Hey ljjthegreat,

hmm thanks for pondering over my statement. To me, CAAS protecting Singaporeans does make a difference despite our small no. of airlines. We just had a chap here who's in a Sg LCC but he disappeared after being exposed that he's a Msian?

And we have many Msians in SIA. Are we self sponsored really worse than Msian SIA cadets? I beg to differ...only thing being that at the point of interview, we fared worse.

Etihad Airways actually took the SIA route by offering cadetship to all nationalities a while back but scrapped the plan as locals complained of the lack of opportunities given inwards. Oh well, it's SIA's and the LCC's prerogative to offer jobs to so called perceived better talents. However, I cannot help but lament and feel unloved by my own country.

So good luck anyway in your endeavours. Dream big

Sorry, didn't mean to sound discouraging at all...that was just my point of view. I can't be totally sure so anyway, cheers and gd luck!
