Air Zimbabwe loses billions in French deal
3/27/2003 6:46:44 AM (GMT +2)
By Precious Shumba
Cash-strapped Air Zimbabwe has been prejudiced of billions of dollars
in scarce foreign currency as it forges ahead with its plans to acquire two
50-seater aircraft from Air Littoral Industrie SA of France. The money has
been lost through the payment of bonus fees to intermediaries, travel
allowances and kick-backs to management.
Sources familiar with the contract strongly feel that the airline's
management has to be investigated for illegal foreign currency dealings as a
matter of urgency or the airline could collapse. Documents made available to
this reporter show that Air Zimbabwe entered into an agreement with two
organisations to act on its behalf in order to hire two ATR 42-500 MSN 484
aircraft. The aircraft will service central and southern African routes.
The lease agreement is subordinate to, and consistent with the terms
of a sub-lease agreement between Maela Finance BV of Canada and Air Littoral
as sub-lessee as per agreement struck on 28 June 1996.
Aviation experts described the agreement as a "contract within a
contract". Air Zimbabwe will pay Air Littoral US$147 000 (Z$8 million) for
each of the planes every month for the next three years.
Efforts to get a copy of the memorandum of understanding between the
airline and the French company on Monday failed. But sources said the
management had committed the airline for the next three years and millions
in scarce foreign currency will be paid to the French in travel allowances,
monthly rentals and maintenance work. Rambai Chingwena, the airline's
managing director, refused to discuss the
deal saying it was premature for him to disclose it.
He said: "It (comment) will come at the appropriate time. It's at a
stage not for public disclosure." An e-mail to Chingwena by Lionel Sineux,
the head of fleet management at Air Littoral Industries dated 12 March,
shows that Air Zimbabwe has already paid US$357 881,09 (Z$286 304 872) as
part of US$450 000 (Z$360 million) security deposit before the plane is
delivered.
A source said: "This ATR business has been Chingwena's preserve. He
has flown outside Zimbabwe on several occasions and claims large amounts in
foreign currency. "The airline has lost substantial amounts through this
secretive deal. The money that Cornwell Muleya, an aviation consultant and
the former acting general manager for Air Botswana was paid, should have
been used to rehabilitate the British Aerospace 146 which has been lying
idle in the hangar since 1999.
"The money should have been paid directly to Air Littoral Industrie
without engaging private individuals and consultants. "The delegation that
travelled to France should have done that in the first place than wait to
lose millions in foreign currency. Air Zimbabwe paid for Muleya's travels at
US$350 each day he travelled on Air Littoral business."
Another US$170 000 (Z$136 million) was paid as commitment fee . An
additional US$102 086 was paid but Sineux was unsure what that amount was
for, saying he only knew that that transaction was initiated by the
Commercial Bank of Frankfurt (CBF). The contract was signed despite
resistance from government and advice from Air Botswana which once dealt
with Air Littoral. Air Zimbabwe first entered into an agreement to engage
Muleya as their consultant, to source the planes .Muleya wrote to Dennis
Maravanyika, Air Zimbabwe's former senior marketing manager, on 17 October
2002 expressing his satisfaction with the contract.
Muleya was said to have been paid US$25 000 (Z$20 million) as success
fee for each of the ATR planes and will receive an additional US$10 000 (Z$8
million) as bonus fee for each of the planes once the aircraft are delivered
to Harare.
This money is meant to thank Muleya for not exceeding the target
rental of US$100 000 which Air Zimbabwe was prepared to pay for the
aircraft. The aircraft were sourced at a rental of US$90 000 each.
Sources said since the memorandum of understanding between Air
Zimbabwe and Air Littoral was signed about four months ago, Chingwena has
undertaken several business trips to London, France and Canada, pursuing the
deal and claiming millions of dollars in foreign currency.
For example, Chingwena last Wednesday travelled from Harare on the
pretext that he was going to Montpellier in France to seal the deal with Air
Littoral but instead stayed in London because his visa to France was
invalid.
He later proceeded to Canada on unspecified business. He will return
on 6 April. According to sources who travelled to France last week,
Chingwena received US$10 800 (Z$8 6 40 000) at the rate of US$600 daily
allowance.
Five senior managers who travelled to Montpellier returned to Harare
last Sunday. Each was paid a daily allowance of US$350 for the one week they
stayed in France although Air Littoral paid for their
accommodation and flight expenses.
Meanwhile, when Muleya's relationship with Air Zimbabwe reportedly
soured, Air Zimbabwe approached Beaumont and Son of the United Kingdom to
assist them complete the Air Littoral deal. Patsy Barnes of Beaumont and
Son, according to documents at hand, faxed Air Zimbabwe on 18 March,
acknowledging receipt of the airline's accounts and a copy of the memorandum
of agreement.
Chingwena immediately faxed Cathy Oatridge at their London office
concerning the legal fees. He said: "Please can payment be made immediately
to Beaumont and Son in terms of the attached." He directed that the money be
deposited in the Beaumont and Son Sterling client account 0996602 sort code
18 00 02T on the same day.
On 19 March, James
Edmunds, a partner in Beaumont and Son, wrote to Air Zimbabwe
confirming Chingwena's flight schedule and said he was looking forward to
meeting him in France. Air Zimbabwe workers said the swift manner in which
Chingwena responded to the request to deposit the $44 million in foreign
currency into the Beaumont and Son account, had shocked them.
The same management has refused to release foreign currency to carry
out modifications on three Boeing 737 planes. The Civil Aviation Authority
of Zimbabwe has reportedly threatened to ground the planes by 31 March
unless the modifications were carried out.

Swindler's List
So, lets see.
Chief Operations Executive, J Van Jaarsveld: arrested by customs for smuggling 19 cartons of cigarettes into Mauritius a few days ago;
Chief Financial Executive, Cornwell Muleya:
bad history and reputation in previous airlines- Air Zim and others-, with money going into the wrong places... (see loooooooooooooong post by AP1+2);
Chief Administration and Human Resources Executive, Ram Ramachandra:
Fired by previous MD for building an Empire inside and Empire. Effectively, he staled the negottiaions with pilots and "encouraged" them to leave and then proposed to hire pilots via a company called Virtual Human Resources with which it was alleged that he was invlovled closely... An internal investigation concluded that "he had no invlovment in VHR at the time of the investigation". He was allowed to get a new job in India, and the company then Managing Director wrote to all employees and said that he "could not deny him" such an opportunity; Ram Ramachandran is the one who recruited J Van Jaarsveld; it was also allegeded that he conducted interviews at the airport HR office after 5pm, in the absence and behind the back of the Airport HR Manager; when the later complained, he was promptly transferred to Port Louis and Mrs CH, JVJ's protegee, was put their to replace him...

All of that sounds aweful!
With Flight Ops pressurizing pilots and intimidating them, and thses guys running the show, no wonder so many drivers have legged it!
Is there a honnest soul running that company? Indeed, Swindler's list would be such an appropriate name for it!
For sure, I would not be buying Air Mauritius stock!
Elvis has sped out of the building!

" I dont' think Speilberg would think it was believable.!"
This is all 'ops normal' at MK. It has been going on for years so why should there suddenly be a change. The Financial director was given 4 years prison only about 6 years ago and the then CEO/Chairman was caught with his fingers jammed in the till but other than a fuss in the papers nothing much came of it. As far as I know the Finance chief still hasnt served a day.
Someone earlier was talking up the good old days with Rancid apple but he was frankly no different to your present managers. He was the one who brought in Gulf air when there wernt enough MK pilots and paid them 70% more than the existing MK pilots.
Then there was the pilot Karl Donian death. Killed in very suspect circumstances and nicely swept under the table.
The rules in MK are written by whom ever is in charge and the Cap 371 or whatever number it is will be interpreted according to the needs of the company on the day.
I put money on it that VdJ will be replaced by someone equally harsh on staff and and staff salaries and in 10 years from now pilots/cabin crew will still be pulling their hair out. Best go down to the beach and enjoy your time while you are there or find another place to work. Trying to change things wont work, I know!!

Air Mauritius has been the cash cow of SOOOOOOOOOOOO many individuals with sticky fingers! The former Financial Director's case and all the people he has accused of having benefitted from the "Black Box" funds... People from both government and opposition, movers and shakers...
At all times the employees were assured of the bad financial situation, need for cost control, cost containment, cost cutting, cost reduction etc etc etc. Meanwhile, the company carried on making money but employees got sweet f*** all in return or some crumbs whilst the loafs were eaten by the selected few!
And yes, about Rancid Apple: it was Virgin Atlantic crew that actually were pulled in to give a hand when MK ran short on pilots! And now SAS... Really bad for moral of the current guys, all the time being at the wrong end of the deal.
Hope JVJ will NEVER get another job in aviation! Or anywhere else for that matter, for he is an evil man. There are still a lot left in Air Mauritius

Nicely put GE CF6 and very much to the point. It is a never ending process and you all deserve a less crooked bunch of managers.
Just a small point- Rancid brought in both Virgin and Gulf air in late 96. The Gulf Air dudes are still whistfully dreamy eyed about the well paid days spent in the sun with their families by the free Shandrani pool.

JVJ's brown underwear
Hi, hi, hi!
So, they did get JVJ after all, hey? OK, never know if that will be enough to get rid of the guy. Technically, he should not be entitled to any payment/compensation for being fired on a gross misconduct charge. So, lets see. When are they going to get rid of the Finance guy? It does make scary reading about the stuff at Air Zimbabwe. My G**!
I bet a lot of guys will be going through the Red Channel now! Heard that there are few walking around in diapers nowadays, for they are not too sure about what will happen to them...
Indeed, quite a few were put in position by Ramachandra, JVJ and their little gang; besides the HR department, there is a very interesting case of an ex Union President (ground staff) who did all the dirty work of Ramachandra to bash a tiny little engineer (who would not harm a fly) about an email he allegedly wrote at work regarding Union matters. That chappy deserves to be referred to as Brave Heart! Man he gave Ramachandra a run for his money...The engineers were realy pi**ed off with the ground staff union that was betraying their aspirations. Time for them to make their own!
Meanwhile, that ground staff Union President was pushed in to become a cabin attendent... A much better job than that he had before, thanks to Ramachandra and his cronnies. The interesting thing about that Cabin Attendant is that he is the ONLY Colour Blind cabin attendent in the company... How good does it get?

Happy New Year Russ
Wishing to all of you and especially Russ a very Happy New Year 2006. Hope that his long (and I am sure a very lonely ) journey will see a succesful rerostering and him takingh to the skies again. As for Air Mauritius, may it start at LONG LAST listeing to the grievances of its employees and acting on them to make it a Happy Place to work for. And to the new MD, please, don't get that aggressive to your staff in letters. Show that you really want to work WITH them, and not against them. Your tone is very important, the way you pitch your arguments will either win you the staff support, or alleniate them. To the New CHairman, hope that he will be able to clean up MK and rid it from some nasty individuals who have no room in aviation.
"Ground, we have had 2 good starts. You are cleared to disconnect all ground equipement. Hand signals on the left. Have a happy New Year"
God bless us all!

Good old Cornwell Muleya
Well, well, well. So the New Year has come, and things are still very quiet I see. Any news on JVJ? Will he get the boot from Air Mauritius or will he live another day to scre* more pilots and cabin attendents?

Re: Air Mauritius defies IFALPA
"The Seven Chapters of Your Life"???? "God's Limitless plans for your Future"???? Maybe RR needs to have a chat with Cornwell who could no doubt read him his horrorscope and let him in on MK's plans for HIS future!
"Time Difference"? "Your essential guide to time management"??? Four months de-rostered and counting.
I dunno, whatever they're smoking they should pas it around. Are these tomes required reading on the 19th floor, does anybody live there anymore?

Swindler's List
An award-winning manager in the aviation industry, he believes in sharing the gospel....
So, I guess he knows that God has been extremely good to him and decided now to SHARE something, in writing. But sadly it was only Gospel, and not his Swiss and UK bank account numbers.
Maybe one would rather ask our friend here to write a new book:
How to Swindle in the Aviation Industry in 10 (short) lessons.
Could I suggest as prologue to this international block-busting best seller a chapter with the numbers and passwords to CM's bank accounts.
As for managing my time, after that,I think will do very fine all by myself, thank you!

The Time Is Nigh
Well...Well...Welll....looks like "crunch time" is fast approaching.....the "court date" is on the 8th of this month, with an Executive/AGM meeting combined, a few days before, on the 6th Feb.!
Stating the obvious, morale is at an all time low,...the most "common" question on the flight deck these day is...."so, when are YOU leaving????"
Whether management is concerned or not is debatable, we in the "trenches" certainly have not heard a "peep"
Although they are very short of crew on the A340.....with most of those crew being rostered for close to 100 hours per month now,....the 767 crew have not yet been factored into the equasion......which then ofcourse changes the dynamics a bit.
The rumour doing the rounds is that the crewing of the 767`s will be "outsourced" to rated crews via a leasing company, whilst the Air Mauritius crew are re-trained onto the A340.....!With so many instructors having already voted with ther feet, it is going to put an enormous strain on this department, for sure!
Another rumour is that the ATR fleet/Operation may be given over to a private company like "KATO AIR" for example, as it is not a "profitable operation".......If operated by a "private organisation" though, it will have some kind of goverment subsidy, in which case THEY might be able to operate at a profit,...complicated, but do-able!
This then "frees-up" the ATR Crew for upgrade to the A319 or A340......so in the end, all part of the GRAND PLAN....and no "crew-shortage" after all!!!
Anyway, that was my sixpence worth, I hope at the end of the day something GOOD comes out of this DISPUTE....otherwise the DARK storm-clouds may just become darker!

Dad's getting worried. He isn't talking to Mummy! 
When all the B767 boys come over, it's going to make him look even worse!
He says he will still have a job because all the 'nice men' in Port Lousy will look after him because he did the 'good' thing by them.
I'll see (listen) if he says any more more to Mummy tonight!
It's not a happy home at the moment.

Dad's a mean man
