I think you will find this in a Harvard University Business School course in a few years.

Whilst corporate atrophy is not a new phenomenon, it is probably a first for a corporation that was basically hit in the arse with a rainbow and should still be counting the profits of that luck every day.

Hong Kong- perfect hub, great destination in itself and and all-around success story. Not to mention having the authorities in your pocket.

Why we will see this end very badly is simply that the bridge is manned by people who have no decision-making authority. At least that is their excuse because no one will stand up to Barnaby et al. Typical 19th Century feudalism meets the real world with all those still on the gravy train trying to reach Victoria Station before the derailment.

There is no way on God's Little Earth that management will be able to react in any meaningful way to the reality of the market.
