Things at Jetstar Asia obviously weren't working the way that Qantas wanted and AJ flew to Singapore in January to sort things out. He was prepared to pull out of the operation (including the "Jetstar" name) if he couldn't get his way. He needed to get Temasek out as they had a conflict of interest with ownership of SQ and its subsidiaries - Silk Air & Tiger. It looks like he got his way with Dennis Choo owning the necessary 51% to retain its status as a "Singaporean Carrier" and Qantas owning the rest (& providing all the management input).
