our "dearest" nkf fraud
hm... today i'm gonna talked bout one of sg's hottest topic right now... e NKF saga... tragedy i wld say... n hey u! if u're actually baffled by this, GO READ THE NEWSPAPER RIGHT NOW!!! or haf u been followin SO closely to huang na's trial tt u've actually missed this one out?
anw, back to nkf... o my gosh! wad a shame, wad a scam! wad an abuse of trust, something so powerful yet fragile... n for NKF to win back this trust, i believe sincerity and in their case TRANSPARENCY will help. who raised $67m but gave only $36m for charitable expenses? no prizes for guessing, it's THE NKF...(found frm their own website...this figures r for e 2003 show), so where did the other half go to? mr durai's dearest $990 taps? his OWN car's expenses? o i know! HIS PAY! how can we forget his $600,000 per yr salary n tt delicious bonus? they shd learn frm our government... since they're pretty transparent n we citizens "trust" them so much tt we expect them to help us with EVERYTHING in life, so it seems... so, transparency e ans?
anw, frankly speakin, my family isnt really their 'victims' as we rarely donate to them now...*guess my dad shd b gloating over this now?* we're SO OVERDOSED n sick of charity shows and we do start wonderin do they really need tt much money tt badly? r they tt desperate? come on, it's 3000...oops! 2000 ppl... give others a chance since u all haf enuff for 30-40yrs! Note: not jus 3yrs mr durai... anw, i've even received an sms frm the nkf for donation, by lurin me with tt grand prize of theirs. so, do ppl still donate bcos they wan to? or issit bcos of e prizes?
anw, i was out tt sunday nite havin dinner with my family n i was wondering, "so all these ppl in the hawker centre cant b bothered too?" but tt's besides e pt... i'm actually amazed nkf still manages to raise tt much money yrs after yrs... soon, in aug, we'll haf our president's charity, then followed by another cancer show by the sg cancer society in sep i tink... (all performed by the same ppl, same thingy... ) so will sg still donate generously? let's jus wait n c but i'm afraid not anymore... btw, i still cannot understand y NKF wanna do a cancer show? y compete with e sg cancer society? y nt combine forces instead? so many qns, no ans...
*btw, jus a curious note, i wonder how they actually explained to e 3 stars who performed jus now durin e part3 show(c how desperate they r?!?!3 parts?!)... like y it's changed frm a donation-raising thingy to a "jiayou"-n-thank-u show... truth or "due to some unforeseen...blar" Surely e latter but i believe e 3stars shd haf heard something bout this whole thingy? jus really curious... n i heard frm my bro(dunno how he knows one...) tt e show actually still raise $6000+? if it's true, i'm amazed they even collected tt amt...
but still, i do hope ppl wld still donate despite this exposed fraud... nt to nkf...of cos... jus for now or forever i dunno... will e trust ever b gained again? of cos sg can forgive but can we forget? or will ppl now b too suspicious to even make any donations? pls dun cos e real victims of this whole incident n boycott r all those in need of help... so let's still continue helpin them, like how we haf always done... ;>
