A very tongue in cheek comment in "Post Bag" the Bangkok Post 22nd.
The Thai Pilots Association is arguing that allowing foreign pilots to fly on domestic routes is a threat to "national security".
The writer goes on to comment that there is a major epidemic spreading in Thailand, and it is not bird flu! It is the rapid spreading of xenophobia---the hatred and fear of anything that is foreign--
I know at least one poster on this forum that will agree with him!

Re: Fresh Epidemic
I remember this situation cropping up before. Can't remember exactly how long ago, but it was the same thing - only Thai pilots being allowed to fly domestic routes.Nereus wrote:A very tongue in cheek comment in "Post Bag" the Bangkok Post 22nd.
