SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's ruling party lawmakers on Saturday decided to oppose an impeachment vote of President Yoon Suk Yeol and a special counsel investigation bill on the first lady, local Yonhap News reported.
BANGKOK: The Thai Pilots Association is challenging a recent decision that allows foreign pilots flying aircraft leased under a wet lease agreement to temporarily work in Thailand on domestic routes.
The association cited a 2023 report from the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand , which noted that Thailand has 3,024 commercial pilots, including over 1,026 experienced pilots who were laid off during the Covid-19 pandemic and 1,219 graduates with Commercial Pilot Licence awaiting airline employment. These figures show that Thailand does not face a pilot shortage, he said.
The association also expressed concern that such resolutions could recur in future years and become increasingly problematic. Additionally, allowing foreign pilots to operate aircraft in Thailand could have broader implications for related industries.
