Malaysians to be evacuated by chartered plane from Libya

Mideast Revolution


KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 23 The government will charter an aircraft from Europe to evacuate 190 Malaysians who have appealed to leave strife-torn Libya following the Libyan governments refusal to allow military planes into the country.

National Security Council (NSC) secretary Datuk Mohamed Thajudeen Abdul Wahab told Bernama tonight that the Libyan government was opening its air space for 48 hours to allow the evacuation of foreign nationals.But we cant use the C-130 aircraft of the Royal Malaysian Air Force. We are now looking at the second option, which is to hire a charter plane from a European country that is nearer to Libya, he told Bernama tonight.

Mohamed Thajudeen said once the details were sorted out, the chartered plane would leave for Tripoli to fly the Malaysians to Rome.We have Malaysia Airlines operating scheduled flights from Rome which can be used to bring them back home. At the same time, the C-130 currently in Slovakia will fly to Rome and standby as a back-up, he said.Libya is seeing an uprising by the people against its leader, Muammar Gaddafi. Bernama
