You can't make a phone call to cancel a GIRO donation but you can get a form from any of the DBS/POSB branches to fill in to effect the cancellation. Alternatively, u can call 1800-1111111 to get them to fax a form to you. I done mine this way.

Alternatively, if you have a DBS/POSB Internet account, just log in, choose Payment Services on the left and then Delete GIRO Arrangement. Instant!

I had cancelled long time back since I heard CEO flying first class and also heard about NKF providing scholarships to staff.

I did not like what is happening but am contributing each month to help the kidney patients through the foundation. The kidney and cancer sufferers will still need our assistance.

Why do you keep contributing knowing that they have 30yrs worth of reserves? I don't think patients will be denied care as there's plenty of reserves. It's best to continue contributing after they've laid down some framework.

i just don understand what's going on in yr head.

We are not saying u don help, there are other charity organisations that are also helping these people...donate to these organisations instead. At least more of yr dollar channels to the needy.

Fact:

1. They have a huge reserve to last paitents and themselves for at least 10 to 30yrs.
2. CEO flies first-class and sued ppl for saying FACTS (for this, his entire family lineage ought to be massacred).
3. There are many other charities out there that requires funding desperately.

Since u want to help, help those smaller charities that have been drawing in far less donations but putting the money to more efficient use.

Personally I wun give money to a bouncing fat beachball who's complaining that he's hungry all the time when the lard in him can last for the next 10 to 30yrs.

Same here, called OCBC to cancel my GIRO contribution.

Besides NKF, there are others charity organisations which need the money more.

Nothing wrong with his head. Since there are so many people quitting the NKF, I've asked to increase my monthly donations to them.

Just a few questions to those quitting;

1) Are you contributing to make yourself feel good or to help needy people?
2) If the latter, why does it matter how well the CEO is paid, as long as the organisation is effective in delivering care?
3) If other organisations need help as well, are you giving so much to the NKF now that you can't afford to give to other organisations as well?
4) Between TT Durai and yourself, who would have better at creating a robust organisation for delivering delivering first class care for a large number of people who would have otherwise been debilitated by their disease?

Whilst criticising the motives of other folk, do have a look at your own.

:thumbsd:
1) Do you need to ask this question? Why you don't ask Durai is in NKF to help needy people or get a job for himself?
2) If spending just 11% or less of the money (according to zaobao, last time official figure is 0.52 cents out of every dollar donated) donated on patient care is effective?
3) Em.... that's good, according to NVPC survey early this year, RICH fellow contribute MUCH LESS percentage of their revenue to the charity than poor fellow. Why is it so?
4) This question is very hard to prove or argue, as the time will not be able to roll back to let others other than TT durai to do the job. But to me it's more like *** propaganda machine at victorious, pay the right man the right job, but is he the right person? No way to know now.

All these years I was never being convinced into donating to NKF at those free health check-up or blood donation drive...I alway suspect of the fundings $$$ going to where.
Nothing is free...just like TCS providing those actor/actress..everything...those stuffs cost a bomb!

and for that person name what T Dubai, I feel that even after resigned he have more than enough money to donate and live comfortably well for an average lifestyle for at least 30years base on his past income!

OT!!

Ya just wan to add some views, since they already have so much $$ as reserve, y they do not use the $ wisely n invest them so as to let it grow. Would'nt it be better than to keep asking ppl donate $. Also many ppl can donate $ to other charities such as cancer foundation/society. Just hope that ppl do not discriminate other charities becos of the black Sheep (Durai). Eventually the aim is to help ppl rite

 

[nemesis32]

The way things are... the best option will be use the reserves to set up an endowment fund, put part of it in FD, part in bonds, part in high yield blue chip shares and earn dividend, interest etc for day to day exp...

I am sure this is what Gerard Ee will do.. (btw, he's my ex-boss and i already expected he will be named interim ceo/chairman). He's a well repected fellow and i am sure donations will flow in again after this debacle...

Impt thing is how things are going forward, how much donations will be channelled to patients etc... A means test is still necessary as the poor needs more help than the rich. Is this fair? I think so, as long as the means test is reasonable and not keep those middle class or poor squeezed....

This article is very well written and concise...

It matters because the people want their $ to reach the needy, and not so that Durai can travel first class and make $600k per year. The more money Durai takes home, the less money there is available for patients. And the donor is giving the money for the patients, not for Durai to take home.

Hi guys.

As Darren has mentioned in the consolidated NKF thread, we feel that CS should move on from the NKF episode; should you wish to carry on I'm sure you can still find other forums to do so.

The thread is hereby closed and I seek your understanding.
