it should be known that its not all the pilots, but a select few. problem is that some are untouchable including sons of powerful men in Kenya

I wonder if that hotel is the same on the former CEO allegedly had shares in...

I watched a documentary on CNN about the cocoa business and the plight of farmers in Ivory Coast and it is pure Highway Robbery!!! Richard Quest did the math and the amount of money the multinationals were making and how much of that trickled back to Ivory Coast was criminal! If you look at the images of the employees and executives at the chocolate companies and then immediately after that you are shown the mages of the farm owners and workers (some of them kids) it just breaks your heart!!!

What's worse, most of those interviewed (I think ALL) had never tasted chocolate in their lives. The first time was the one they were given by Richard Quest!!!

Upon release of FY, if loss before tax goes above 9.5B, we will see the share at KES 5.. But that will be the last time it ever touches that price. Obama will give KQ landing rights to the USA and the chapter titled loss, would be closed.. Take off awaits :)

@Maichblack, its not a curse. I have visited France and they are known to have some of the best vineyards if not the finest actually.What happens is you have your several acres and you either do the process from the beginning to the end mpaka bottling.If not you are doomed, you either join the cooperatives that market the produce from the region.That is why there are wines from Rhone, Bourgone,Alsace etc and they make good money.The secret lies to making end products.I think is Arap Samoei who said once about tea that instead of selling green harvested tea, we should refine and sell it as a brand like it is with Ketepa.I usually feel the pinch when i take tasteless expensive Lipton tea which is sold by sijui an english company ama Earl grey tea whereas i could get good Ketepa tea for the same price.The same with Chocolate and Nestle.It pisses me at times when i find people taking tea and say they are drinking English tea and those in the next table wil say they are taking French wine downing with Suisse chocolate

I agree with you Kiash, I was suprised to learn that what we call champagne is fine wine from Champagne in France. There was some lawsuit where some french company was suing some wine makers in California.

Brand Kenya should be the GOK entity pushing companies towards this but.....I dont see it

@VVS those kids who grow cocoa have never even tasted chocolate let alone starting to imagine how to make anything from the seeds. West Africa is still very colonized they import everything from France

[quote=maka]How come we arent talking about the government bail out...

Reason for bailout is very fake;

“Kenya Airways is facing challenges because their revenues have gone down due to the Ebola epidemic and the slump in tourism, therefore the Carrier has been given a loan of Sh4.2 billion through the supplementary estimates,” says the Treasury in budget documents. The bailout is to be disbursed in the form of a loan, although the terms are yet to be made public.

4.2B to KQ is peanuts. It is probably for paying May salaries and the hotel bills for passangers.

This is what I had said with regard to KQ post 1135 of this thread.

Thanks to KQ I've learned that the plural of aircraft is aircraft.
