Yours truly is pleased to learn that at last on 8-9-2013 Alwafeer Air, a Jeddah based chartered airline, was ordered by the Court in Jeddah to pay all the outstanding wages within 60 days to the 32 cabin crews and pilots. Yours truly would like to congratulate the 32 ex-MAS staffs for their success in the pursuit of their outstanding hard earned salaries, which Alwafeer Air owed them for years.
The 32 ex-MAS staffs, who was seconded to Alwafeer Air, had to suffer for at least 2 years without any help from MAS, our Embassy in Riyadh or the Minsitry of Foreign Affairs (a whole file was given to Wisma Putra before YB Datuk Anifah Aman was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs). Some were left stranded in Jeddah and some were lucky to return to Malaysia.
These 32 ex-MAS staffs were seconded to Alwafeer Air after MAS/Penerbangan Malaysia Bhd (PMB) entered into three agreements to lease three jumbo jets to Alwafeer Air.
After the MAS-AirAsia share swap, during a meeting set up by Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar of Khazanah at the Hilton Hotel to explain to several prominent bloggers, yours truly specifically asked Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar
Bro,
Thanks for bringing this up. So Khazanah has been liwatted by the Saudis as well. Its a never ending story.

YB ,
I believe this is the great MD of MAS , Idris Jala who started this. The net man got away with this and he is driving PEMANDU now. He shud be blamed for this. Am I right? Buat salah , jadi menteri lhooo !! Malaysia boleh ..kena tipu !!
Yes, It was Due to jala and his lack of business knowledge that forced MAS to embark on this risky investment.
Bario gangsta,
I have no evidence that Datuk Idris Jala forced MAS to enter into the three leasing contracts for the three jumbo jets with Alwafeer Air.
The said leasing contracts were entered into during YB Senator Datuk Idris Jala was the MD of MAS.
Thank you
Regards

Lu old referee..semua orang tarak betul. Lu sorang saja betul. Kalu lu betul bagus..sekarang kasi lu punya full name and IC No. and volunteer jadi MD MAS…kasi semua orang tengok lu champion ka tarak. Kalau setakat mau cakap saja…sapa pun boleh. Hai yaaaa…
Wow if this is the mentality of TSAM and his boys in running the business susah lah. Many of them are analysts and are looking at numbers only sitting in the office and they are not operational people. If they can spend more time with the operational staff before running the business from the office, it would be great. Lower your ego and you can be a better managers. Another typical managers are from the Ekuinas group, the so call expert in everything they touch, hopefully will turn in to gold. Pooorrdah
Who is AJ…..kindly let everybody know who is this culprit..
His remark kaya mmg dah kaya..
YB ,
Why did the Govt allow these things to happen without punishing the people or person who caused the country to lose taxpayers money? in Japan , it would have been a kamikaze , harakiri , harakanan!! In Malaysia , he got promoted for his failure. He should be taken to task for his failure. QUIT laa!! Klu masuk MAS potong ini potong itu … jual building semua …tak sekolah pun boleh buat macam tu bro ….. !!
What is happening to our society? Sucks !!! Now we are one of the most corrupted countries in the world. Are we proud of our achievement to be in this position?? Look at Indonesia , the KPK ( Corruption Agency ) is doing a good job , even arresting Constitutional Judge for corruption. Here we do not even dare to raise a finger even after knowing very well of all corrupt practices around us. Look at the last Auditor General report. We go after the ‘small fish’ while the ‘whales’ get fatter.
Arrogant Society !!
Halo brother! Kalu lain country bagus, ini country tarak bagus…pigi duduk sana laaa…duduk malaysia apa bikin. Indonesia KPK bagus, pigi duduk indonesia la. Taxpayer money! Taxpayer money…lu berapa tax ada bayar? kasi tau. Small fish! Small fish!…lu mau suruh SPRM tangkap sapa? Apa pasai mau cakap ‘whales’. Cakap nama itu orang terus laaa…kalu berani.
Pengecut!
they got promoted and rewarded for achieving their goal – melingkup duit rakyat.
Only conman got promoted.
This is normal business and like all business there is a risk of failure. You should know better. Failures are the pillars of success so long as you do not have too many pillars.
I would like to share with all of you a very interesting incident which happened to my dear friend. Can anyone beat this, it took her 22 hours just to travel from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur via Langkawi on AA.
The incident was, they boarded AA flight from SIN on the 27/10 @ 3.00pm and when they arrived into LGK they were made to sit in the aircraft for a solid 5 hours and the announcement came from the cockpit saying that LCCT flooded and the airport is only using one runway. Finally they only disembark from the aircraft @ 9.00pm. They were served meals at 9.45pm and later transfer to the hotel. By the time they reached the hotel it was already 11.00pm.
The next day 28/10 they are supposed to depart LGK @ 1.10pm but then the flt did not depart until about 1.30pm. Throughout the whole ordeal there were only 2 announcement made
Imagine it took them about 2 days just to travel from SIN to KUL Tony Fernandez your recovery for delays are just so damn bloody good….KEEP IT UP. Doesn’t your Technical and Cabin Crew know what safety is? Your technical crew kept the passengers in the aircraft for a solid 5 hours…..wow I think the aircraft toilet must be full of shit and your cabin crew must have got a tough time cleaning all the shit for you.
TF maybe you enjoyed getting stuck in the aircraft for hours coz you would enjoy seeing all your stewardess in their sexy and tight mini skirts…..well I am surprised at all coz your are one HELL OF A DIRTY OLD TAMBY.
Treat your passengers like human coz they are not ANIMALS LIKE YOU!!!
Sticky beat
What had happened was the norm to that low caste airline. I believe hat some passengers had to suffer more hours of waiting than what has been experienced.
Now with the Malindo and MAS are fighting hard, the low caste will remain low caste and fade away in no time. The low caste is in deep shit now. I await to hear its down fall soon. May be faster than I have expected it to be. Hope that stupid Nazir of CIMB will realize before it is too late. CIMB better start thinking about recalling its loans slowly.
