Can’t help but think that the two Malaysian posters on this site have seen what their recently retired PM got away with for years on the world stage in blaming ‘whites’ for every problem he and his cronies ever had and they’ve made the mistake of thinking such tosh will wash here.
The good Doctor M. could get away with the rubbish he peddled in the UN and the New Straits Times because he was dealing with diplomats and small ‘l’ liberals who still seem to think ‘allowances’ have to be made for the ‘poor, oppressed people’ of ex-colonies who are still ‘suffering’ – 50 *** years after most of their countries achieved or were granted independence – from the ‘depredations’ which continue to be ‘inflicted’ upon their countries by the ‘neo-colonists’ (give me strength – the biggest depredations inflicted upon such countries post-independence are usually done so by the native born leadership of said countries.).
EK has its faults, but racial discrimination within the expatriate pilot ranks is definitely not one of them (although everyone hates the Brits. Just joking). If, as an expat pilot, you can jump through the hoops the company sets for all applicants for a particular job, before or after you are employed, you are employed or promoted whatever your skin colour or accent is.
If the posters who ‘know’ how racist and ‘white-dominated’ EK is, why in the world do they want join a company where they ‘know’ they’ll be so unfairly treated because of the colour of their skin? Seems to me someone’s failed Logic 101.
– or perhaps CRM 101.
