Cyril,
What makes you think 6000 Indians with the bare minimum experience required for a CPL and no real world airline experience are worthy of working at any airline much less Cathay?

Many people (myself included) had to flight instruct, fly night freight, banner tow, pipeline patrol, and traffic watch just to get a foot in the door at an airline flying regional jets and turboprops. Your and other Indians sense of entitlement in regards to airline employment is insulting to those of us who spent years and thousands of hours doing the less than desirable flying before getting on at an airline of the caliber of Cathay Pacific.
