AirAsia is also evaluating its operations in Japan and will make a decision very soon, the company's spokeswoman said Tuesday. Its India venture remains as is, she said without elaborating. The airline is looking to consolidate and strengthen its business in Southeast Asia, even if that means exiting Japan and India, Reuters reported earlier. AirAsia said last month that it needs to reach agreements with major creditors to restructure outstanding debt because it faces "severe liquidity constraints" that threaten its ability to resume flying and continue as a going concern. The long-haul budget unit and its AAX Leasing Two Ltd. have received a claim from BOC Aviation Ltd. regarding $23 million of outstanding amounts due under lease agreements, according to an exchange filing Friday. AirAsia X, which said it is seeking legal advice, leases four aircraft from BOC.
