As has been discussed here often, they make some crazy pricing decisions and have various problems with their web site. That can all be fixed. (And if the real problems aren't fixed, severe cutbacks won't fix them!) They are one of the two main Star Alliance carriers in SE Asia and should be pushing that more, not cutting back.
