We should be comparing ourselves with equivalent airlines which originate from countries which have similar standards of living, not some third world airlines which fly in there labour from even poorer states. The Americans but more equally the Europeans and Singapore but never the ME carriers. Hired foreign help is not a fair comparison and we have to stop thinking that they are the benchmark. Perhaps our Government should be raising some serious human rights abuses that are known to occur in the UAE but then who are we to talk when we have the disgrace which is Mannus Island.
