Industry experts foresee an overall production downturn in the year 2000. On the basis of announced manufacturing rates, 1999 was expected to be the peak year in total aircraft production, with the global industry delivering about 920 jets. The outlook for 2000 is estimated to be below 1999 levels, with about 800 jets expected to be delivered. U.S. production of large civilian transports was expected to reach about 620 aircraft in 1999 and about 480 in 2000.
In the early years of the twenty-first century, technology may take a back seat to efficiency. Rather than creating entirely new passenger aircraft that will fly faster, higher, and farther on less fuel, large aircraft manufacturers are more likely to modify existing designs; this will reduce production costs, pollutants, and noise and add more seats. Stiff price competition between Boeing and Airbus will continue.
U.S. government funding for aeronautical research and development decreased significantly with the cancellation in 1999 of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) funding for the High Speed Research and Aviation Subsonic Technology programs.
One of the most significant new influences on twenty-firstcentury aircraft will be the environment. Next-generation and future aircraft will be required to meet new and increasingly more stringent environmental protection requirements for engine emissions in keeping with the U.S. Clean Air Act and the Kyoto Protocol.
Fair trade principles should stimulate new services in the twenty-first-century air transport market. Improved market access would promote greater freedom for developing commerce, particularly among the three largest trading partners: North America, Europe, and Japan (see Tables 21-4 and 21-5). Air traffic is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 5 percent through 2005.
The industry has had a gradual expansion, especially in productivity, increasing the number of firms approximately 7% in the 5 year period between 1997 and 2002, but shedding about 18,000 workers in the same period - or almost 19% (see chart below)
According to the latest survey by MasterCard Worldwide, some 61% of consumers in Malaysia are planning to make a charitable donation in the next six months.
Interestingly, a larger proportion of women in Malaysia (69%) are looking to donate than men (53%) in the coming 6 months.
Consumers between the age of 30-44 years (64%) and 18-29 years (60%) appear to be more generous as compared to their older counterparts aged 45 and above (57%).
Moreover, single consumers appear to be just as likely to donate to a worthy cause as married consumers (61%).
These were the findings from a bi-annual MasterCard consumer survey conducted between March and April 2010. A total of 10,920 consumers in 24 markets were surveyed on their plans to make a charitable donation in the following 6 months.
Other highlights from the survey include:
* Fewer Malaysian consumers are planning to make a charitable contribution in the next six months. 61% of Malaysian consumers plan to make a charitable contribution in the next six months, down from 65% six months ago.
