As Thailand Airways (THAI) is majority state-owned, you fairly well describe the mind set of the current and predecessor government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 9 hours ago, webfact said: Orders from airlines account for 90 per cent of Thai Airways's catering revenue. It currently serve 50 airlines and is looking for new customers in the European, US and the Middle East markets. For the non-aviation food business, the goal is to grow 20 per cent per year In terms of free enterprise, there's something disturbing about the expansion of Thai Airways beyond direct Thai Airways business activities, ie., catering its own airlines and carrying passengers. Thai Airways is a state-owned enterprise. As we have seen, its lengthy history for lack of competitiveness and economic success is not constrained by normal economic consequences such as bankruptcy or breakup. State-ownership has provided the airways with seemingly unlimited capital infusions via the Thai taxpayer who must replenish Treasury bailouts of the airways. For the State to further engage in businesses beyond Thai Airways itself not only goes beyond protecting the alleged reputation of the nation as a state national carrier, but directly competes in effect as a state-owned conglomerate against free enterprises, both domestic and international. This is a betrayal of the government's alleged purpose for its investment in the Airways and corruption of an free enterprise system that is typically characteristic of a democracy. The Thai State needs to divest its majority ownership and let the law of economics take its course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Just returned from my 4th overseas flight in 2 months with Thai & fail to see how they can be having such great losses unless very inept. Loadings would have been over 90% on all flights. Are they not getting paid from agents ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
