The Singapore High Court stayed the Maldives government's decision to terminate the $500 million contract awarded to GMR Male’ International Airport (GMIAL), a joint venture company comprising of GMR Infrastructure (77%) and Malaysia Airports Holding Berhad (MAHB) (23%), paving way for the operations to continue.
The Singapore High Court (HC) has passed an injunctive relief against the Maldivian Airport Company (MACL) and the government from taking any action based on the November 27 letter. The MACL, based on the directions of the new Maldivian government, had on November 27 cancelled the contract given to GMR in 2010 during the previous regime of President Mohamed Nasheed.
In 2010, GMIAL won the right to build and operate the Ibrahim Nasir International Airport (INIA) for 25 years, which is extendable by another 10 years. The GMR -MAHB consortium had emerged successful amongst the shortlisted six parties in the Male' Airport privatization global bid process managed by IFC, an arm of World Bank.
