Nufam slams Mueller over “sleeping” comment


MAS had seen great progress in the last 10 months with many turnaround initiatives working.

PETALING JAYA: The National Union of Flight Attendants Malaysia (Nufam) has hit out against outgoing Malaysia Airlines Bhd (MAS) Chief Executive Officer Christoph Mueller for his “egotistic” comment claiming that many of the 6,000 employees let go by the company were caught sleeping.

“The problem with him (Mueller) is that he is an outsider and might not understand our work culture in this country,” it said in a statement on Facebook on Friday night.
