KAL facing a slowdown?

Heard from reliable sources that KAL had lost some 30% of their cargo business in China.

Another more disturbing news is that their recent, unreported conflict with the big chaebol Samsung with respect to carriage of Samsung " ready as required " on time shipping of their products; apparently Samsung has sworned off using KAL services ever again!

There are rumours that many B744 expat pilots' contracts will not be renewed and people are scrambling to get an A320 rating to get a foot into Chinese Airlines currently paying much more flying the baby bus in the Chinese mainland.
