A union call for a "tools down" protest by employees of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) will only backfire on themselves as well as potentially result in the airline facing a costly consumer backlash, an academician warned on Monday.
After the twin tragedies of MH370 and MH17 which eroded passengers confidence and raised safety issues, this intransigence seemed increasingly likely to damage the country's image and the airlines brand, said Dr Ahmad Zaharuddin Sani Sabri of Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM).
And he said it was most unfair that people would have their travel plans disrupted by the selfish actions of a tiny number of employees.
Dr Ahmad Zaharuddin, who is deputy director of UUM's Institute of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohammad Thoughts, said the threat issued last week by the National Union of Flight Attendants of Malaysia (NUFAM) to go on strike unless the airline rescinded its move to retrench 6,000 employees, was "irresponsible" given the reality that MAS was in a "technically bankrupt" situation.
