Now that,Andy RR, me old chum, has hit the nail right on the head. Its not about the product, its about the lack of guts on the part of our fearless leaders to protect a product that we can clearly do well. How long will the FOC on Qantas remain in place? I suspect it is all going to get too hard for Krudd & Co so they will just let it go. Instead of being the good old easygoing Aussie, I think it is about time we got a little mercenary and started protecting what we can, while we can, and value-adding in country is the way to go.
