Dogs and us


Ever wonder why dogs are such obedient pets to humans?

I think I may have the answer.

This morning, I was sitting in the car outside Ang Mo Kio's NTUC, waiting for my mum to buy some groceries. There was a young lady waiting with her dog outside the supermarket as well.

Five minutes later, a man (presumely the lady's dad) exits NTUC with 3 bags of poultry. The dog sniffs at the bag, looks up at its owner, and follow him dutifully.

Do you get what I am trying to say/imply?

I mean, here we come back from a supermarket with the most amazing haul; packed chicken, sliced meat, fish, and even half a pig...

They must think we are the greatest hunters on earth!

The news of the week isn't it?

Shocking relevations of the CEO's pay, overexaggeration of its need for more donations, its misuse of public donations...

Personally, I don't think it is such a big deal that the CEO is earning $600000 anually. Afterall, aren't our ministers among the highest paid people in the country? And aren't they paid from the hard earned money of Singaporeans as well? And since both the government and the NKF serve the public, what's wrong with its CEO earning high wages?

NKF isn't SPCA. NKF is not a simple non-profit organization. Rather, it is more of a corporate charity business. Making use of media celebrities to capture the public's attention, using condo units and cars as baits for more 'donations', you got to accept that NKF isn't run by a group of salary-less volunteers who are passionate for their cause.

They are employees who get paid more as they garner more donations. Love it or hate it, although a portion of your money goes into their pockets and golden taps, a portion of it still goes to the kidney patients.

Who still needs your donations.
