Perhaps it would be wise if the DFOs would stop reading the works of Chairman Mao. Or at least thinking that in any way they might apply to running an airline.
A great purge of folks you need to run the toys, without that great young talent having been developed into experienced pilots ain't gonna work. And the young talent you might get probably won't forget being stuffed in a cracker box to live when it wises up and realizes it has been cutting its own throat for the job that never will be. So you aren't getting gratitude and allegiance; simply paycheck workers using the place as a stepping stone and/or sow wild oats running around Asia. In a place with particularly costly and onerous training and regulatory requirements.
