CAAM Appoints Futurise to Spearhead Advanced Air Mobility Steering Committee for Malaysia<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This appointment comes at a pivotal moment as CAAM recognises the immense potential Advanced\u00a0Air\u00a0Mobility (AAM)\u00a0holds\u00a0for\u00a0Malaysia,\u00a0positioning\u00a0the\u00a0nation\u00a0at\u00a0the\u00a0forefront of\u00a0next- generation transportation solutions within the low-altitude economy. As urbanisation and congestion strain traditional infrastructure, AAM presents innovative alternatives for faster, more efficient, and sustainable travel, particularly in urban hubs and remote regions. Malaysia’s<\/span> strategic location, coupled with its advancing technological capabilities and government initiatives like the National Transport Policy, lays a solid foundation for AAM to revolutionise the transportation landscape. By integrating cutting-edge solutions such as eVTOLs\u00a0(electric Vertical\u00a0Takeoff\u00a0and\u00a0Landing\u00a0aircraft) and\u00a0drone-based\u00a0logistics,\u00a0the\u00a0country can\u00a0unlock significant\u00a0economic\u00a0opportunities,\u00a0drive\u00a0the\u00a0growth\u00a0of\u00a0industries\u00a0such\u00a0as\u00a0mobility and\u00a0air-based\u00a0services,\u00a0and\u00a0improve\u00a0overall connectivity\u00a0and\u00a0accessibility.\u00a0With\u00a0this\u00a0progress, Malaysia<\/span> is poised to lead the development of a thriving, sustainable low-altitude economy.<\/p>\n

In the soon to be released AAM industry report, which is a collaboration between Futurise and\u00a0Malaysian\u00a0Industry-Government\u00a0Group\u00a0for\u00a0High\u00a0Technology\u00a0(MIGHT), the\u00a0introduction\u00a0of AAM\u00a0is\u00a0expected\u00a0to\u00a0generate\u00a0RM70bn\u00a0in\u00a0additional\u00a0revenues,\u00a0representing\u00a0an\u00a0additional\u00a01.9% of total revenues in the economy. Similarly, value added to the economy will also rise, contributing 2.3% to GDP or an additional RM34bn<\/span> during the 2021-2040 period. The expansion of AAM services will also generate more income for workers involved in infrastructure preparation and operation, with 2.3% of total salaries or RM14bn<\/span> shall be added to total income in the country.<\/p>\n

“The future of transportation lies in the sky, and Malaysia<\/span> is uniquely positioned to harness the potential\u00a0of\u00a0AAM. By fostering innovation and creating the right regulatory environment,\u00a0we\u00a0are\u00a0enabling\u00a0the\u00a0development\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0low-altitude\u00a0economy,\u00a0which\u00a0will\u00a0transform\u00a0industries and improve quality of life for Malaysians,” said Rosihan Zain Baharudin, CEO of Futurise.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, <\/b>CEO of CAAM, YBhg. Dato’ Captain Norazman Bin Mahmud stated, “The regulatory\u00a0environment\u00a0will\u00a0play\u00a0a\u00a0crucial\u00a0role\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0successful\u00a0adoption of\u00a0AAM\u00a0technologies. By creating a clear and effective regulatory sandbox, we can test, refine, and safely scale AAM solutions, ensuring that Malaysia<\/span> leads the way in shaping the low-altitude economy while prioritizing safety and innovation.”<\/p>\n

He\u00a0also\u00a0further\u00a0added, “It\u00a0is\u00a0our\u00a0hope\u00a0that\u00a0this\u00a0collaboration with\u00a0Futurise\u00a0can\u00a0strengthen\u00a0the efficiency of the country’s civil aviation industry in a sustainable manner, in addition to ensuring compliance with international surveillance and safety standards”.<\/p>\n
