ithi kufanele ikhokhe “isamba sesinxephezelo esingajwayelekile”.
Ngaphandle kokuphika kwenkampani yaseJapan ukuthi ithathe izintambo, amasheya asakhuphuka, athatha inani ngalinye laya ku-Y230 (£1.34), okusho ukuthi inkampani inenani lamaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-205 (ama-£122.7 wezigidi). Uma ngempela i-AirAsia ingenasithakazelo ekuthengeni i-Skymark, ezinye izindiza zingase zigxume ethubeni lokuthenga le nkampani, njengoba inezikhala ezingu-36 esikhumulweni sezindiza saseTokyo Haneda.
Kodwa-ke, umhlaziyi weGoldman Sachs uKenya Moriuchi ukholelwa ukuthi mancane amathuba okuthi ithathe indawo ngenkathi i-Skymark ikwazi ukusebenza kahle ngokwezimali, njengoba imithetho iphakamisa ukuthi izikhala zesikhumulo sezindiza ngeke zidluliselwe kumnikazi omusha wenkampani yezindiza yaseJapan.
"Inqobo nje uma kunokungaqiniseki ngokuthi lezo zikhala zizosatshalaliswa kanjani, kunzima ukucabanga ukuthi i-AirAsia izodlula kulokhu," wabhala.
