A aircraft tug pushes this Air Asia A320-251N away from the terminal just as its pilot starts the port engine, followed by the starboard engine.
Technically, a jet aircraft like this Airbus can power back from the gate on its own using the full power of its engines in reverse thrust mode, but in practice no commercial airlines ever do so for safety reasons.
This plane was destined for a three hour, overwater flight to Hong Kong (Flight AK239).
