SEBUAH syarikat penerbangan baru, Amrose Air Sdn Bhd merancang menjadikan Lapangan Terbang Sultan Ismail Petra, Kota Baru sebagai hab penerbangan sewa khas khusus untuk negeri di Pantai Timur dan Selatan Thailand.
Amrose Air adalah anak syarikat Emaslink New Pacific Management Sdn Bhd, syarikat yang mempunyai pengalaman luas dalam bidang perkhidmatan pengurusan dan pelancongan.
Naib Presiden Emaslink, Rosmawati Ismail, berkata Amrose Air kini dalam perancangan membeli atau menyewa sebuah pesawat jarak jauh dan sebuah jarak dekat.

"Kami masih menunggu kelulusan pihak berkuasa bagi membolehkan mengendalikan perkhidmatan," katanya.
Rosmawati berkata, pembabitan Amrose Air yang berpejabat di Kota Bharu dalam perniagaan itu menjadikannya syarikat penerbangan sewa khas tidak berjadual.

"Dengan adanya perkhidmatan penerbangan terus dari Kota Bharu, ia lebih menjimatkan masa selain memudahkan pengguna," katanya.

Katanya, syarikat itu juga berharap mengendalikan penerbangan terus jemaah haji dari Selatan Thailand dari Lapangan Terbang Sultan Ismail Petra.
"Kami juga merancang bekerjasama dengan syarikat pelancongan tempatan bagi menawarkan pakej lawatan ke pulau yang di Pantai Timur seperti Perhentian, Redang dan Tioman selain destinasi menarik di rantau ini," katanya.

Malaysia To Build US$7 Bil Trans-peninsular Oil Pipeline
KUALA LUMPUR, May 7 (Bernama) -- Malaysia has agreed to build a US$7 billion trans-peninsular oil pipeline from Kedah to Kelantan in order to transport oil from West Asia to East Asian countries, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said today.
"Yes, we have agreed to the pipeline," he told reporters after opening the World Halal Forum 2007 here.
Abdullah, who is also the Finance Minister, said the pipeline project was a part of the government's move to develop the much-touted Northern Corridor.
"We have always wanted to do more for that area and this also will take care of the Eastern Corridor," he said.
It was reported that Malaysian petroleum transporter Trans-Peninsula Petroleum Sdn Bhd planned to invest US$7 billion over eight years to build a crude oil pipeline to help ships bypass the busy Straits of Malacca.
According to the report, the project will involve the construction of two oil refineries with the pipeline crossing three states, linking from Yan in Kedah to Bachok in Kelantan.

A Huge Relief For Taxpayers
KUALA LUMPUR, March 30 (Bernama) -- In what is seen as a huge relief for individual and corporate taxpayers, the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) will reimburse excess tax payments for year of assessment 2006 within 30 working days for those using the e-filing system.
The IRB will do this without having to refer to previous years' assessments, Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Sidek Hassan says in a statement.
He made the announcement today following the second meeting of the Special Task Force to Facilitate Business (PEMUDAH) that was set up recently to look into improving the public delivery system.
For individuals, the deadline to submit their tax returns is April 30 and for companies June 30.
This means individuals and companies will be paid back their excess tax payments even though the assessments for earlier years have yet to be processed.
Repayments for assessments before 2006 will be made separately, he said.
IRB will also continue reimbursing excess tax payments directly to taxpayers without waiting for specific applications by them while the reimbursements will be within 30 working days for e-filing users.
Issues related to immigration, land registration and other matters are also being reviewed by the implementors, Sidek says.
PEMUDAH is committed to chalking up improvements in these areas to quicken the government's delivery system and make the climate for business more conducive and enhance the country's competitiveness.
