Sorry, but I gotta raise the BS flag here. I’m not advocating voting yes OR no, I would just like people to have the FACTS to decide, not misinformation...

First – count how many times EI uses the phrase “I think” or “I feel” vs. “I KNOW” – doesn’t sound like he really has ALL the facts now does it?

Second – EI - “With regard to being based in Hong Kong, I think that we are going to be based there because the company wants it that way.”

Maybe this other guy (NC member) might KNOW why HKG...from his letter:

MH - “At the urging of our committee, the LOA bases the pilots in HKG rather than CAN, even though the actual operational base is CAN.”

EI - “Why? That is a question that only the company can answer.”

How ‘bout that the union guys got over there and saw the place for the she-ite hole that it is and URGED the company to base us in HKG vs. CAN?

Third – Housing Allowance, Seed Money, Shipping Allowance – all EI’s arguments here are debunked with just a little internet research – here’s a 1-bedroom apartment in Paris (a couple of blocks from the layover hotel) for 1900 Euro FULLY FURNISHED – with MAID SERVICE

etc. etc. etc.

Blasphemy, I know, to all you Subic guys, but the facts are the facts.

Flame away, but PLEASE VOTE.
