Before you look at NKF , look at yourself !
-
Donating to win $5,000 cash , $10,000 cash or condominium , nothing different from putting your $$ in the casino table and hoping to win something big
giving $5 to win a condominium , that makes you a gambler as well ! -
That also makes you a viewer who likes to watch pple in danger/doing difficult stunts before you are even willing to donate !
-
What are the chances that you'll win by calling in to donate? I believe that most callers donate because they truly want to contribute. If by donating is a sort of gambling, we might as well go buy raffle tickets.
Look at the Ren Ci charity show. It doesn't offer any rewards whatsoever, but it still manages to reach its target year after year. Singaporeans don't need any inducements to show that they care, but it really sucks to see some charitable organisations becoming mere revenue-raking entities. -
Hmm... i dont even watch it
The world is overpopulated
Even hospital practise euthanasia
Its NOT courageous to live on and fight illness
if one survival is an extreme burden to the society/family
True courage, is one who dare to face death (ya debatable..)
and some evil organizations
took advantage of one illness
to scam the kindhearted public.
What is wrong with dying?
The money to treat ONE cancer patient
or to perform ONE kidney transplant
could possibly feed a family of 10 in Africa for the next 50 years -

couldnt be bothered with the artistes' silly stunts. -
any other condition need to qualify a cancer patient for NKF fund? NKF will help any cancer patient or also look at their total family income?
-
there are many criterias.
-
hope those criterias make sense.
-
they should leave the cancer fund-raising job to the SCS.... or they should just donate part of their $$ to the cancer fund themselves...

It is u dumb idiots who are greedy , not NKF
U wanted to win cars, condos and donated.
It is u idiots who should be blamed. not NKF
It is u idiots who made Durian Cee- EE-Ho buy gold tap.Not NKF -
of course I never even call once since started !
-
i will heed your advice to look at myself.
it was stupid of me to donate.
i pledged that i will not donate a single cent to any charity ever again. -
Well, I haven't been watching NKF charity shows for the last 2-3 years. I haven't made a NKF call in the last 5 years. So no, I don't think I'm a gambler- much less wanting to win one of their prizes.Originally posted by SMAPLionHeart:Donating to win $5,000 cash , $10,000 cash or condominium , nothing different from putting your $$ in the casino table and hoping to win something big

One lesson is enuff to tell me that they are nothing but liars anyway. -
I've never made a single donation to NKF before - notwithstanding those donation cards forced unto me when I was a student.
I was highly irked when they came out with all those condos and cars and contest prizes... all the more reason not to donate.
Unfortunately, as much as I would like to see zero calls to this weekend's show as a show of protest, there will still be some of those who'll still call for the sake of winning prizes.
Goes to show how shallow our society has become.

dangerous ? its part of acting. you really think the sword sharon au walk on are sharp ?Originally posted by SMAPLionHeart:That also makes you a viewer who likes to watch pple in danger/doing difficult stunts before you are even willing to donate !

Uh...criteria is plural of criterion.Originally posted by dragg:there are many criterias. -
