What we could do to help the decision:

Dear all,

now all of you pilots under threat of getting a paycut pay attention.

What we can do:

1. Get all our friends who are considering the agencies to retract their applications. Tell them the truth about higher cost of living and the impact of reducing our pay.

2. Contact whoever we can on the Vietnamese Govt, Embassy, VNA mgt etc to ask them to do something about it. Spread the word. It is as much a political game as any. If you have influence with any PRESS get them to write about this.

3. Pledge never to support the individual who proposed this in his or her endeavour to rise in the ranks of the airline. If there is another upcoming Vietnamese leader, support him. Enemy of my enemy is my friend.

4. Keep finding stuff to fault his decision and by George Publish it.

5. Operations is not the only cost centre many other departments are the true cause of losing money.
-Less passengers actually means marketing has failed.
-Fuel price hike means purchasing has failed to hedge the prices when it was low. ie no insight.
-I dont need to say how pilferage affects the company.
GIVE THEM REASON TO PUNISH OTHER DEPARTMENTS NOT THE PILOTS.

Not all involved can afford to lose their jobs, so we all need to be understanding and WORK TOGETHER on this.

We should start doing this as soon as possible.

IN GOD WE TRUST
