Do U Require Another Increment? (D.U.R.A.I)
Welcome to the media circus
I finally got home over the Chistmas weekend and managed to catch up on the news of the past week (I am media-deprived in hall) and it took me a good part of 4 hours to wade through the blitzkreig-bombshell-shitload of articles surrounding KPMG’s damning report on “the old” NKF. Durai and party are in for a world of hurt… They mayn’t have technically run afoul of whatever little regulation they had, but the way I see it, it’s only a matter of time before The Good People cave in to public pressure for blood and dole out a hefty slap on the proverbial wrist. Be honest though… don’t you wish you were employed by the NKF as fund raising staff before the shit hit the fan?
Fun Fact: It’s interesting to note that barely a week after the report is out, NKF’s Wikipedia entry has already been updated with up-to-the-minute information. Look there for a good see-all of the case from start to end.
Fun Fact: KPMG was also reported to have charged heavily discounted rates for this investigation, with the Straits Times quoting a suit saying that it’s their way of performing their “share of National Service”… bah. Smells like a carefully calculated move to push PwC’s rep further down the drain…
