Holiday plan only for singles and adult friends group. Family holiday still no go next year since no vaccine for under 18.

If the vaccine are global goods why not license to more country at cost like the az vaccine are?

Pjseow which vaccine arrive earlier in Malaysia, Pfizer or sinovac? Which one in larger quantities? Did Malaysia get the sinovac for free? Did China license any country to produce their vaccine?

It is not just licensing problem the entire production process are extremely heavily regulated. Any change to the production line need months of test and certification. There are simply no way to move fast.

why vaccine produce so slow? vaccine production are complex unlike gloves which any tom dick and harry can setup factory to produce

two dose before can travel. so it will take until next of this year for people 18 and above to be able to travel. and kids will not be able to travel at all. from april to august the high risk group will be vaccinated, but these are not prime travel market for AA. family holiday would not resume anytime soon as many in the family would not be vaccinated.

Shortie cover their short from 1.2 and enjoying champagne now

AA going in travel booking in China, ctrip are going to eat AA alive

Check the short position later, maybe short covering

Dare to chase high?

pBlue you need to know the power of defense production act, it can be use to force companies to make something even if the company lost money on it. it can be used to force competitor to work together most recently Merck with J&J. it can be use to get priority access to all resources required, settle all labour dispute and more. during the start of the pandemic, the defense production act was use to made ventilator and companies immediatly switch production.

pBlue you think US going to have shortage? Biden had use defense production act for making gloves, US will produce half of their own demand. the gloves companies need to worry about oversupply in the world market instead.

WRP appoint which consultant? Why WRP can settle while the giant company TG cannot?

OldSix how does covid19 benefit AA when it is sandling with heavy debt unrelated to capex? this is actually the best time for new airline to startup with a clean slate, there are a lot of landing slot, experience staffs, idle planes available today, a new airline will start with big cost advantage over AA

if Tony got Masayoshi Son to invest in AA they can push into digital business with massive cash injection, but he got only a small time gambler not the legendary Nasdaq Whale

AA use what to fight grab, AA desperate to save money, Grab can drop billion to kill AA in the market

Morning chase high, afternoon slaughter

moneymakerx what seizure? TG got shipment to the US after June 15 when the seizure order first go out??? what shipment are seized this week?

TG where got suddenly slap on the face with register? they are on the list for months and the decision is just to keep then on it. WRP resolve their problem after a few months so they were removed from the list. Why TG management cannot resolve their issue like WRP?

Chase dead cat bounce?

WRP are No1?? Why WRP got banned first?

TG need to learn from WRP, WRP was the first gloves company from malaysia to get banned and they resolve the issue after resolving the labour issues. are TG management not as good as WRP?

management problem, why WRP can resolve all their issue and get the ban lifted and not the giant TG?

Pfizer latest test on 12 - 15 years old is 100% effective. More bad news for gloves

US not accepting any import made with prison labour is a policy that have been unchanged for at least 60 years. there is company in mexico that are on the list since 1954 because it is using prison labour. every exporter know this is the rule of the game. why TG management choose to join ESG in the subsibdary that export to US is the question, they can just have those subsidary to not export to US join this program and there won't be problem.

If just listed in HK sure get mainland support why China tech company just lost 700 bil value in one week. A fintech company that IPO yesterday crashed

AA trying to pressure gov to open border lah, no way they are still carrying unnecessary staffing cost for more than one year.

WRP was banned before a d resolve the problem buy paying back worker recruitment fees

Biden already sign the defence production act to produce half of the US gloves requirement in the US, why would they need TG to setup factory in the US now?

i3lurker be more positive, like Churchill said before, When you are in hell, keep going.

people that chase high already stuck now, might as well keep going

williamh WRP gloves was banned in 2019 and the issue was resolve in 2020 after WRP pay back the recruitment fees to worker. why WRP can resolve and TG cannot, WRP small company have better management than TG?

Why is need TG factory? Biden already use defence production act to make half of the US glove requirements in the US

Many said already price in but never said how much price in. Is it 4 bil or 5 bil

bad news for gloves

Hahaha, Iran cannot use USD under sanctions and Arab will never work together with Iran.

TG business model are base on using low cost labour, the business wont work with local workers

Come on why need gov help to clear this issue? WRP are able to solve it themselves, does WRP have better management than TG?

all these ecommerce, delivery, e-hailing, digital banking business are lose making business. SEA Grab, Gojak are all unprofitable bsuiness. they are dropping billions in VC fund to kill each other for market share. AA are desperate to reduce burn rate, they cannot compete in this market.

Gap down as expected

it is not room to appeal, the seizure order are active until the condition is solved. look at the list of all the previous order. WRP was removed last year, other company could be banned for years or decades if no changes. TG just need to solve the labour problem like WRP.

are WRP better managed than TG?

no one is banning malaysian gloves, it is only banning TG gloves.

Hush77 you are trying to tell use WRP are becoming the world #1 company and cause US to become jelly???

Hush77 EU is not even a big soybean producer, they are the world second largest importer behind china for soy. why would they banned palm oil to protect soy????

Hush77 WRP Asia Pacific was the first to be banned in 2019, before covid happen, what is your theory about that?

you guys all forgot on 2019 other glove company was put on the seizure list and was cleared in 2020. WRP Asia Pacific. they return the recruitment fee and it resolve the issue

pjseow now talk bs about custom officer seize the delivery base on inspection onsite. not due to a year long investigation that TG wasted 100 millions to try to stop

“Today’s forced labor finding is the result of a months-long CBP investigation aimed at preventing goods made by modern slavery from entering U.S. commerce,” said Troy Miller, Senior Official Performing the Duties of the CBP Commissioner. “CBP will not tolerate foreign companies’ exploitation of vulnerable workers to sell cheap, unethically-made goods to American consumers.”

The finding expands upon a Withhold Release Order (WRO) that CBP issued in July 2020. That WRO was based on reasonable but not conclusive information that multiple forced labor indicators exist in Top Glove’s production process, including debt bondage, excessive overtime, abusive working and living conditions, and retention of identity documents.

Today’s finding is the second forced labor finding that CBP has issued in Fiscal Year 2021. All findings are publicly available and listed by country on the CBP’s Forced Labor Withhold Release Orders and Findings page.

Federal statute 19 U.S.C. 1307 prohibits the importation of merchandise mined, manufactured, or produced, wholly or in part, by convict labor, forced labor, and/or indentured labor, including forced or indentured child labor. CBP detains shipments of goods suspected of being imported in violation of this statute.

If CBP has evidence sufficient to determine that imported goods were produced using forced labor, the agency will publish a formal finding to that effect in the Customs Bulletin and in the Federal Register pursuant to 19 C.F.R. §12.42(f). CBP will seize shipments subject to findings unless the importer can prove to CBP’s satisfaction that, per 19 C.F.R §12.43, the merchandise was not produced with forced labor.

Hahaha routine enforcement by custom need to talk until become geopolitical conspiracy. If it is a geopolitical issue what good will some lobbying do? Just waste of money

Pjseow making big joke, why would any us lawmakers take on this insignificant issue? There are alot more pressing issue in the Congress than a few gloves being blocked at the border.

Stanley Choi and David Bonderman being experienced cannot make bad bet?? like that Bill Hwang would not be able to lose billions in one day

after losing 5 bil in one year, Tony had put airasia group into even more money losing business like ecommerce, food delivery and ride-hailing. all these market have deep pocket players that are dropping billions to take market share from each other.
