This entry is regarding the NKF thingy.... Just can't imagine a CEO of a charity organisation can earn 500-600k annually. If that's the case everyone would like to be offered that job. 500-600k can buy and do many things in life. Like what tt Durai did was he bough first class air tix, lumosines??? (what the ST has reported eralier be4 they aplogised)or rather many cars...high class luxurious interior decoration for the NKF building and so on.... wat an ass!!! Those money shld be put in buying the dialysis machine and its applications for the patient.
Like its initial, Durai must be T.T now....(found this funny blogger: minorityman) and the 500-600k was described as PEANUT from SM Goh's wife. Pls hor, not many can earn 500-600k annually the average is 20-30k niaz... and if tt was PEANUT, our 20-30k is "dirt"????? we, as the public cum the callers are actually calling the hotlines to feed that guys mouth siaz... and the rest of the sum den goes to helping the patient.
This NKF thing has duped everyone for 10 over years. It has lost its meaning of charity since it has these lucky draw stuff and u cn win condo and cars....even cash!!! Some ppl are actually using it to bet trying their luck and not full heartedly donating money for the poor patients. 10 plus years ago each call was onli 50 cents or $1 now its $5, $8++++, what i wan to say here is that the economy and the commoner's life still has not restored and prosper, the hotline are getting more expenisve. My family has stopped calling for 5 years or so due to the fact that every year they will put up this show and moreover part 1 and part 2....nit to forget each call is not CHEAP!!! My surrounding friends' family has stop calling and some din even call be4!!! Not kidding but it's true. Whenever i saw the number of calls reflected on the right hand cornor of the TV screen, i would wonder issi true??? 3M singaporeans all calling meh??? and sometime jump that fast. And everyone gt so much money??? Even at time of crisis??? Nobody has proven to us that the number on top opf the tv screen is true and hw it operated and stuff....
Most singaporeans are the 'monkey see monkey do' type, when someone starts a trend they will follow.... so does many of the charity organisation. T.T Durai was selected by the government if i was not wrong, part of this incident must be blamed on them... and they did not setup a precautions or wat regulations to check the orgianisation finacial status like many company did..... Nobody to check on them... It is too late now to send ur taxman to check on them...
Is the mordern charity approach a right way??? Or shld it be more conservative??? Its up to you to decide. More and more flag days on the street not to mention wkdays too.... to me the mordern approach has becoming more like a PEST!!! eh I still donate but onli to some organisation.
I hope aft this incident the government should shape up the orgainsation structure for charity and to prevent such a thing form happening again.
