AirAsia announced Wednesday that it’s buyingGojek’sbusinesses in Thailand for $50 million through the issuance of shares in AirAsia SuperApp.\nThe airline is also expected to announce a transaction soon at BigPay, where a capital raising will give the unit “a very nice valuation,” Fernandes said, without providing more details. The fintech company has alsoappliedfor a digital banking license in Malaysia.\nAirAsia also sees big opportunities in its logistics armTeleport, with plans to add a freighter plane in September, Fernandes said. It will receive a leased 737 plane, the firstBoeing Co.aircraft on its fleet, as the airline bets on growing demand from online purchases.\n“Logistics is ready and ripe for disruption,” Fernandes said. “We can be a freight forwarder, we can be a DHL. Teleport is a diamond in the rough.”\nMore Deals\nTeaming up with Gojek will enable AirAsia to provide a vast range of online services from travel and shopping to cross-border deliveries, which will create opportunities for growth. AirAsia has been expanding its digital operations in the last few years and Fernandessaidin March the company’s Super App business would have revenue of $250 million this year and digital services will make up about 50% of the company’s sales in five years time.\nIn a separate interview with Bloomberg TV, Fernandes said the company was in the process of working on three other acquisitions. “We will continue to look for acquisitions that make sense,” he said.\nRide-hailing and payments giant Gojek in Mayagreed to combinewith e-commerce pioneer PT Tokopedia to create the largest internet company in Indonesia, before seeking a stock-market debut at home and in the U.S. The startups will form a holding company called GoTo through a deal backed by shareholders including Google andAlibaba Group Holding Ltd.\n“AirAsia is all about going to a market and disrupting,” Fernandes said. The airline is about “targeting the markets that no one is looking at, giving them value, and growing that ecosystem,” he said.\n— With assistance by Haidi Lun, and Shery Ahn","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":169,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
