The linked article seems to be a misreporting. Alan Joyce just said the plans are very much active and they are still in discussions with both Singaporean and Malaysian authorities. See: http://www.abc.net.au/worldtoday/con...1/s3378035.htm

Qantas says reports it will delay the establishment of an Asian airline are speculation, but the airline does say it needs to be flexible depending on market conditions.
Uncertain global economic conditions, particularly in Europe, have Qantas management considering delaying plans to establish a premium carrier in Asia and instead seeking an alliance with Malaysia Airlines, The Australian Financial Review reported.
Chief executive Alan Joyce said today no final decision had been made on the the establishment of an Asian carrier or an alliance.
....
"We believe that a new premium airline in Asia is important for us.
"The timing of that airline and how it works with partners is still part of the discussions we're having with both Singapore and Malaysia and no final decision has been made on what we are going to do."
