‘Govt not interested in saving PIA’

Vice-president PPPP (Pakistan People’s Party Parliamentarians), senator Sherry Rehman, expressed dismay over the disastrous performance of Pakistan International Airlines in the last 4 years. “No serious action has been taken to save PIA or hold people accountable for the losses and malfeasance even after 2 years of hard work by the parliamentary committee’s scrutiny and diligent questioning,” said the Senator while speaking after the Special Committee on the Performance of PIA Rehman said no satisfactory answers were ever provided on the setting up of the Premier Service, its lack of business plan, quiet dissolution and huge losses to PIA. “With only a few dozen planes and accumulated losses of PKR345b (U$3.13b), it pains us to say that PIA is now among the world’s most poorly managed airlines." <br/>
