Current SIA and its cabin crew management Bestest

In 2003 when SARS struck and only for a few months the economy and businesses in general were affected, SIA cabin crew management retrenched dozens of crew. My colleagues and I (around 20 of us)were given the early retirement as a way to save cost for the company.

The current pandemic which is many times more serious than SARS and cost trillion of dollars of losses in businesses and five million lives worldwide, SIA cabin crew management did not retrench a single Singaporean nor PR cabin crew. This pandemic is almost two years with us and despite of the cancellation of hundreds of flights and losses amounting to billions, SIA puts on a brave front and has faith that it will recover. Kudos to SIA and its cabin crew management!👍

 In Singapore, we are not allowed to keep this as pet

RIP IFM Rodney Wong

 

Another piece of good news!

 It is heartening to know that Australia will be opening its border ( Victoria and NSW) for fully vaccinated Singaporeans and vice versa from 21 November (20 days from today). They must first be tested negative for Covid 72 hours before boarding the plane. There will be no quarantine for citizens from either country. This is definitely good news for SIA,SCOOT and Qantas! It will also be great for the tourism industries of both countries.

Unvaccinated crew is going to face a tough time

 What will happen to the few dozens unvaccinated crew who were redeployed to office job? These crew chose not to be vaccinated and were prepared to be redeployed but not resignation from the airlines. However, from January 1 next year, employers are allowed to sack unvaccinated staff if their job does not require them to work from home. The rationale is unvaccinated staff may infect their colleagues with Covid-19 if allowed to work in the office. 

Any comment?

Despite of high vaccination rate,cases are surging ...

 Singapore recorded 5,324 new Covid cases yesterday, the highest since the pandemic started 18 months   ago. The question is why with the high vaccination rate of  more than 85% of the population, the number of new cases are rising?

Is there any light at the end of the tunnel for Singapore? Some countries are advising their citizens not to visit Singapore at this time. It looks like the tourism and aviation industries will be affected badly and may take a long time to recover.
