KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) is expanding its personalized support package to all of its retailers with up to 30 percent rent reimbursement starting in January 2021.

“Starting in 2021, pre-existing retailers will only be charged rent based on the actual rate of passenger growth at the airport, for example if passenger traffic is 20 percent, they will only pay 20 percent. of the total rent.

“The new rental model, which is applicable to those under the commercial restart program, will allow eligible retail tenants to enjoy a rent reduction of up to 30 percent from current rates with the added benefit of making up the gap in traffic less than 70 percent extended contract period, ”he said.

“It is with this guiding principle in mind that we took this step to offer the additional rebates despite being in the red for the past three quarters, and this will further reduce our cash reserves,” he said. – Called
