    Nothing constructive will come out of this. Eventually, ordinary masses will pay taxes to maintain this loss making entity.

    COMMITTEE IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE JUST WASTING TIME BY TALKING RUBBISH.

    Committee's are appointed for every damn thing and that is the end. If you appoint a committee, then you should follow its recommendations to have a meaningful outcome..

    Eleven of them, what a joke, is this a committee or football team.

    Kingsley Wijesinhe Monday, 07 January 2019 07:45 PM

    Does any member of this committee have experience in the aviation industry? I presume that is not the case. International aviation is one of the most competitive industries in the world, and amateurs cannot be expected to come up with anything constructive.

    Why they appointed Susantha Katugampola for the Srilankan board? This is a person who came to Australia seeking refugee status. He is a person who encourage people to apply for refugee status saying Sri Lanka is not a safe country. He even got bashed on the streets of Melbourne for ruining people’s lives. How can he sit in the board from Australia. He is another liability for this establishment. He must be getting free business class tickets to travel. Only thing he is good at is he’s a good talker and would like to mingle with VIP’s.
