Emirates is not a british national carrier, its owned by Dubai Royals and contributes to UK economy so much so that its stake in football clubs and stadia in England is immense just to mention among many other sectors.Kenya does not need KQ to grow its airline economy..there are many airlines who would want to bid for JKIA as their hub and actualy do better than KQNo other airlines have interest in their own countries eg. ethiopian despite having an over representation in the kenyan airspace contributes more about 7% of GDP to the ethiopian economy and less than 1% to the kenyan, so no the outcome is not the same. ethiopian will not employ kenyans as KQ does, it will not support the kenyan logistics and catering companies as KQ does. That is why KQ can not and will not fall and if the merger is requisite for this to happen then so be it, on this one I am fully behind the Government Of Kenya.
Public money should be used to provide medicines and hospitals not to bail out private companies
