Where on earth have you dragged that from? You now seem to be saying that you think EK aren't actually subsidised, but they have safety issues You really are scraping the barrel now.

For those of use that had the pleasure of visiting the EK training centre a couple of years back, we *know* that EK has a top class training facility, and take safety extremely seriously.

As has been said, most of the crew are from what you'd describe as 'first world' countries. They may b1tch and moan, but doesn't that happen in every airline?
