KOTA KINABALU: Sabah must plan to relocate Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) from now as the current location would not be able to accommodate the projected passenger growth to 36 million annually in 13 years from now.
Assistant Minister in the Chief Minister’s Department Datuk Abidin Madingkir said at present, KKIA’s capacity is only nine million passengers annually and there would not be sufficient land for expansion due to its close proximity to the city centre, which is about 15mins away.
