Saudi Airlines having financial problems?

Submitted by Matt (Philippines), Sep 5, 2007 at 22:05

I have heard that Saudi Airlines is having money problems (possibly due to mis-management and/or their inability to compete with other superior airlines) and is not paying their employees on time (mostly foreign-hired ones from Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, etc.). Many are getting their salaries 2 to 4 months late.

If this is true it reflects very badly on the Saudi Arabian government which runs the arilines. =(
