A powerful leader appeared in this month’s (November) World Airnews, written by Kevin Barker. Unfortunately their website is down so I can’t cut and paste it.
In it he says he wants SAA CEO Khaya Ngqula’s job. What a pleasure it would be to have a high flying job which did not require him to worry about anything — and why should he when, to date, the airline has been baled out to the tune of R13,74-billion over the last five years. During the same period, says the article, Ngqula has pocketed R20-million (I think that’s conservative).
He goes on to commiserate with the private carriers who have to make a profits to pay taxes to keep SAA airborne.
He ends thus: “Contrary to what was said two months ago, the minister has rubbished allegations that SAA needs another R2.8-billion again! Time will tell.”
Indeed it will, Kevin indeed it will.
