Ivan,. .. .What a twisted mind you have! CX management has been proven to be bad, it has nothing to do with race. I made no mention of race. In fact I stated and I quote 'the locals are a great lot in general'.. .. .MJ,. .. .Glad to hear that things have got better since I left but then how would you know when that would have been? There have been many pilots that have left KA over the years, all through dissatisfaction.. .. .The cost of living is high in Hong Kong and a B scale salary is devisive and does not go very far. Life style, what life style?
