    The Legislative Branch

    The legislative branch is the most powerful branch in government. The legislative branch is in charge of making and passing laws. They have the power to override a president’s decision, stop laws from being passed, and basically control all decisions the governments makes. The legislative branch, also called the congress, consists of the House of Representatives and the senate. The reason for two houses of congress is to balance out the concerns of smaller but more populated states against states that are larger but with less population (www.Usgovinfo.com).…

    Southwest Airlines

    The company I chose to research is Southwest airlines. It has been one of the most successful airlines in the US, and with very high customer service ratings. This is very impressive to attain by such a small company in a very tough industry. Southwest is able to achieve such levels by having a clear mission of providing low-fare travel using a point-to-point system and not having a hub-based system. The company operates in relatively shorter routes and only maintains one plane type, its famous Boing 737.…

    Prior to its take-over by Tune Air Sdn. Bhd. in 2001, AirAsia was owned by DRB-Hicom, a government-linked company (AirAsia, 2008). Its airline had not been able to take off and was eventually sold to Tune Air, literally for a song, for a token sum of RM1.00 or US$0.26 together with an accumulated debt of RM40 million (AirAsia, 2008). Tune Air was formed by Tony Fernandez and four entrepreneurs, some of whom had worked with the music industry which perhaps inspired the name of the company.…

    History of Airasia

    AirAsia was established in 1993 and began operations on 18 November 1996. It was originally founded by a government - owned conglomerate, DRB-Hicom (Diversified Resources Berhad- The Heavy Industries Corporation of Malaysia Berhad). On 2 December 2001 the heavily-indebted airline was bought by former Time Warner executive Tony Fernandes' company Tune Air Sdn. Bhd. for the token sum of one ringgit (about USD 0.26 at the time) with USD 11 million (MYR 40 million) worth of debts. Fernandes turned the company around, producing a profit in 2002 and launching new routes from its hub in Kuala Lumpur, undercutting former monopoly operator Malaysia Airlines with promotional fares as low as MYR 1 (USD 0.27). In 2003, AirAsia opened a second hub at Senai International Airport in Johor Bahru near Singapore and launched its first international flight to Bangkok. AirAsia has since started Thai subsidiary, added Singapore itself to the destination list, and started flights to Indonesia. Flights to Macau began in June 2004, and flights to mainland China (Xiamen) and the Philippines (Manila) in April 2005. Flights to Vietnam and Cambodia followed later in 2005 and to Brunei and Myanmar in 2006, the latter by Thai Airasia. In August 2006, AirAsia took over Malaysia Airlines’ Rural Air Service routes in Sabah and Sarawak, operating under the FlyAsianXpress brand. The routes were subsequently returned to MASwings a year later, citing commercial reasons. AirAsia's CEO Tony Fernandes subsequently unveiled a five-year plan to further enhance its presence in Asia. Under the plan, AirAsia proposes to strengthen and enhance its route network by connecting all the existing cities in the region and expanding further into Vietnam, Indonesia, Southern China (Kunming, Xiamen, Shenzhen) and India. The airline will focus on developing its hubs in Bangkok and Jakarta through its sister companies, Thai AirAsia and Indonesia AirAsia. With increase frequency and the addition of…
