BULLISH ON AUSTRALIA

This is from the Strait Times- Singapore

The first part of the Article was very similar to that of the article from the Australian.

Dr Cheong says SIA is keen on having a permanent presence ''because the Australian market is extremely important to us. And by presence, we mean more than just flying more frequencies to the capital cities''.

He declines to say if SIA might invest in Qantas if rival British Airways withdraws from the Australian carrier.

''I can only say that in this funny business, anything is possible and I wouldn't rule out anything,'' he says.
