If the local contract is similar to the one in SLK or TGW, it's not that bad. You still earn something in the 160 - 200 k S$ range. The only thing that's missing is the housing and the schooling fees. If you don't have a bunch of children, you wont realise it.
You also get CPF, medical and the bonus.
OK, it's not the same as it used to be, but it's still good. Problem was that those old expat contracts where too good...

Yup. It was a Romeo series a/c.
If nobody was injured or if this news wasn't reported by a news network, they will not put it in their website. No airline will openly reveal every single screwup that happens on a daily basis.
where u hear that from? not mentioned on SQ web

If you just do some quick checking on SQ Web portal using KUL station as a start, it won't take you couple more clicking to get to the crew involved. It seemed like they do have nightstop in KUL, which I believe is non existent in our COP.

From what's shown on the web, it's non training. And manned by expat skipper judging by the staff number. And you're spot on regarding grounding part, it's gonna be tough on the crew.

Most probably there will be no bonus next year.
1 day No Pay leave + .0.6 of a One day salary . + No Monthly Variable Allowance (10%) + No bonus = 30 to 40 % less Income for Fiscal Year 2009 than Fiscal Year 2007.

SIA Cargo
The Monthly Variable Component(10% of the basic salary) has been withdrawn for the last 2 months (june and july)without making too much noise,and apparently even with a 70% load factor(cargo) during the last month,it will go on till the end of the year.Yields are not good enough,for those who understand.(I don't)
Let's see what will happen for the months of october,november and december,which are the most productive of the year.
Really tough time...
