A weeklong pilot strike during the Spring Festival holiday season forced Taiwan-based China Airlines to cancel 214 flights, which played havoc with the travel plans of about 30,000 passengers from Feb 8 to 15.
It was only on Feb 11, three days into the strike, however, that Taiwan leader Tsai Ingwen delivered a speech asking China Airlines management and employees to hold sincere and rational talks to end the strike.
Why was Tsai so indifferent to the repercussions of the pilot strike?
