Bro,

I suggest taking a nap ... when you are awake, it's news time!

We should all cancel monthly contribution to show them that their action is not condoned. Only when the management apologise and come clear with their accounts to the public should we decide to support them. In the meantime, dig into reserve. Isn't that what its meant for?

[qazwer]

From wat I know, not even when you're bankrupt!

Bro,

btw, how much does it cost for a regular 1 time treatment of dialysis?

[Chris]

Alright...tonight must watch news. Surely the reporters interview public on their views. But then again Medi*co*p is partner with him.

All you guys out there, we ONLY hear the portion of $1.8million for a CEO for 3 yrs.

WHAT ABOUT his subordinates and so on. Those below him?, senior executives, 6mths bonus? than junior staff, 3 to 4 mths bonus?

Then HOW much they have got annually??? Imagine with so much reserves, then we can also imagine, the total amount is maybe 1/3 of the reserves.

Then how much it is!

most of us here don't even have $1.8M for salary for a life time.

Remember he said that he recruits people from overseas. How much do you think he pays them. I seen the people at the HQ. All very well groomed and presentable. 6 months is nothing surprising. And there we are slogging like pigs for the 13th month.

This Mr Durai should be fired.

He should sell Durian in Geylang instead.

If SPH can dig deeper, you will be surprised on the findings about the chairman too.

My friend use to work for NKF as a nurse.

They dont get such bonus benefit. Only 13th month Bonus.

Those many months bonus are paid for the admin staff.

She resigned a few years ago as she feel NKF was ridiculous organisation that benefit the management themsleves.

I met the senior management from KDF at a ceremony where they got a cheque of $20K from a country club. Guess what, they came in a van which they also use for ferrying patients. Compare that to travelling in first class!!!

[Chris]

I think today all forums are talking about the same thing. If every forumer thinks like us and cancel their contribution, then there will be impact. Anyone here from the banks? How's the situation?

[XPeriment 626]

Yes indeed, many already intended to cancel the contribution. Next, will see how medi#Co$p react as they are partners for many years.

Heard even in kopitiam, cafes, etc, everyone felt cheated and complaining. Declaring not to donate and cancelling their giro.

I heard this rumour that Mediacorp recieves 30% of the amount raised from some reliable source, but dunno how true!

[Nic a Jon]

its not that they receive 30 pct....

rumor was that NKF spend aboout 30 pct on adverts and campaigning for funds

Hi bro.. that is why nowadays they have 3 shows to raise funds.... and not enough... they have another 3 shows to raise fund for cancer patient... and all this money... who knows what percentage goes to the high management salary, bonus, taps, toilet bowls...etc... and those really in needs for the money... (such as RAV sis...) don't get the subsidy becos she could make a monthly earning of 2k... and the CEO still got to cheek to say that it is his entitlements... and what so big deal being a CEO where he don't even has his humanity sense for the needy... could you imagine the 12 months bonus... which is 300k could help out how many patients....and 1.8million for 3 years could save how many broken lives.

Worst because of this all big CE...Os.... people will lose their faith with all this charity organisation and stop or cancel their donation ... and in the end who is the loser... the patient themselves.... as for the CEO... ahhh.. he basically can look for another job... but the impact on the patient is huge where all this donation is important to them....

This is not suprising bro.

They have to pay air time slot to mediacorp for airing such show.

Even Telcos company do earn something which they claim administrattive charges.

[[PrinCesS (",)]]

seem like 'we' are the biggest fools.

The best part, the stupid telcos also profiteering, $0.80 for admin charge??? isn't that too much?!
