Hello, I'm kinda new here. So go easy on me.
I've been at Bel'Air since the beginning. Watched it grow to what
it is today. I was also there during the split between LB and BA.
So I know what is the true story behind both the companies. I have
no idea how the stories got so warped and bended. What some of you
said is true. And some exagerrated.
Back then, the Younger brother, Mr Kenneth Huang was the CEO of LB
Asia, and of the Network Company called Sathelyne France. He was
given the sole agency to distribute LB products in Asia Only. The
problem we faced while doing LB was that the factory and HQ back in
France did not fully support MLM. They allowed parallel retail
import into Singapore. That caused a lot of confusion and
difficulty for the distributors who joined us. Another problem
faced was that the burner heads would always clog up. Due to the
humidity of our country and region, the heads cant work effectively
here, and is prone to clogging and defects. When we called back to
France HQ for tech support, they gave us none. There was a lot of
supply chain probs too. As France side shipping was always
priotised for the retailers more than the MLM company. Lastly, LB
was unwilling to expand into new product ranges, such as facial
washes etc...
So we dropped the LB agency, and setup Bel Air. A few of the
researchers left LB to join us as well. So we setup our own
factory, R & D facilities etc. At first, there was a lot of
confusion on both sides. Thoes who wanted to join us can join us.
Thoes who choose to stay stayed. WE NEVER FORCE ANYONE TO JOIN US!
We were totally independent, running our own show. Our product
range is not more expensive than LB's. Price wise, its almost the
same. Anyway, after we build up our foundation in Singapore, LB and
the remaining distributors setup Lampe Berger Singapore and have
been black mouthing us since. Its true that in a way, we did
imitate the product. But one can also say we improved on a 100 year
old stagnant arometherapy lampe. It was Lampe Berger CEO who said
that MLM could never work in Singapore or Asia. We proved him
wrong.
Let me ask you guys this. How could our government allow an
imitation, a "pirated" product, a scam be a main of NDP 04? Trust
me, I was involved in NDP 04. And I know how sponsors are selected.
Its not because of money. Its because of the reputation of the
business.
I guess none of you would believe what i said. Most of you would
dismiss what i've said, saying I'm in Bel Air, thus bias. To be
honest, I dont work as a distributor in Bel Air. And I'm not a
staff. But I was there seeing how hard our Asia CEO worked to build
up this business, and never did she do it fpr profit. So I know
these things.
