A certain Mr Au ( alias chief muppet ) was quoted in the paper today: on the subject of sacking 6 flight attendants :

" Its only 5% of our total workforce of 440 staff "

Ex-squeeze me ?

Baking powder ?

a ) 5% of 440 was not 6 where I went to school and b) 440 staff for 6 aeroplanes you have to be frigging joking

Also the clowns that have a major stake in your piece of crap operation, owe the mainland airports millions of $.
I can still remember the sales pitch " We are owned by Hainan, they have plenty of money ". Yeh, well I hope they have more money than the other big 3 mainland operators, 1 of which is pratically insolvent and all 3 begging for massive handouts ( and getting them ) from the government.
