No kidney, no heart, no liver...

Did you guys go "WAHLAO AYE!" when you read the recent NKF reports with KPMG's audits?

I DID!!!!

"only 10 cents of every charity dollar went to subsidise patients' direct treatment costs"

Like what the ? 10 cents!!!!!!!! Not even 20 cents or 30 cents? But 10 cents?? So if i donate 10 cents during flag day, only 1 cent goes to the patient? Waht! One cent is not even a proper denomination in Singapore now!

I feel sorry for those who donate their hard-earned money to Durai & his team's pockets. C'mon who on earth pays someone after she quits the company? It's super ridiculous.. & conversion of OT to monetary rewards? Possible but such a big amount?? Like hello it's a charity organisation, not an MNC! I doubt even MNC give so much... And a study trip to LA? Pleaseeee sick patients need better healthcare, more subsidies on medicine, welfare benefits for family & school, not better entertainment ideas for fund-raising projects!!!!!!!!!

Sharon Au must be crying in Japan now if she reads these reports. For all her dagger-stunts, squeezing into aircon..and singing & appealing to the public for all these years...

And feel sad for those who have to clean up the mess left behind by these irresponsible people who are only interested in using company's interests to personal gains.

Kudos to Gerald Ee & the current board for being so brave to pick up the pieces & still continue the work to help the patients.

And Singaporeans really quite wad lar sometimes. How can they call the staff at the current NKF & scold them? I doubt they know much abt the situation or were in any position to change matters. If wanna call & rant, shld at least call Durai ma.

Btw, anyone got his number?

  • haha..no..i don't have his number. one thing i do know, 10 cents can't buy you anything unless you go to a primary school canteen, and 10 cents is just 3 minutes worth of talking time at the public phones. to think that we were all made to donate through their donation cards in primary and secondary school. the new NKF has lots to do to boost public confidence in them again.but Gerard Ee's doing a fine job! thumbs up to him!

  • as much as i hate durai..i somehow feel that such things cannot be going on without the government not knowing..he must have offended some people higher than himself to be suddenly thrown into the spotlight..and i suspect that he is just made a scapegoat of the circumstances..what may be the real reason no one may actually know..but greed does evil things to one's heart and soul..and even if he and his team are scapegoats, it still takes soul-less people to accept donations for their own private usage!

  • Actually it was thrown into the limelight becos of the lawsuit b/w SPH & Durai. Tat's how suddenly this whole thing came to the public.

    But it's an awakening to Singaporeans tat such corruption/cheating can exist in squeaky clean Singapore, huh? Suddenly even charity sounds like a "bad word"
