Poaching and hiring new people will only make matters worse and will annoy COTU. Not something they'd want to do because it's not a battle they can win so I hope they don't think it's over and become arrogant. This issue is far from over.

BBI will solve it

The price increase is due to the fact that The strike ws scheduled for today. there Being no negative info, can be treated as good news.
Such factors never push prices too far at the bourse

The deal....asante kwa kunikumbukasmile

Boarded the bus earlier on today at 46.50Pray

Yaani.........my gamble did not work!! Plus transaction costs, this was a very costly affair.

But again, how else to describe an investor's day at work!!!

Juba is a tiny, tiny portion of their Revenues! The largest portion are the Revenues from West Africa...

Now why would this annoy COTU? [And so what? See what happened in UK during the 1970s... Thatcher crushed the Unions]
If the crew/staff goes on strike, I support KQ if it SACKS them... It will hurt us/KQ in the short-term but the long-term benefits out-weigh the losses...

BTW, I wish KQ would publish what they pay the Crew... I read on Wazua 100,000 to 150,000 per month... If this is published... there will be lines lining up to work for KQ... It takes only 6 months & 250k each to train cabin crew... I would be happy to 'sponsor' a few students for 20% of 3 years pay!!!
