  • Datuk Kamarudin Meranun Co-Founder, Executive Chairman of Airasia Malaysia and Group CEO of Airasia X
    Datuk Kamarudin Meranun Co-Founder, Executive Chairman of AirAsia Malaysia and Group CEO of AirAsia X Datuk Kamarudin Bin Meranun is the co-founder of AirAsia. Together with his business partner and long-time friend, Tony Fernandes, they acquired struggling domestic airline AirAsia in December 2001 and relaunched it as a pioneer of low-cost travel in Asia. Even with no prior airline experience, the dynamic duo transformed AirAsia from a two-aircraft startup into Asia's best and largest low- cost carrier by passengers carried and jet fleet. Fundamental to this success was Datuk Kamarudin’s vast experience in the financial industry and his leadership in setting the business direction, which paved the way for AirAsia to become one of the world's best airlines. On 6 November 2013, Datuk Kamarudin was appointed Executive Chairman of AirAsia Berhad, where he takes the lead in engaging with the government, aviation regulators and airport authorities of Malaysia. Before his designation as Executive Chairman, he was AirAsia Deputy Group CEO. Datuk Kamarudin was appointed AirAsia X Group CEO on 30 January 2015 to take charge of developing the overarching strategy for AirAsia's long-haul, low-cost business, which consists of AirAsia X Berhad, Thai AirAsia X and Indonesia AirAsia Extra. Prior to joining AirAsia, Datuk Kamarudin worked at Arab-Malaysian Merchant Bank from 1988 to 1993 as a Portfolio Manager, managing both institutional and high net-worth individual clients' investment funds. In 1994, he was appointed Executive Director of Innosabah Capital Management Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Innosabah Securities Sdn Bhd.
