AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes said, “Being named Digital Transformer of the Year for Malaysia was an achievement I was super proud of. To take it up a notch and be recognised as the best in Asia Pacific proves that our digitalisation program is having a profound impact on our guests and the industry, and I couldn’t be more proud of collecting this award on behalf of our Allstars today.”
