Singapore is now on the gobal spot light....:embrass:

from LP to Peanut..... ;p

ps: if you pay peanut to the CEO, is that mean we have a "monkey" running NKF operations???

 

[weg]

i wonder how the tcs stars involved in the coming cancer show will react... if i were one of them, how am i gg to bring myself to encourage people to donate money??

 

[swing123]

Yap..agreed...but damn..from this incident, you can see so many people planning to stop donating to NKF already...

Can you imagine that, becos of these people who managed the funds wrongly, it indirectly caused those who really need the money becos no one wants to donate liao...

very very sad to see this...NKF should revised their entire management... :angry:

i won;t be too worried....NKF has >S$200 million in reserve.....

They have reserve for at least 30yrs.
Can start donating to them after 20yrs, in 2025.
Maybe by that time, today's peanut will worth $600K then. :bsmilie:

For now, just donate to KDF for the time being. And see what's NKF's decision on transpency. The patients will not suffer, dun worry.

 

[swing123]

When the staff strength is so big, you will need a capable CEO to manage them and thus S$25k is not excessive. It's above average but not excessive.

Like Nisa, i don't defend NKF, just pointing out the facts.

maybe if we look from another viewpoint, if flying 1st class vs Business class is an issue - get Mr Durai a private jet, then there will be no more such issue ;p

Assuming an unsubsidized treatment costs $2500 a month, a bonus of $300000 can provide for 10 more patients.

Monkey wouldn't ask for $900 plus tap and $$$$ dummy ley. :bsmilie:

The TCS star maybe happy cos ithey are pretty sick n tired.....almost do 1 charity show every other 2 months and they have to act breathless in the aftershow interview.....give them a break la.

Dunno if those Oversea artists whom are supposed to perform tomorrow knows abt this. And if they do, what are they reaction.... :think:
If for me, I will just pay MediaCorp whatever penalty for no show, and fly back home.

I wonder if Durex dare to walk on street now or not.. Angry public and relative of kidney patients will be watching him.

Hi to all.

In view of the on-going NKF saga and as a result of the numerous NKF-related threads, we've decided to merge all of them under one banner.

Please also note that all future NKF-related threads will be merged into this one, so please have your discussion here.

 

[AstralPrue]

To put things into perspective, I don't even earn in a year what Mr Happy gets in a month.

I would REALLY love to have some of that peanuts. :lovegrin: :kiss:

 

[yowch]

While the average Joe may feel that $25,000 a month and 12 months of bonus may be a LARGE sum, this is not really the matter. Yes it is a LARGE sum, I feel envy myself, but this is really not the problem.

The problem is, why do we let a guy who is all out for personal gains lead a charity? He should be leading the biggest financing company, or the largest bank. He goes about trying to justify his entitlements, twists his words around for the tap, leads a bunch of executives who has no qualms about false/inaccurate report, and SUES others for pointing out their faults.

It is really Durai's intentions and motivation that places him in such poor position to be a leader of a charity. And the patron... oh... And NKF board is fully behind the CEO... oh... [deeply saddened]. Probably the entire board MUST stay behind him, as they have all a cut of the cake.

those overseas artists are very very well paid during the shows... that is one of the reasons why each show cost like a million or more to promote and stage. smart tactic though, get big names, can get donations faster.
