    Indonesian aviation enters an exciting new chapter:Outlook 201012th March, 2010 PREMIUM

    Indonesia is a high-potential aviation market, w ith a strong natural requirementfor air services and a large population w ith rising incomes to support the industry.The rationalisation of domestic capacity over the past two years has helpedrestore financial health to the airline sector to the point where Garuda Indonesiais planning a landmark IP O later this year. Overall domestic capacity levels fell9.4% in 2008, with a further 12.7% contraction in 2009, meaning domesticcapacity has returned to 2004 levels in 2009.

    This reduction can be attributed to the demise of Adam Air in 1Q2008. It accounted for upto 15% of Indonesian domestic capacity prior to its failure - a hole that is yet to be filled.The failure of Adam Air, which was renowned for its unrealistic pricing policies and poorsafety record has, however, given breathing space to incumbent airlines to concentrate onyield improvement, and improve their financial positions ahead of the next phase of

    expansion.

    Adam Air has not been the only recent casualty. While there has been a rapid growth in thenumber of Indonesian-based start-ups, reacting to the Indonesian Governments

    liberalisation of the countrys air services arrangements early last decade, there have beenvarious failures, with a raft of bankruptcies and withdrawals of previously issued licences.The rapid growth has not always being accompanied by appropriate regulatory oversight orrigorous attention to air safety requirements.

    A disproportionate accident rate among both established and fledgling airlines has also led

    to international concern, which culminated in a 2007 ban on any Indonesian carriers beingpermitted to operate to the European Union. This ban was lifted for four Indonesian airlinesin Jul-2009 (Garuda Indonesia, Airfast, Mandala and Premiair), following a concertedoverhaul of government regulatory structures, accompanied by a strong commitment toimprovement by Indonesias air carriers.

    Much work, however, remains to be done, with some 47 airlines (many of which are papercarriers that have never flown) remaining on Europes unacceptable list, including LionAir , Merpati and Indonesia AirAsia. The Indonesian Transport Ministry has stated it plansto request the EU Air Safety Commission lift its 2007 ban on 20 of these carriers, reportedlyincluding Batavia Air, Lion Air and Sriwijaya Air. Meanwhile, the US FAA rates Indonesias

    safety standard as Category 2 ie the country does not meet ICAO safety standards.

    International capacity, meanwhile, has maintained its growth trajectory in the past fouryears, with the countrys aviation market to further benefit from the impending ASEANOpen Skies Agreement, which will open the region to increased traffic flows, in addition toimproved economic conditions in the country, and the region in general.

    At the same time, Garuda Indonesia - the countrys largest carrier is proceeding with itsIPO and global alliance plans as it aims to position itself as a key airline in the region anddifferentiate itself from its low cost rivals, while Lion Air, the countrys larger private airline,has a rapid growth profile rivaling that of the regions fastest growing LCCs, with orders forover 150 aircraft. LCCs, including Indonesia AirAsia and Mandala, also represent a small, yet

    high-potential and growing segment.

    To support this airline growth, the Indonesian Government has pledged to double spendingon transport infrastructure, including airports, to USD140 billion over the next five years,part of a push to deliver economic growth of at least 6.6% by the end of 2014.

    PART I: COUNTRY OVERVIEW

    Indonesia weathers the global turbulence of 2009; poised to resume pre-crisisgrowth trajectory

    Indonesia has weathered the global financial crisis relatively smoothly, aided by resilientdomestic demand, solid consumer confidence levels, stimulus programme spending, lowerinterest rates and political stability. These factors, led by President Susilo BambangYudhoyono, who has served as the countrys President since Oct-2004 (President

    Yudhoyono was re-elected in Oct-2009, and named respected economist, Jusuf KallaBoediono, as his VP), have enabled the country to weather the global economic turbulenceof 2008/2009 and emerge poised to resume its pre-crisis growth trajectory.

    Although the economy slowed significantly from the 6% plus growth rates recorded in 2007and 2008, Indonesias economy has remained robust, with expansion of 4% in 1H2009 andanticipated full year GDP growth of 4.5%, Indonesia has outperformed its regionalneighbours in the region posting growth during the crisis, with the Indonesian Governmentnow expecting GDP growth of 5.5% in 2010, with President Yudhoyono targeting 7.0%growth by the end of his second term in 2014 (the IMF is less bullish in its outlook, with anestimated growth of 4.8% in 2010 and 6.3% in 2014).

    Meanwhile, the Indonesian governments financing requirements will be about 4% of GDPthis year, less than half of those of India and the Philippines, and less than a quarter of

    those of Greece, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey, according to Credit Suisse.

    Successful economic policy throughout the downturn, but poverty, unemployment

    and inflation remains a concern

    The Indonesian Government has succesfully implemented fiscal stimulus measures andmonetary policy to counter the effects of the crisis. Specifically, the government introducedsignificant reforms in the financial sector, including tax and customs reforms, the use ofTreasury bills, and capital market development and supervision. Indonesia's debt-to-GDPratio in recent years has declined steadily, due to increasingly robust GDP growth and soundfiscal stewardship.

    Impressively, Jakartas benchmark stock index gained 87% in 2009, with the IndonesianRupiah gaining 16% (for the best performance from an Asian currency outside of Japan).

    Consumer confidence, meanwhile, rose in Jan-2010 to near the five-year high recorded inJul-2009.

    Indonesia, however, still struggles with poverty (with approximately 14-15% of thepopulation below the poverty line and the government aiming to reduction this to around 8-10%), high unemployment levels (the country had an estimated unemployment rate of 8%in 2009, with the Government aiming to reduce this to 5-6%), inadequate infrastructure,corruption (which often relates to political instability), a complex regulatory environment,and unequal resource distribution among regions. Inflation also reached a nine-month highin Feb-2010, amid rising commodity and food prices, putting pressure on the central bank

    to raise interest rates this year.

    Geography ideal for air transportation

    The geography and demographics of Indonesia are also ideal for air transportation: TheIndonesian archipelago is comprised of 17,508 islands (6,000 inhabited), covering an areaof 1.9 million sq km and making Indonesia the 16th largest country in the world.

    The country also has the fourth largest population in the world, with 240.3 millionpassengers (behind China, India and the US) and a growth rate of approximately 1.1% p/a.

    Approximately 52% of the total population lives in urban centres, with a 3.3% annual rateof change in the rate of urbanisation. The country has a net immigration rate of -1.24migrants/1,000 population, based on estimates for 2009.

    PART II: AIRLINES

    While Garuda Indonesia is the national airline of Indonesia, the nations largest privateairline, Lion Air, currently commands the largest domestic capacity share, at 40.8% of thetotal (equating to slightly under 400,000 weekly seats), considerably more than Garuda

    Indonesia, with its 24.5% capacity share (or 235,000 weekly seats). Lion Air describes itselfas a hybrid low cost operator, offering both economy and business-class seating.

    2009, with a net worth of USD480 million), took to the skies from Indonesia in 2000 withone aircraft in its fleet. Within eight years of operation, Lion Air now operates to more than36 destinations in Indonesia and other destinations in the region (including Singapore,Malaysia and Vietnam) with up to 160 daily services.

    Whats happening to Lion A ir Australia?

    In Jan-2008, Lion Air announced plans to commence Australian operations in late 2008,

    flying as Lion Air Australia, and using a six B737-900ER aircraft fleet. Under the proposedplan, Lion was to hold 49% of the new company, which was to be 51% owned by (nowdefun t) small Australian charter operator, SkyAirWorld. Under the proposed plans, Lion AirAustralia was initially only looking at international routes, to Indonesia and Southeast Asia,although a move into the domestic market was expected.

    However, these plans were thrown into disarray in Feb-2009 when Brisbane-basedSkyAirWorld suspended operations, with GECAS repossessing all the carriers Embraeraircraft. The carrier reportedly owed creditors more than AUD36 million. Lion Air has not

    commented on its plans following SkyAirWorlds collapse.

    So, the question remains as to what exactly the carrier plans to do with all its aircraft. News

    of other potential cross-border JVs in Asia has ceased amid the global economic downturnbut as conditions improve, Lion Air may soon dust off its offshore expansion plans.

    Wings Air a 100% subsidiary of Lion Air

    Lion Air is also the parent company of Wings Air, which operates a domestic networkcovering 22 destinations. The fully-owned Lion Air subsidiary plans to continue to expand itsnetwork in Western Indonesia, following the launch of new routes in Central and EasternIndonesia.

    Wings Air plans to expand over the next two years, with the delivery by 2011 of 15 ATR 72-

    500 aircraft (the carrier has orders for 30 new aircraft). The carrier took delivery of the first

    three of the aircraft type in Jan-2010 and plans to use the aircraft to develop feeder routesto the main hubs and expand its network to remote areas of Indonesia. The aircraft will alsobe used to replace MD 80 aircraft on existing routes and increase frequencies on existingroutes operated with Lion Air B737-900ERs.

    Wings Air currently operates one ATR 72-500 in Western Indonesia, with two of the aircraftoperated in the Eastern and Central regions of the country (the carrier also operates twoBombardier Dash 8s and five MD-80s). The carrier recently launched Bandung-Yogyakarta,Yogyakarta-Surabaya and Surabaya-Semarang services in Feb2010, with future plans tolaunch Denpasar-Labuan Bajo, Denpasar-Maumere, Denpasar-Bima, Medan-Sibolga,Medan-Lhokseumawe, Medan-Gunungsitoli, Medan-Nias, Medan-Meulaboh and Padan-

    Garudas profit performance better than many others and anticipated to soar -but pressure intensified in the domestic market

    Surging competition on regional, domestic and short-haul international routes - from bothLCCs and full service carriers - has intensified the pressure on Garuda Indonesia.

    A long-time poor performer, Garuda has, however, enjoyed a return to form in recent yearsunder President Director, Emirsyah Satar. Under his leadership, Garuda implemented aBusiness Transformation Programme in 2005, which saw losses progressively reduced insubsequent years, until net profits returned in 2007, which was followed by a net profit of

    USD67 million in 2008. The carriers net and operating profit margins improved accordingly,to 3.7% and 5.6%, respectively, in 2008.

    The 2008 net profit was up ten-fold from 2007, as the result of better revenues (whichsoared 38%), improved traffic results (up to 10.3 million passengers, with an passengerload factor of 73%) and a successful effort to weed out corruption in the awarding ofcontracts.

    The 2008 net profit was, however, also assisted by the sale of Garudas corporate

    headquarters building in downtown Jakarta. Garuda also completed negotiations mid-year torestructure USD465 million in debts owed to the European Credit Agency (ECA). Under theagreement with the ECA, Garuda secured a seven-year extension on debt payments.

    Garuda has also benefited in that the global economic crisis had a minimal effect on theIndonesian economy, meaning that Garuda is seeing greater potential in the premiumtravel sector, compared with other markets where premium travel is on the decline.

    In 2009, Garuda Indonesia signed MoUs for corporate sales with 580 large companies in

    Indonesia, with total income reaching USD64.7 million (IDR600 billion), and recentlyconfirmed the conclusion of a corporate sales agreement with Shell Indonesia, as part of theairline's efforts to enhance service towards its corporate customers. In line with increases in

    capacity in 2010, the airline targets cooperation with 750 companies to secure a potential

    income of USD215.5 million (IDR2 trillion).

    66% increase in net profit expected in 2009; three fold increase by 2014

    Mr Satar stated the carrier expects to report a bumper net profit of approximately USD108

    million for 2009 (a 66% year-on-year increase), after handling 10.3 million passengers and106,000 tonnes of cargo.

    Mr Satar is bullish on his carriers financial future, stating the carrier is targeting a net profitof USD370 million by 2014, by increasing its fleet and expanding its route network.However, question marks remain over the sustainability of its profits over the short andmedium term, as Garuda attempts to fend off rising competition from Lion Air and the LCCs.There will be a huge influx in seats in Indonesia from next year.

    Garudas Quantum Leap" a high growth, high risk strategy

    In addition to this net profitability target, Garuda's five-year "Quantum Leap" strategy also

    contains several other ambitious growth targets. For example, the airline aims to increasethe number of international departures by more than 300% to 1,222 a week by 2014,expanding its destinations by some 51%.

    To more than double existing fleet

    As part of the Quantum Leap programme, Garuda Indonesia is planning a massive fleetrejuvenation and enhancement strategic, as part of which the carrier plans to more thandouble its current fleet of 67 aircraft to 116 aircraft over the next five years, based mainlyon B737-800NGs and A330-300/200s, which are operated on medium and long haul routes.The airline will also introduce ten B777-300ERs on new ultra long-range flights starting in2011 as it expands its international network.

    During 2010, Garuda plans to add ten domestic routes, and increase frequencies on regional

    services including Singapore and Hong Kong. The carrier added that it plans to developsecondary hubs in Indonesian major cities, in addition to its major hubs in Jakarta and

    Denpasar, as part of the 'Quantum Leap' programme. The secondary hubs would includecities such as Balikpapan in East Kalimantan, Medan in North Sumatra, Surabaya in EastJava and Makassar in South Sulawesi.

    Garuda has come a long way since commencing service in 1949 as Indonesias first carrierwith a single DC-3, growing to currently operate to more than 46 domestic and internationaldestinations. In 2008, Garuda aircraft provided 68,998 domestic services, 79.4% of thecompanys total main brand services, with 27 domestic routes.

    Following the Ministry of Transport of the European Union lifting the ban imposed on Garudaand other three Indonesian domestic carriers in Jul-2009, Garuda is planning to resumeflights to Europe by Jun-2010. Garuda aims to serve Amsterdam, Frankfurt and London,with the Dutch capital the first on the list (with Jakarta-Dubai-Amsterdam service). Garudafaces less direct competition in long-haul markets, so re-establishing itself in Europe andthe Middle East will be crucial for the airline in coming years.

    The carrier will initially deploy A330 aircraft on the Amsterdam route, but plans to take

    delivery of ten B777-300ERs from 2010 to allow the introduction of non-stop services toEurope.

    Mr Satar commented, we have set an aggressive five-year growth strategy for the airlinethat will allow Garuda to take its place alongside other leading international airlines in theAsia Pacific region. Establishing a strong presence in Europe is an important element of

    meeting these targets.

    As a renewed starter in the field, Garuda is sure to feel the weight of heavy competition thatfast-growing Middle East and other established Asian hub carriers will provide, and this willmean the prospects of profits could be elusive.

    In other network news, Garuda Indonesia reportedly plans to resume Denpasar-KualaLumpur and Medan-Kuala Lumpur services by Sep-2010, stating it has landing rights in

    Kuala Lumpur and plans to apply for slots in mid-2010. The carrier suspended the servicesin 2004, due to a lack of demand. Garuda currently achieves load factors of approximately70% on its Jakarta-Kuala Lumpur route.

    Garuda wins approval to restructure debt ahead of IPO

    The carrier added that its long-running debt restructuring is almost complete, with plans toconduct an IPO on the Jakarta Stock Exchange in 3Q2010, in line with expectedimprovements in global macro-economic conditions. The carrier has already receivedapproval from parliament to float up to 40% of its shares and plans to raise USD300 million

    to support the carriers long-term growth plans. It will also increase the transparency of thecarriers operations.

    100% of the carriers debtors accepted Garudas financial restructuring in Jan-2010, with

    the approval paving the way for the carriers IPO. As part of the restructure, the carrier has

    reduced its debt by over USD45 million, significantly strengthening the carriers balancesheet. The carriers debts, as at Dec-2008, stood at USD570 million, as follows:

    European Credit Agency: USD465 million reorganisation completed in mid-2009; Bank Mandiri: USD100 million in mandatory convertible bonds; Unnamed creditor in Singapore: USD130 million in floating rate notes;

    Other: USD45 million.

    Garuda Executive VP Finance, Eddy Porwanto, commented that the agreement represented

    a very important milestone for us, adding that having completed our debt restructuring,we will be in a much better position in terms of our balance sheet for the IPO.

    However, a key concern is maintaining operational efficiency amid rising fuel prices (the

    carrier expects its aviation turbine fuel consumption to increase 20% this year, to 1.2 billionlitres). In reaction to this, Garuda signed an MoU with Pertamina in Feb-2010 to secure fuelsupplies from the company for Garudas overseas operations at a considerably lower price,at destinations including Dubai, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong and Singapore. Garudaexpects the MoU to cover 80% of its fuel requirements in foreign countries.

    Garuda Indonesia aims for SkyTeam membership

    Improving the airlines product is now a central focus. Mr Satar commented that the carrieris lacking a distinct uniqueness, with the carrier currently undergoing a branding exercise

    to create a new service culture for Garuda Indonesia based on the traditions and values ofIndonesian hospitality.

    A bigger step however was Garudas plans, announced in Jul-2008, to join the SkyTeam

    Alliance, having secured a commitment by cooperation partner and SkyTeam founding

    member, Korean Air, to endorse the Indonesian airlines application.

    Membership of SkyTeam, which includes Aeroflot, Aeromexico, Air France-KLM, Alitala,China Southern, Czech Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Korean Air and Vietnam Airlines(pending), would be a major boost for Garuda.

    In Nov-2009, Air France-KLM Group President, Pierre Gourgeon, added that it is verypleased to support the candidacy of Garuda, a long-standing partner of ours in Asia, butadded that the process would take a year until Garudas official entry, meaning a possible2011 entry into the alliance. Mr Satar added, the soonest, the better.

    Considering to launch a separate LCC subsidiary? Future of Citilink remainsunclear

    Another critical strategic issue for Garuda is its reaction to the current low cost threat in theIndonesian market. Garuda is reportedly considering plans to launch a separate LCCsubsidiary, Citilink, by the end of 2010, to defend and grow its share of the domestic and

    short-haul international markets. Mr Satar, in Feb-2010, stated the carrier would operate

    approximately 20 aircraft, including some of Garudas older B737s.

    The carrier currently operates a low fare unit (also branded Citilink) service on certain

    domestic routes, but its future is unclear, as the mainline operation looks to significantlyexpand its own short-haul network over the coming 12-18 months.

    Citilink currently operates three B737-300s from its parent from its base in Surabaya.Citilink was established in 2001 and currently operates to Balikpapan, Banjarmasin, Batam,Ujungpandang and Jakarta. The units operation has been reduced from its peak in 2005 ofthree B737-300s and six Fokker F28s, as the Group has refreshed its fleet.

    Implementation of the LCC strategy will be crucial, and it remains to be seen how much

    autonomy the budget unit will be given by its parent.

    Citilink is one of the carriers four strategic business units (also including Garuda Sentra

    On international routes, the picture is quite different, as the LCC sector is performingstrongly (driven by growth by Indonesia AirAsia, Jetstar Asia, Tiger Airways and MalaysiaAirAsia), having doubled their capacity share over the past two years. This is largely due tothe easing of restrictions on foreign LCCs by the Indonesian Government from serving thecountrys four main gateways, as well as the growth of home-based LCCs expanding

This network has beenreworked to enable the carrier to benefit from Adam Airs exit from the market and to focuson historically successful routes to cities where Mandala was strong in the 1990s and early

    2000s.

    Mandala Airlines was founded in 1967 and commenced services in 1969 at a time when

    Indonesia was re-building an economy devastated by political and economic problems.

    Mandala, owned by the Army (Kostrad), was in the 1990s the market leader on manyroutes.

    However, following de-regulation of the aviation industry in 2002, Mandala, as a legacycarrier, self-admittedly was slow to react to the new environment, and could not competewith the new start up airlines. In 2005, a crash by a B737 soon after take off resulted in the

    loss of almost 130 passengers and people on the ground, placing further pressure on theairline.

    Along with growing concerns about the business influence of the military, this led to therequirement for Mandala Airlines to be sold. The airline was sold to Cardig International inApr-2006 who in turn sold 49% to leading LCC investor, Indigo Partners. Both investors

    recognized the huge potential of Indonesias growing market and the requirement for awell-run modern generation airline.

    Mandala Airlines key investors

    Source: Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation and Mandala Airlines

    The acquisition of Mandala by specialist investors heralded a period of significant change,

    commencing with the rebranding of the airline and the addition of two Airbus A320 to thefleet and a change in strategy to position itself in the low cost market as a safe airline withyoung fleet and successful IATA and manufacturers safety audits. The strategic goal is togrow Mandala Airlines into one of the leading airlines in Indonesia and the region.

    Mandala currently operates its extensive network across Indonesia utilising a fleet of twoA319s and seven A320s. With 30 aircraft on order, Mandala expects to grow its fleet by25% per year. While no traffic results have been published, the carrier was targeting 8-9million passengers in 2009, an 80% year-on-year increase from 2008, which was up 50%

    on 2007.

    Positive outlook for rapidly-expanding Indonesia AirAsia in 2010, despite losses

    in 4Q2009

    Another key, and growing LCC, in the Indonesian market is AirAsia Group subsidiary,Indonesia AirAsia. Established as private airline, Awair (Air Wagon International), servicescommenced operations in 2000 but were suspended in 2002 due to financial problems. InNov-2004 AA International Limited, 99.8% owned by AirAsia, acquired a 49.0% of Awairand re-launched it in late 2004, changing its name to Indonesia AirAsia in 2005. It focusesmore on the international market than Mandala, with services to countries includingAustralia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thaland.

    AirAsia Group, upon the release of 4Q2009/FY2009 financial results, stated Indonesias

    outlook for 1Q2010 is positive with encouraging passenger growth and unit cost

    improvements, adding that a platform for sustained profitability has been established.

    Indonesia AirAsia, however, reported losses in 4Q2009, with an EBITDAR loss of USD4.8million. The carriers 4Q2009 operating and net results were also in the red, of USD4.0

    anticipated in 2010, with cost improvements also expected, as the carrier transitions to asingle-aircraft fleet.

    However, the Indonesian Government, last year, introduced a law requiring all scheduledairlines to have a minimum fleet of ten aircraft by Jan-2012 - and that carriers must own

    some aircraft, rather than relying entirely on leases. This law, coupled with the intense

    competition in the Indonesian market, could result in further carrier consolidation, withsmaller players forced to either merge or close down.

    All of the Indonesian carriers are based in Jakarta, with the exception of Riau Airlines,making Jakarta the largest domestic and international hub in the country.

    Outlook: Strong growth ahead, but will profits follow?

    Indonesia is entering its most exciting aviation development phase since the 2002deregulation of the domestic market. A revitalised flag carrier, the presence of two LCCswith outstanding international pedigree and a fast-charging private carrier makes for ahighly dynamic market place.

    The countrys fleet profile is set to grow rapidly over the next 12 months, with capacitylevels soaring from 2011-2015, according to current orders. This will create enormous

    competitive tension in the market, and yields are expected to come under pressure, even inan improving economic environment. In turn, profitability may have peaked in Indonesia

    during the past couple of years of relative capacity restraint.
