Re: Spike in Aircraft Safety Incidents After Pinoyisation of Ground Crew. Another Cas
She was I believe Dr. Diana Young former CEO of Mil-Com Aerospace who died in China age 45 in 2004. Her husband now runs the company which has continued to be very successful.
I do not have any knowledge of A-Sonic Aerospace.
Yes, she did recruitment of aviation personnel not only from Philippines, but China and India. That was sometime before 2000 when there was a need for more staff as the aircraft maintenance industry was expanding very quickly.
Sad that she died in her prime whilst on a business trip in China. I did talked to her about a possible tie-up just before the incident. As for her being a Xtian or whatever, it is a choice the majority of humans made which religion they believe in and we should not condemn the religion nor the race they belong to.
In the 1980's the only company capable of maintaining large-body aircraft was SIAEC. The subsidiary of SAMCO, Singapore Aircraft Industries began operations and incidentally when China took control of Hong Kong from the British, a great number of Hongkongers decicded to leave Hong Kong and the Singapore Government took the opportunity to attract those from HAECO (Hong Kong Aircraft Company) to Singapore and help the company build it's capabilities. There was some rivalry between SIAEC and SAI (now ST Technologies Group) and I suppose some reluctance from SIAEC to pass their personnel over to SAI. The other factor was of course, since the SIA Group was reaping good profits and employees are earning high salaries and getting bonuses, not many would want to make the move to join SAI.
As it takes years to train personnel and for them to gain experience, there was urgent need to get FT's of the right calibre to work in SAI. SIAEC themselves were also short of aircraft engineers and artisans therefore there was little choice except to import them. The original Hongkongers from HAECO were the core group together with personnel from SAMCO seconded plus some scholars like Wee Siew Kim (remember him?).
Needless to say, both SIAEC and SASCO has been very successful and appears it will continue to be so for the next decade.
