The South African Airways is a National Asset and is very profitable if it is placed in capable hands. We need to look at both sides of the coin before condemning the failures that are at the carrier. Mismanagement creates a situation where people will need to look back on the same carrier and see that a long time ago there was excellent management of our Carrier and we enjoyed being identified with the Airline. The steps that have been taken now show positivity pointing to the right direction and as a Nation we need to support the initiative. Give the this initiative twelve months there will be positive signs of recovery competing with other Airlines. Good riddens prevailed although too late.
