The US and it's successful business model accounts for just under a quarter of Global GDP yet is less than 5% of the worlds population.
China has 9.5% of global GDP yet is heading towards 20% of worlds population. It is not a democracy and has a history of machine gunning democracy protesters. But as usual the savants on here pay no attention and direct their scorn west...must be great to be Chinese (unless you live in Tibet) ... model nation.
One note on aviation....each year the EK CRM dept put up a slide on accidents per 100,000 or is it 1,000,000?.,, Can't remember ...anyhow the accident rate on the numeric for N.America is .04, for Europe it's 100% higher at .08.., the rest of the world is considerably higher..with Africa & Latin America Of particular note. oz is coupled with Asia, so hard to tell.
Anyway contrary to Sitty's mad theories the numbers don't lie. Incidentally he had no problem pitching up for his 14 week bonus and 12% pay raise last May given out by what he describes as atrocious mgt.
Sitty please give us the name of three long haul international airlines that have great mgt.
Eagerly standing by.
