spidermike007 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Like most tourism related businesses, they likely expected some courage, support and vision from the government, if a crisis ever happened. Talk about over estimating the goons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about over estimating the goons. Though, don't know why it's considered to be independent business practice when relying and dependent on govt support. This has become the generated mindset everywhere, expecting govts to bail out or assist any time someone farts in the wrong direction..........another destructive and very commonly accepted ideal is that governments should be in business or overseas/subsidize business. Somewhere along the paths, we've been induced to consider this a given. It shouldn't be at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governments deliberately destroyed the travel business for no good reason. If AirAsia had been allowed to operate normally, they wouldn't have been in trouble. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if so, that was a Provincial thing .... If International, well airlines stopped flying and the destination may well have closed its doors.
