Airasia is run by a Portuguese decent Malaysian who knows what he is doing. Despite MAS and powerful Malay elite trying to stop air asia growing (MAS even did deal with sing airlines their arch enemy) to stop airasia!

The bunch of no hopers trying to set up a Thai LCC are not fit to run the proverbial sweet shop in a school.

Leave business to businessmen.

Hubmania is common in asia. malaysia was going to be the hub of [insert any crazy idea here]. They were going to be the Halal food hub of the world (2 giant abbattoirs were bult and the only thing that went through them wwere mossies), IT hub, Islamic banking hub,.....

I know this was all foreign consultants talking BS.

Same consultants in Thailand then I guess!

BS Hub yes!

Well as I see it the teal issue is that the planet can't support 6-10 billion people with high meat and energy consumption. So two choices

1. The west rapidly adopts renewable energy and invests tens of billions developing such technology. Part if this would include lower meat consumption as beef consumes 6 times the calories to feed us as the grain the cattle eat. And the methane they produce is a major global warmer

2. The west keeps consuming and 3-7 billion third world people die of starvation.

Considering the west is using the third world as effective slaves, like the slaves of the roman empire that did most if the productive work, to make one dollar t shorts etc, I'm guessing option 2 will be the one that happens.

It is no coincidence that revolutions in the middle east have occurred when food prices had risen so fast recently. Poor people facing starvation don't mind during anymore! In the west the raw material input cost is significantly lower % than in the third world. We in the west can afford to keep buying. So the poor will starve and revolt

Not a pretty future
