are they just not showing the figures or are the lines all suspended?Originally posted by andros71:The show is going on.

heard it is being suspended. so tonight is only purely performance.
and the audience looks abit "dead" tonight.
Maybe they got their own staff to fill the seats. -
yucks! sharon aw!
-
I would like to see a public apology from the old NKF board and the CEO, and also from the you know who on the Peanuts remark.
-
The show is still on, i think because not enough time to cancel the show.
Mr Minister only held his press conference 1/2 hour before the show to say stop all fund raising activities.
But tonight, the show is quite different. No phone dailing hand signals. No numbers to call. It's just purely an entertainment show.
And yes, the whole NKF board including chairman and Mr Durai will be stepping down within the next few days with a transitional board in place. Durai also stated that even if Mr Minister asked him to stay on in the board as a board member, he wouldn't. Even Mrs Goh has backtracked and said that she will be stepping down as patron.
Actually Mr Khaw is doing a very big favour for NKF. He has stepped out to assure the public that he is looking into the matter (before someone sets NKF building on fire), and is rallying support from the media on their behalf, calling for forward-looking measures rather than blame pinning and finger pointing.
I have been thinking the past few days what a PR nightmare this is going to be for NKF. With Durai saying the most unbecoming things even after the trail and Mrs Goh, NKF Patron no less, making the extremely unnecessary "peanuts" comment. This is a surprising softening of stance and with the whole board taking the fall. And now with Mr Khaw's support and assurance, it seems there's a chance of NKF emerging out of this in one piece afterall, be i doubt it will ever be restore to it's former "glory" and, perhaps, haughtiness.
One of the rare examples of local media and public effecting a very drastic twist in fate to a high profile entity, uninitiated by the government.
Goes to show the kind of power public media wield (e.g. the inflated number of patients of NKF has always been known, as announced in parliment sittings, and available but has never attracted attention till the media chooses to feature it.)
I guess this is why Singapore's govt keep such a tight leash on the media. I bet last friday, Mr Durai never thought that this week he is going to bought down.
So fun!! Again! Again! -

NKF is unlikely to be brought down like that.. after all they did do a lot of good for the dialysis patients.. also read about the time when NKF could only choose 1 out of 30+ patients to live.. while leaving the rest to take morphine and die... that was why NKF is obsessed about reserves.. so that the above event never happen again..
But then somewhere along the line, NKF over did it... with a surplus of money I bet they werent prepared to handle so much money.. then money corrupts.. then T.T Durai joined the dark side of the Force .. haiz -
haha a total revamp at nkf.but i really wonder how many will still donate even if the whole board is changed.

He is a damn good man, can tell, but i think because he is so involved with NKF events that he cannot see it from outside anymore. So he's very emotional about it. -

Wats the point of asking for ur donations back?
It doesn't feel gd being cheated, hopefully all their patients will stand to benefit from the donations.
The truth is out.. a lesson learnt. Now, move on..
