CX's mistakes to date are not existential and they are nowhere near going bust. If this happened on CX everyone would be incredulous and the comments would be "someone should be fired". And there's a real likelihood that would actually happen (though we wouldn't be told).
Would that happen at MH? One wonders.

I don't think you give the current and previous CEO enough credit for the hard work and effort being put in together with Kazannah Nasional in trying to get the airline heading in the right direction financially and to ensure the business model is a profitable one for the long term.
Kazannah have some very very bright people within the organization who are very determined to right the wrong's of the past and to put the airline back on top. And it's not something that can be done in 24 months.
Not with an airline that much in debt and having lost 30% of it's passenger loads due to the two aircraft losses.
