any companies who pay their directors $25,000 must be making
significant profits from their BUSINESS operations!! NKF is a
CHARITABLE organisation, the money they received is not PROFITS, it
is donation!!
it is not too much for a Business director to buy a $10,000 toilet
seat, for he is entitled to spend what the makes, but NKF directors
are using money donated by the general public for those who are
sick!! This is clearly an abuse of public fund.
I stopped NKF donation three yrs ago when my friend met the CEO on
first class travelling. NKF has not business overseas, if the
travel is necessary for meetings, why first class? many ppl todays
are travelling for business on econ, not even business class.
Since then I have received several calls from telemarketers
speaking non local english with strong indian accents. Twice they
asked why did I stopped "helping the poor", they hanged up abruptly
when I told them it was my decisions on how I help.
NKF is today a professional company, using the sick and poor, to
appeal to the soft and sympathetic singaporean, in soliciting
donation to achieve a financial target. There is no spirit and soul
of a charitable organisation.
I have since donated to the Ren Ci Hospital, not much, but at least
I believe the buddhists truely want to do charity.
If singaporean really want to voice our objection on such abuse,
don't need to go on the street to protest, hoping to meet riot
police, just stop donating to NKF for one year, patients certainly
won't die as a result.
