Paedophile MAS Pilots?

This is worrying :

"Ahmad Said, 25, MAS co-pilot. Convicted and fined in an Australian court on Friday for bringing child pornography in Australia. His laptop contained files on 3 videos - "Raped Virgin", "10-year Old", and "High School Students". The magistrate, Mr Simon Smart, said there was a rape scene where a crying girl under 18 was forced to have sex with an older man."

This comment from an anonymous insider(Source Rocky's Bru) is even more worrying :

"It is an "open secret" in MAS that quite a few of the new crop of pilots are habitual drug users. There have been few cases of these pilots caught doing their habit in flight. Few cases have been brought to the attention of management. Unfortunately, these pilots are untouchable sons of high officials of Malaysia Airport, Government and Politicians.

Lately, children of influential parents have been using their contact to get their undisciplined and spoilt children into MAS pilot programs. As a result, the new crop of pilots from these influential family carry an attitude and this has resulted in a rise in indiscipline - no show for work, negligence and etc. The drug use problem is only the tip of the iceberg.

Despite knowing the grave danger it pose to passengers, Idris Jala is dragging his feet to kow tow to their influential parents. He is believed to have explicitly instructed the Legal Department to hold back actions on the drug using pilots.

It does not help that the MAS Legal Department is filled with son and daughters of "birds of the same feather". The son of Minister Tan Sri Hamid Osman heads the Legal Department. The lawyers under him is a "whose who" of the daughter of Rafidah Aziz, daughter of a Perlis royal family, son of a GLC Director and daughter of Diplomat.

Most trainers and senior pilots expressed their preference for “commoner” and out of town applicants/pilot. They have shown to be generally more disciplined, dedicated and focused on their job.

The interference from the top is seriously affecting the professionalism of MAS pilot. Morale among the more senior pilots is low because they are burdened to take up the slack of the problematic young pilots. Given time, it will affect passenger safety and God forbid, put human lives in danger.

My comment on this blog is meant to send a RED ALERT to relay the concern of pilots, particularly the senior ones, which under the management of Idris Jala is usually ignored in favours for the outsiders and newbie."
