I am beginning to wonder if this is another 'scoop' on that site that is of very doubtful value. Still no reports except the original claim by Airlines Rating and another site quoting them. Nothing on Vietnam Airlines or Perth Airport websites.Vietnam Airlines To Add Perth from December 7 - Airline Ratings
Vietnam Airlines has revealed that it will commence services to Perth, Australia, on December 7 with a three times weekly service.
Looks like VN will also start PER from SGN within a week of VJ commencing flights.
3 weekly 789 service.

I know Geoff Thomas was often been bagged on this forum, but from memory no-one actually come up with evidence that anything he wrote was incorrect.
I am sure that there was some big prediction that he got completely wrong but as I can't find anything egregious I can't really dispute your point.
All that said, it's a while since I've seen anything from him in The West. But if he came back, it could only improve the rag that was once a fine newspaper, until Stokes took over some years ago.
Yes it has certainly gone downhill in the last few years. Most of the journalists appear to have been sacked with much of the content bought from other sites. Once I saw 'articles' by the likes of Andrew Bolt appear I knew that things were going bad. I mainly get it for the occasional local news items and of course the sports coverage. Over 40 years of subscription does make it a hard habit to break.
