However, due to lengthy pending approval of Cambodia Cabinet, operation of the Company had to be suspended. In August 2000, the Cambodian Air Co., Ltd. obtained approval from the Cambodia Cabinet to operate domestic air transportation in Cambodia. By virtue of such approval, the Company was required to rename to Siem Reap Airways International Co., Ltd. An application for change of name has been lodged with Commercial Department together with the increase in its capital to 95 million riels.

Introduction
The origins of Bangkok Airways can be traced back to 1968 and a company known as Sahakol Air, which was initially set an air taxi service operating a Trade wind, a twin-engine, ten-seat aircraft during the Vietnam War. The assignments came from Overseas International Construction Company (OICC), an American construction company known as United States Operations Mission (USOM) and a number of other organizations engaged in oil and natural gas exploration in the Gulf of Thailand. In Cambodia, we fly to Phnom Penh and Angkor Wat (Siem Reap).

In choosing new destinations, Bangkok Airways invariably considers cities with rich cultures and historically important sites, which are not easily accessible to the everyday traveler. This underlines the airline's commitment to help local tourism industries develop their full potential and to promote the local heritage.

Thai Airways International

Thai Airways International was founded in 1960 as a joint venture between Thailand's domestic carrier, Thai Airways Company (TAC) and Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) with the Scandinavian carrier initially providing a 30% share capital of two million Baht. SAS also provided operations, managerial and marketing expertise, with training assistance aiming at building a fully independent national airline within the shortest possible time. Thai nationals, through training and experience, were gradually able to assume full managerial responsibility and the number of expatriate staff duly reduced until, in 1987, expatriates accounted for less than one percent of staff based in Thailand.

In 1960, flights were inaugurated from Bangkok to 9 overseas destinations all within the Asian region. Intercontinental services were launched in 1971, to Australia, followed by flights to Europe in 1972, and to North America in 1980. Thai Airways International growth was greatly accelerated on April 1, 1988 as a result of its merger with Thai Airways Company (TAC), the domestic airline, which raised the Company's share capital from 1,400 million to 2,230 million Baht. Thai Airways International can now rightfully be called Thailand's only national carrier.

Vietnam Airlines

Since reclaiming Gia Lam Airport from the French over 47 years ago, Vietnam civil aviation industry has grown steadily into one of the country most vibrant economic sectors, and the national carrier - Vietnam Airlines ・is now poised to become a major regional airline.

Vietnam Airlines・ history dates back to 1956. Starting with a fleet of only five small aircraft, the first international route was to Beijing, followed by Vientiane in 1976 and Bangkok in 1978.

In April 1989, the airline was established as a state enterprise, and in 1996 Vietnam Airlines Corporation was formed, bringing together several service companies with the airline at its core. The corporation is run by a six-seat management board whose members are appointed by the prime minister.

In 2002, Vietnam Airlines carried some four million passengers and 60,000 tons of cargo. At the end of the year we unveiled our new logo, the Golden Lotus.
