The Board of Thai Airways International has
approved the establishment of ThaiTiger Airways but with a change
to the shareholding structure.
THAI will now hold a 49.9% share
and employees of ThaiTiger who have Thai citizenship will hold a
collective 1.1% share, totaling 51% shares held by Thai
shareholders. For the remaining shares, 39% will be held by Tiger
Airways Holdings Limited and 10% by Ryan Asia Limited.
The structure of ThaiTiger Airways’ Board of Directors was
adjusted from the original five members to consist of seven board
members with representation as follows: four from Thai Airways
International and two from Tiger Airways and one from Ryan Asia
Limited.
Thai Airways International will invest 99.8 million Thai
Baht. The THAI Board has instructed the company to request this
investment budget approval from the Office of the National
Economic and Social Development Board, according to the 2007 state
enterprise budget regulations for investments.
Once the
airline has officially registered as a corporation, THAI says it
will apply for an air operating license.
