AHEAD of vaccines against Covid-19 becoming ready for distribution and use, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and Changi Airport Group (CAG) have set up a private-public taskforce to identify and tackle the critical risks and challenges in the air transport of such vaccines, so that they can be effectively delivered into Singapore and the region through Changi Airport.
Lim Ching Kiat, managing director of air hub development at the CAG, told The Business Times that the taskforce has key air-cargo industry members; these include ground handlers, airlines, logistics partners and relevant government agencies.
