x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Costs cannot justify demand is the word. Drinks expensuve or nt? Dont drink la. Air line tix expensive? Go budget. Some thgs can go budget. Some things cant. Supply plenty? Basic economics. Demostation      ( Date: 12-Jun-2017 08:39) Posted: Business costs in Singapore is higher than most other countries' , so can understand many companies continue to lose money due to " higher everything" .. This is one of the reasons our market always is on the downside.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Most likely MRO business would be separated from sia as it alone employed 5000, 3000 tech, 1000 engineer and rest management. Job cut sia eng would get hit very hard as it belong to non core business, can be sacrificed most likely temasek would privatise it since share price rising steadly this year. SIA would eventually sold off to middle east to gain economy of scale and boost traffic in time for changi expansiob. Sg gov these few year washing hand of operating transport business, it either subcontract operating to third party while holding to maintenace and repair or sold off entire business with condition tied. Be prepared to see sia changed hand from sg to foreigner just like nol did. In fact it might be ongoing as changi group got the contract to operate saudi arabic airport for 20 years, most likely sia would be sold to saudi.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Agree 100%. Not vested. They haven' t recovered from their oil fiasco. Will have to hear more details about their forward looking plans before i buy. I' m afraid after retrencement benefits are paid out there willbe another leg down in prices. Just watching from the sidelines. More pain to come.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	In summary, high EQ prefered in business world, high IQ just stay in gov board or university and stick with researcher job. Try placing high IQ scholars to run sg companies, u get shitty result as they could not adapt to ever changing business environment. Sad part elitism too heavily ingrained into sg gov so much they could not break free, in the end sg icon companies would get sold off that id the rventual outcome.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	It took Uncle Lee & the ruling party several decades to build up Singapore Inc and it is sad to see it faltering. Working hard till being hospitalized is admirable but working smart is the solution in managing icon corporations like NOL, SIA, SMRT etc. There isn' t any doubt that the present management teams in various branches of Singapore Inc are loyal, intelligent/hard working scholars. However, to succeed in the business world, it takes foresight, business acument and, most important of all, thinking outside of the box. Cathay Pacific is a good example to follow.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Why waste resource on restructuring lol, might as well sell to the highest bidder and let them do the dirty job of cutting jobs. Selling off SIA good for everyone since sia cannot compete with chinese or middle east airline as they got a big protected domestic market to fall back. Unless sg gov prepare to take back sia and pour billions to aggressive expand network. Seeing how they give up so easier on nol, doubt they wanna burn cash to grab back market shares. The ceo leaking job cut before they actually cut jobs most lijely meant a big one coming...

Buyer just want it Clean. sgng123      ( Date: 08-Jun-2017 21:50) Posted: Once sia sold, the new owner would start cutting jobs like what happening to nol. We had given those supposed scholars management 5 years each for both nol and sia, too bad they high on IQ, zero EQ. High EQ is what made a successful business, high IQ can stay in university   or gov board to become researcher. World richest persons most are not scholars, they are just those mischief dropout with very high EQ. When sia annouced they setting up transformation office the writting on the wall it gona be sold away, further confirmed by ceo leaking job cut. Senario very similar to nol, buy new ships do cost cutting, in the end sold away. All those restructuring most likely requested by buyer before purchase is confirmed, meaning buyer want sg side to do most of the heavy lifting before they take over and do the easy job of cutting jobs lol. Again we waiting for the sign, once sia eng divestment happen, sia sale would follow. Sia eng stock price on a roll lately, sign pointing to privatisation.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Still remember nol ceo the army general, he switch to sph and currently causing damaging to stock price when announced he become new ceo in july. That how scholar is viewed in market, they plague for stock price. beginners      ( Date: 08-Jun-2017 20:18) Posted: AI yo don't say no talents lah. The high flyer and scholars are running it. They just need more time to gain experiences. We won't like to see Sia follow the path of NOL. sgng123      ( Date: 08-Jun-2017 15:10) Posted: That what a lot said for NOL, in the end it still got sold. Best part is nol returned to profit under cma leadership under 1 year, this just shown sg do not had talent for running transportation business. Best course of action is sell to the highest bidder with promise on making changi transit center in se asia. When sia eng divestment happen, soon it sia sale._.. Similar to nol sale after apl logistic divestment and smrt privatise after asset sale. Currently sg gov in process of reforming transportation system, shipping and land completed now air most likely this year as T5 openning in 2020 and the jewel in changi open in 2018. All these need higher traffic to support it and sia not growing due to everyone building own national carrier. Sg gov smart so they will go along with trend and sell off sia to support changi lol. Don be like cathay who refuse to go with market trend, now on slow decline.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	I' m sure he will get a slap on the wrist. National icon.......... announce to ang moh first before to staff. Some staff wanted to resign but were advised to stay on to take package for early retirement. Then they comeback on contract and think they can continue as before...... investshare      ( Date: 08-Jun-2017 07:34) Posted: I find CEO comment on job cut quite irresponsible, and just trying to show market he is doing something after Cathay move. If want to cut job, should cut then announce. Why announce to the world first? This affect morale of employees.
