REFERENCES 21EXECUTIVE SUMMARYThis report is about the SWOT analysis review of Air Asia mainly on its internal environment. Through internet research, we have gathered information about Air Asia and analysed how it has affected Air Asia’s product and service since it started as a business. We have used internet for all the research and the information is gathered from online articles, online journals videos, online annual report of Air Asia etc. The main topics covered are SWOT, 4P’s of the marketing mix, VRIO framework (brand, organizational structure etc.) The reason why we chose this topic is because Air Asia has a very interesting history about how the founder built it over the years. Today, it is the world’s largest low-cost carrier and has accomplished the trust and loyalty of so many customers. What is even more thrilling being how the low cost is maintained despite its many obstacles such as the rising economy and the way Tony Fernandez has managed to navigate the company through its ups and downs. Not only that, we really adore him on how he cares for his employees and want them to be happy as they work.
