“We must look at the management and the modernisation of the airport… With your collective wisdom, I am sure there is more than a 100 years of experience. You were chosen from the different fields of expertise which I believe you will use for the development of this facility. You have the foundation work here… improve and build on it…” the minister, who has the responsibility for the aviation sector, told the newly installed board.
