Swires will sell if it suits them.

I have mentioned before on this forum that in the mid 1980s at a pilot-management meeting, as we had in those days, Sir (then Mr) Adrian Swire mused over a question that he didn't think Swires would be involved in aviation after 2025. I was fascinated at the clarity of forward planning that such a statement implied.

There is a future for aviation in Hong Kong, and for most people that want to be involved in it. As we all know, there is not a future for A scale expatriate staff. The cheese has been moved, and we have to realise that there is no "Cathay" left. There will be a selection of low cost airlines and one or two larger entities with slightly higher remuneration.

The very best to you in 2021.
