KLM self interest

Beyond the disinclination to hire well qualified local pilots, which is racist and nothing else, is the lack of a comprehensive local network predicated on development of the people and resources of Kenya for posterity. Just look across the border at Ethiopia, or Nigeria in the seventies, when their heads were screwed the right way, to see what I mean. But KLM is in it for the money, period, and so, this sort of investment in Kenya's' future doesn't stand a chance, unfortunately.
