By EK! UL'l be sorry .....

Just back from CMB ... talk on the street is that there will be a divorce in April of Emirates and Sri Lankan Airways .... the Government will take over the management however EK will maintain the 43% satake in UL and have a seat on the board.....

Details to come however it would seem the Sri Lanakan Government are determined to tak back back control where they can even if thay cannot buy out the EK stake yet .........some judicious funding maybe out there .....

Watch the news pages for information .......

So results are so far ....... T.C. Lark & G. Hardman 0
Sri Lankan Government 1/2 point

No winners in this .... especially us pax !
