IPC means that companies can donate and get tax benefits loh.. on a personal level, it doesnt matter if ren ci regains that title now does it?

Personally, I would donate (not a diplomatic ans). After all the patients do need help and yeah, if we can afford it why not. :rolleyes:

Personally I have stopped donating to charity after the NKF saga knowing that for every dollar that I donate only less than 10 cents reached the charity itself. Here in the Ren Ci case its also not right knowing that the Venerable living occassionally in a posh condo,drives around and owns an expensive watch and has companies under his name.Ain't a monk suppose to give up the materialistic world and live in a temple?

seriously, after the NKF issue, everyone thought Renci is the only biggest trustful charity.

it has proven otherwise.

i rather take a walk down orchard rd and empty my wallet to the $1 tissue sellers.

ppl who are dumb enough to donate to these "charities" deserved to be cheated.

the monk can say whatever he like.

he is just not doing what he preach.

if you trust him, dont doubt him.
if you doubt him, don't trust him.

according to paper reports, monk co-owns the posh condo with other men. and we always thought monk lives in a temple. what an enlightenment!!:confused:

we should all stop donating to charity. politically, do you think the government will allow these beneficiaries to "die" if we all stopped donating? let them (PAP) deal with the poor and hungry - that's what they are paid millions for.
