Malaysia has set itself apart from the rest of the world, when it charges two different passenger service charges, PSC rates for International departing passengers. The RM35 charge for Asean countries and RM73 charge for non Asean countries will be equalised between KLIA and KLIA2 from January first, 2018 onwards. According to Second Finance Minister, Datuk Seri Johari Ghani, the country's PSC rates are still cheap. Debunking dissatisfaction statement by low cost carrier, Airasia berhad. For the record, January first 2017 saw a decrease in PSC rates for Asean countries in KLIA from RM65 to RM35. Whereas for KLIA2, an increase from RM32 to RM35. While for non Asean countries for KLIA the PSC was raised from RM65 to RM73 and for KLIA2 from RM32 to RM50. The new rates, however, did not dampen the total passenger traffic to Asean and non Asean from KLIA2. As at November, it recorded an 11.6% growth year on year with RM27.4 million passenger traffic movements. From the RM24.5 million - RM5 million passenger traffic movements recorded in the same period a year ago.
