CAD head "tunnel vision & bureaucratic mindset" Slot Capacity at HKIA & hiring expats

Int eresting political column by Albert Cheng in SCMP on 22nd November.
Basically he says
a)DG Norman Lo refuses to confront the problem of shortage of Controllers at HKIA
b) Lo does not understand the problems of runway slot capacity at the airport caused by shortage of controllers
c) Lo does not understand because he is a bureaucrat with tunnel vision and bureaucratic mindset
d) Eventually because of deferred leave , overtime and genuine grudges against the CAD some will crack under pressure or fatigue.
e) the immediate solution is to recruit first rate experienced controllers from outside Hong Kong
