NKF sues SPH on defamation
-
let the new lot do their work.. by their actions and deeds, we will know their intent..Originally posted by tranquil2:what's really on their agenda? hmmmmmmm...
-
yea, mr khaw could be the chairman too..
-
well, actually, i trust Khaw.. it's a gut-feel thing..
he did well with his ministry so far -
Let's put in the reality...Originally posted by av98m:The kidney patients will NOT suffer any more than they already are if we stop donating for the next 10 or 20 years because:
1. NKF's reserves can last that long in a worst case scenario
2. Most people who apply for subsidies get rejected anyway, under their current criteria. You have to be near destitute to qualify for their subsidies.
Don't get taken in any more by the lies. By stopping donations we are NOT making kidney patients suffer.
40 yrs reserve? At the rate of increasing kidney patients, 40 yrs might end up 20 yrs unless we take care of our health -
20 years is more than the 3 years NKF professed they had
p.s. isn't that like Durai saying that the taps were not $1000, they were only $990!

NKF's Board and its CEO TT Durai to step down
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/157917/1/.html
SINGAPORE : The NKF Board and its CEO, Mr TT Durai, have offered to resign in order to give Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan a free hand on restoring public confidence.
In a statement, the Health Ministry says they have requested the minister's assistance to re-constitute a new Board and appoint a new CEO.
In the interest of the dialysis patients and the NKF, Mr Khaw has agreed to help in this effort.
The Ministry statement says over the next few days, the government will appoint an interim Board to ensure the continuous operation of NKF's various dialysis centres.
It will also work on medium-term tasks, including forming a new Board, appointing a new CEO, reviewing accounting practices, funding needs, and pricing and subsidy policies.
Pending completion of these reviews, the statement says the NKF will suspend all active fund-raising activities.
The Chairman and members of the Board, together with its CEO, had approached Mr Khaw for advice on how to respond to the public reaction to the court case between the NKF and the Singapore Press Holdings.
Mr Khaw stressed two immediate priorities: caring for NKF dialysis patients should not be disrupted in any way and the shattered public confidence must be restored. - CNA/de -
There should be another press conference on peanuts.
-
To them are peanuts but to us normal Singaporeans 600K is a very big amount which we most likely will not get in our life...
-
well, there is some truth in the 3 year, and that is if they have to fully pay for paitent's fees, think about it, if they do that, would you then donate?Originally posted by the Bear:20 years is more than the 3 years NKF professed they had
p.s. isn't that like Durai saying that the taps were not $1000, they were only $990! -
Mrs Goh will step down as patron as well....
Heard it from CNA live.... -
certainly it'll take some time to regain public confidence... mrs goh also relinquish her position as patron...
-
but it wasn't.. and they knew it wasn't.. isn't that lying on the part of the NKF?
oh well... hope the new lot and the new patron would remember their mission..Originally posted by snk86:well, there is some truth in the 3 year, and that is if they have to fully pay for paitent's fees, think about it, if they do that, would you then donate? -
Well... That's 1 fact thoughOriginally posted by the Bear:20 years is more than the 3 years NKF professed they had

But what I really want to put is, take good care of your health esp in our sort of lifestyle -
The ball now is thrown to our dear Health Minister Mr Khaw. Let's wait and hear what real actions been put in place and whether they are transparent for all members of Singapore.
What our Health Minister does is to try and salvage the situation... but there is still a need for those ppl to explain their misleading information, extravangant expenses, etc... A lot of donors needs further explanation and further knowledge of whether there r further activities in the organisation that r undisclose to the general public.
Truth is truth, Lie will not lead to anything except self-destruction. (A matter of time) -
We shall see how many calls the show will gather should the show is going on...
-
i have a gut-feeling that khaw will clean it up...
the whole SARS episode showed that he wasn't going to stand for coverups.. -
Wah lan eh.....
T_T Durai kanna banned!
Din do anything wrong leh...... dont so cruel to me
nvm. Now i'm "Durai T_T"
To clarify the misconception :
NKF's Board and its CEO TT Durai to step down
Unknow the many, i did NOT offer to step down.
I'm being forced to stepdown.
The board of directors believe that my resignation is for the best interest of NKF. More like 'best of interest for the BOD'
Well... you guys dont need a CEO brain to realise that
I"M BEING MADE THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB, A SCAPEGOATE
Well... to wind up in this manner, is kind of disgrace and disappoinment for my family, for my friends, ancestors and those who have supported me so many years.
What disappoint me, is that the board of directors WALK OUT on me.
They know that further investigations will led to more 'secrets' unknow to the public. I did not even expose them in the court, and yet they treat me like this.
Boo........ T_T -
Why do I still hear the NKF ad and its all about winning some prizes....
This is evil and horrendous -
I am glad Mr Khaw is helping in this issue. He is one of the few leaders whom I think is still very much in-touch with the working class.Originally posted by the Bear:i have a gut-feeling that khaw will clean it up...
