Six air stewardesses nabbed in Sepang drug raid

SEPANG: Six air stewardesses were among 12 people arrested in a drug raid at a house in Kota Warisan on Friday
Police also seized about 0.05g of ketamine, along with drug paraphernalia, including ringgits which have been rolled-up to be used in consuming the drug.

This is bad. Stewardesses potentially reporting for work not in the right state of mind and then handling safety aspects of the flight....very very dangerous.
The airline does not conduct random drug testing measures which is also very dangerous.

Air Asia isn't alone! CI had a flight attendant get caught in Taipei with Marijuana and Ecstasy on her.

More concerned with Air Asia and the state of the crews/FA's going to work high on drugs and not being able to perform their jobs safely.
Safety is therefore compromised and lives are put at risk.
I hope the authorities throw the book at them and they go to jail for a long time as a lesson.

No need to keep them fresh for later use. Plenty of new flesh for the bosses to put forth. SE Asia style of course.
Puhleeze.
And Puritanical.
And it's certainly not a sufficient amount to be K-holed.... which i'm told is a place you really don't want to be.

Agreed. The ludicrous response to any amount of drug is unneeded posturing.

Evil? Seriously? The overblown view of drug use is, again, ludicrous. Sure, you want to dismiss them from flight duties or the airline in general, gothca. Evil? Senseless.

Where is the sense of justice? Of human decency?

Not really bothered about what goes on in Taiwan or with CI.

Are you seriously talking about not only ruining someone's life but putting a human being in a cage for fifty years or more over this? For possessing (a tiny amount of) a chemical that makes a person feel good? (A chemical that is, incidentally, also used as a legitimate clinical anesthetic in medicine.)
Where is the sense of justice? Of human decency?

Absolutely ridiculous to ask for life imprisonment for a little residue and some rolled up bills.

I think there is a cause for concern as there is no evidence to proof they were not taking drugs before reporting for duty at anytime since they joined the airline either.
If they are doing drugs now, you cannot say they are neither habitual drug addicts and/or they have not been addicted to drugs that could have impaired their judgement and decision making whilst operating on flights both domestic and international which could have compromised the safety of passengers and fellow crew members.
