<h3>September still weak but recovering fast</h3>
<p>Malaysia Airport (MAHB) recorded total passenger movements of 458k for September with close to 80% came from the domestic sector. Overall, September’s traffic marked an encouraging recovery with a significant MoM growth of 54.8%, thanks to the launch of Langkawi travel bubble on September 16. On YoY basis, however, the traffic declined by 73.2% YoY as Sep-20’s traffic was spurred by Sabah state election, in our opinion.</p>
