There are a lot of places facing double digit percentage traffic rises with nothing for it.How are you going to stop more traffic?It just appears.
More expats is the only short term fix.At least the locals would get leave as well,and it is possible within current Civil service rules.

it seems an easy solution to hire the expats again. however, before that, approval from CSB, interviews, settlement, training... how long do they take? why not, ask those high-paid Twr-rated only Gweilo and the 'exception' to have a training/conversion of Radar control?? it sounds easier than hiring the expats again.
