Well, Maybe we don't exactly have the company on the ropes, but IMHO, calling off the PIA like this certainly lands them a good blow right in their
PR's
!
As well as gaining public "goodwill" in the immediate term, it makes our case when we do take PIA for "safety reasons" so much more credible.
With the added advantage of making QF look like the "baddies" for out-sourcing their maintenance to places like Singapore.
Don't forget, that this will of also allowed us to of stored up a couple of "brownie points" in the halls of government and media.
IMHO, we had no option but to call off the PIA, but as an added bonus, doing so makes us look like the "good guys" !
Two-thumbs-up !!
