When Jambojet grows to half the size of KQ then KQ can be buried. Jambojet is a subsidiary of KQ, so they will always live and die together. Which tells you that KQ will definitely survive the storms in one way or another, dying is not an option. At worst it will close business for some time and later get revived.... KQ shareholder funds on the other hand don't have such a certain future, definitely could be wiped out completely

Turudi Kenya. GoK made some promises to the banks in exchange for the Debt:Equity Conversion. GoK should live up to that promise. Then take KQ out into the middle of NNP and 💥. Vitu vingine regarding bailouts have little bearing on KQ's status as a perpetual loss-making machine. JJ can be spun off as different legal entity owned by the creditors of KQ.
