The government will provide RM50 million in matching grants to support aerospace components development, Minister of Finance Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz said.

He said the area surrounding KLIA Sepang would be developed as an aerospace industry cluster, especially for maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO)
