What is the difference between MAIA and NAICO?

The National Aerospace Industry Corporation Malaysia (NAICO), is an agency under the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) and is primarily responsible to spur the development of the industry’s ecosystem and ensure cohesion and coordination of initiatives implemented under the Malaysian Aerospace Industry Blueprint (MAIB) 2030 and Aerospace Industry Framework of the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP).

Whilst industry development is also one of MAIA’s prime objectives our role is to act as an industry advocate, working closely with NAICO on various policies formulated by the government.

As an industry association, MAIA is not answerable to the Government, but only to its members
