BIG DOG
To the core group of MH loyalists, the
swap was a betrayal of the worst kind. A sell-out to the very foe they
have sacrificed everything to defeat. To many who have spent decades
with the airline, it was the realisation of something unthinkable.
Needless to say, morale sank to an all
time low. Unions met, tempers flared and options were discussed. And
finally, after much painful deliberation and reflection, even the most
ardent of MAS loyalists decided that for them, it was over.
And so they have opted to leave. Within the three weeks after the Fernandes-engineered lop-sided share swap was announced, THREE HUNDRED senior cabin crew members threw in the towel and left.
