NOTA EDITOR: Keadaan ekonomi Malaysia sudah semakin teruk dan tidak seperti yang digambarkan oleh media-media pencacai milik UMNO (Utusan Meloya, Berita Hairan, TV3 suku etc).
Bayangkan, juruterbang (pilot) pun sekarang ni menganggur.
Undilah Barisan Nasional lagi.

Graduate pilots hit hard by job shortagefrom Malaysia Waves by Tulang Besi
ABOUT 500 pilots earned their wings and aimed for the sky – only to see their dreams come crashing. The reality is that there are few openings and the job shortage has hit them hard.
Most of these pilots, who graduated from the eight flying schools in the country, have been without a job for between one and two years.
Other developments:
While the schools produced between 300 and 400 pilots annually in the last five years, their total intake for a year can reach up to 800.
The biggest airline operator – Malaysia Airlines — only takes in about 100 pilots or so and its priority is its own trainee pilots.
The problem of surplus pilots will be further compounded when more join the group this year.
Don’t be idle, take courses to keep flying skills intact, Department of Civil Aviation flight operations director Capt Datuk Yahaya Abdul Rahman tells fresh pilots.
