i guess i have been abit too harsh on AA. But i can only hope all the promises made will be materialised in no time. thank you.

Peter:
Your strong language previously was not out of place. It was frustration that lead us to protest at the LCCT too. Lets hope that things will be better soon for those of us who need to fly.

Peter- this is what I call making a difference. BEAT is indeed making a difference.

Peter:
At BEAT we try to make a difference so that everyone, not only disabled persons, can enjoy equality in society.

Hi! Peter
It was kind of Dato Fernandez to make time to meet with the BEAT Group. It is a worthwhile course and however extra time it might take to get disable people into a plane, it all adds up to profit. More passengers mean more income for the airlines and more freedom for the disable people to travel. So, let us just give Dato Fernandez a bit of time to address this issue to his company and let us hope that he does deliver what he preaches. Thank you Dato Fernandez.

Peter:
The little more time that disabled persons need to board a plane should not be seen as a delay but as a part of life. We do get delayed every now and then by situations beyond our control. By agreeing to look into the problems faced by disabled persons and resolve it Dato Fernandez has lead the way to show corporate Malaysia that you can make money and be caring at the same time too.

hey pete, let’s hope this dato is the knight in shining armor riding a shinny airbus 737 among all others datos….

Peter:
Hey Terence, Air Asia is moving towards Airbus 320, if their entire fleet is not already so. Yes, lets hope something positive come out of this.
