The little napoleons in Khazanah love COLLABORATION/CCF so are the babies!
In PART 1 we stopped at the sorry state of Rural Air Service (RAS) and Fly Asian Express Sdn Bhd (now AirAsia X) where six aircraft were grounded due to un-airworthiness and another one was cannibalised for spare parts, and how MAS was left to pickup the pieces thereafter. Continue reading
In September 2013, AirAsia A320 undergoing maintenance works in MAS Hangar No: 5 in KLIA. In May 2012 Tony Fernandes said AirAsia will not send its aircraft to MAS for maintenance.

It took MAS 10 hours to hold a press conference to announce that MH 370 was missing. MAS could have easily ascertained the status of MH 370 when it did not arrive in Beijing at 6:30 am 8-3-2014 as scheduled. Further, MH 730 has fuel to fly up to about 8:30 am. By 9:00 am, if not earlier, MAS should have been able to make a public announcement that MH 370 was missing but MAS chose to drag its feet until 12 noon. Continue reading
Chronology of events of Day 1

“Stay focused” says AJ. “Stay Focus” to look after the interest of other airline? It seems that now MH stands for “Maruah Hilang” & “Musnah Harapan”!
Yours truly went to the same mamak stall for a teh tarik this noon and someone has just passed the e-mail entitled “Stay Focused In Our Journey” from MAS Group CEO, which is still warm from the oven. Continue reading
MAS with new livery after the Mas -AirAsia share “suap”. The cost of this new livery was part of “cost cutting” to MAS under AJ.
MAS livery before the MAS-AirAsia share ‘suap”. It doesn’t look “profitable” to AJ and his MASTER during the “share suap”.
En Ahmad Jauhari Yahya (AJ), the Group CEO of MAS and his top management have been bragging that MAS has managed to get more passengers to travel on MAS. Of course, the numbers game was the brainchild of AJ and his “Bollywood and Hollywood stars“. What is the point of gaining more passengers with no yield recorded except another loss of RM375 for the 3rd quarter of 2013 (July to September). Any person with modicum of intelligence could get the numbers over night if one just to embark on slashing of the fares with no other plans in hand.
