BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Sept 26 (Xinhua): Foreign pilots at Royal Brunei Airlines (RB), Brunei's national carrier, have been retrenched as a result of excess pilot manpower due to the Covid-19 impact, a senior government official said.
According to local daily the Borneo Bulletin on Friday, Haji Mohd Amin Liew, Brunei's minister at the Prime Minister's Office and second minister of Finance and Economy, confirmed that RB is not flying as frequently as it used to, so it has the problem of excess manpower, especially at the pilot level.
