Mueller lands in KL to start job as MAS chief

Singapore

A WEEK before the first anniversary of the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370, Christoph Mueller landed in Kuala Lumpur to take up the job as the carrier's new chief.

The 52-year old German has been given the mandate to reset the course and redeem the reputation of the flagging carrier, shaken to the bone first by MH370's vanishing, and then, four months later, by the shooting down of MH17.
