Wallem manager fired refusing opportunity to female deck officer AN attempt to create an all male crew - almost of crews are - at Hong Kong's Wallem Ship Management in July went awry and a manager was fired to placate feminists and homosexuals, reported HK Free Press. An email dated July 18 from the company said, "Wallem would not offer places for females because we can't offer an appropriate onboard environment". The company said that the "cruise industry is the most appropriate" for women. Sophia Walker, a qualified applicant as a deck officer, filed a complaint of discrimination after the incident. In a letter dated August 10, Wallem Group CEO Simon Doughty said the man who wrote to Ms Walker was "no longer in Wallem's employment".
