Hi Wooblah, the reason why he is still in the game is that he is like a hyaena...kill the small ones and grovel at the feet of his superiors. The classic coward but a big bully.
If people all stand up to such bullies, they will shrink away, but MAS and ex-MAS people are too weak and yellow!
Of course he has his own hunting packs, fellow low lifes helping and supporting him. So be tough and despatch these miscreants to their rightful place amongst human trash heap.

As far as MAS is concerned I think morale has sunk to a new low. There was a glimmer of hope a couple of years ago but things have gone pear shape again! As for MAPA leadership, the voices calling for caution are very wise. I do know the current mob running the show and I do know they harbour great ambitions ala the camel! Be forewarned is to be forearmed.

Hello Wooblah,

A case is still on going in the court of law. As of now, the M of U is in the hand of the judge, It's part of the evidance document that the court accepted for this particular case. Otherwise, it would have been thrown out long time ago. So, I won't say it's a piece of toilet paper as you have said. This is something good to MAPA members.

Hi Captain Wooblah: I know what you mean, I had always thought that the MOU was just a book to be more like a guide.
However,
I have been told that the MAS pilots MOU is a contract and is binding on all parties and will hold in court. They have apparently checked with the lawyers. I guess a test case would be good eh. he he.itch itch.
I think its about time the guys here test the system. The number of violations is ridiculous.
I also see the points made about Captains sons in the system through the cadet programme. Hmm....different points of view I guess. I actually would love it if my son could follow in my footsteps if he so chooses.
While I have flown with some gentlemen ( Capts sons ) as mentioned earlier.......I guess there is and will be some where the acorn did actually fall not too far off the tree.
After reading this thread..... I have found an all new level of respect for the G string. Yeah.....he sure screwed things up.
Point to note as well........ There was a "team" involved in MAPA signing the FRCL off. Heard that "mismangement" was offered something after he put his signature on the piece of paper. Then again......there was de "Charma" involved as well. You bet I was upset. Was one of the earlier ones to go EY.
Raj..... you really think even this bunch of guys are going to do the hat trick. That will be real sad for us guys here at MH , who are not voting with our feet.
Once bitten twice shy.I am nearly ten times shy now bro. Just how do we spot them. How on earth are we going to pick the right people to lead MAPA.
Was there ever a time when the leadership @ MAPA was good.
cheers!

Mapa membership number
 

Hi Tiger, you must to able to confirm once and for all whether g-string twisted arms to acquire a more prestigious lower membership number of a retiree as alluded in the Jet Airways Recruitment in Malaysia thread.

Paishinel, you want the truth? The answer is YES. I knew the number he took...but I wish to leave it as it is.
Anyway, MAPA is still important to MH guys. It's up to the members to make it a strong and respected entity. If MAPA is down, it's the members' fault. I won't blame those guys using MAPA as stepping stone for personal gain as the members are the one that allowed such thing to happen. You have the VOTING POWER. Use it wisely...of course if only you are wise.:cool:

Aha, leaving things as it is becomes part of the malaise someone had pointed out. MAS people accept this sort of crap and the management plus their stinking bedfellow pilots will continue to dish out crap. The obvious condoning of unhealthy practices posted on another thread on corruption and nepotism in MAS is appalling to say the least.

g-string
 

Heard from a former colleague now in KAL that the g-string thingy has something to do with a word pun rhyming with the guy's user name. Can any one in kimchi land confirm?

the truth
 

Tiger, thanks for being up front with the truth now. If the truth had been known earlier, many of the blind would have seen that pariah in a different light. What a cheap fake? Mapa prez cheating to look good with a more " senior " membership number:ugh::ugh::ugh:

Weren't Capt. klepto and camel both done in by g-string up in SEL? Heard from someone gstring squealed to KAL mgmt about klepto after feting him to a dinner? Alteon Korea was alerted to camel's presence to be chopped. Camel & gstringh...must have been some snake fight!

Bollywood fling?
 

Well not real bollywood but underground ( black market ) bollywood. There are a lot of " comfort " ladies masquerading as bollywood stars or wannabes. Mind you, they look dishy but can be quite trashy. Many foreign " richies " are caught unaware but there are savvy ones who fool their friends with these birdies...their naive friends go " whoa " at these dishies. Great to have them hanging around at your parties tho' for cheap thrills!

bollywood comforter?
 

Righto! Bollywood comforters! Well at I.I's 50th birthday bash some 8 years ago I did see one of these comforters hanging onto g-stringh...it was indeed a lame droopy attempt to impress but I think quite a few were wise to that!

Tiger...naming and shaming that creep at the time when he twisted arms to get the MAPA " seniority " number then might have save the FOs their travel privileges as he wouldn't have been so brazen. I wished MAS pilots had been more informed and made better choices then.

Was told that Capt. Klepto was indeed done in by g-stringh, not sure about camel...wouldn't be surprised if he indeed did it.

Aha! gstring and bollywood comforters! Sadarjis, thank you and keep it coming!

Yes, he did turn up for II's birthday party with such a comforter in hand. Saw that but didn't thought it was that comforting!

Past and Present
 

The past few group of exco's,vice pres.,pres. of mapa have their weakness but the toad and gang were the worse because they affect alot of pilots and when they got the managment post for selling out the pilots, they made it worse by turning the screws on the pilots working condition. At least the new guy at mapa has some sincerity ,trying to do sometime good for the pilots. Just remember who the toad's salesman was, who con alot of junior pilots to vote a certain way.:ouch:

The rot in MAS and MAPA
 

Once the gangrene set in, it stinks all the way. The rot in MAPA started to fester intensely with the reign of the so called kondeyless bhai g-string. He and his side kick charma fiddled and ravaged the whole psyche of the association; so much so that ( as someone remarked in another thread ) the whole pilot community was left psychologically damaged. Like abused children they accepted all the crap thrown at them; even worshipping their abusers. Their critical thinking went down the toilet and so have their self esteem...they accept corrupt and shady practices with nary a shrug, so the bhai and gang milked the system to the maximum until the camel used all the abuses as ammunition to mount the infamous ayatollah takeover which left MAS pilots in a cess pit. On the broader front MAS itself stated decaying and haemorrhaging around that period. Once the rot started it needs a miracle to reverse the effects. Toady, whose - lan learnt very well from gstringh and charma and we are left to nurse the putrefying flesh from the first infection.....

g stringh
 

Mohdawang...I was alerted to this post by a friend trolling this S A & F E forum. When I was east in the land of the morning calm some years ago there was indeed a loud mouth from " truly asia " who had a name rhyming with g-string and I think he is the guy implicated here and in the thread about Jet Airways recruitment from that country. A snaky fella with lots of baggage I believe......and loads of tall tales!

gstringh in kimchiland
 

Heard over the grape vine that gstringh botched up a landing in NRT ala sekali, scraped the engine pod; found it during the walkaround and kept quiet about the whole thing despite flying the stricken plane the next leg. It was found out by the next crew....excuse, FO flew it! Amazing that this ass is still in the game...the powers that be in SEL must surely be so blind and dumb!

Engine pod scrape in NRT
 

Very true, I remember that incident. It was CRIMINAL not to report such an incident! He got away with the help of an ex kenyan snake of gujarati descent; this snake delta delta is a kimchi brownnoser perpetually parking himself up on the 7th floor of the oc building hoping for some management positions...........at least that was the case when I was still there a couple of years ago. It was indeed fortunate the mechanic and the other crew detected it, otherwise the blame could have put on someone else especially if subsequent landings encounter similar wind/ or nearly similar landing attitudes ( but not that far as to scrape the engine pod; no doubt AIMS report, FOQA analysis could have ascertained who the culprit was ). No report to tower meant that should a piece come loose during the scrape on the runway, other planes taking off/landing could have been endangered like the Concorde in Paris!

Can the boys in Kimchi land confirm Ace's allegation? It sure is serious; I am ashamed that a fellow M'sian is involved; but then this is that kondehless miscreant! Tsk, tsk,tsk!!

Over some steaming teh tarik, someone did confirm that the kondehless arse did indeed prang an engine pod into the runway at NRT sometime ago. Did not report to anybody during that short transit ( I believe was SEL-NRT-SEL ), hoping it will be pinned on somebody else. Unfortunately, he managed to get away with it after some intense lobby on his behalf by a fellow snake from kenya or somewhere. Can other kimchi drivers confirm this?

MAPA is a Joke and run by clowns!
