How hard is it to be a chairman of a government authority?
I am not talking about being appointed as a chairman but, instead, carrying out duties as a chairman of a government authority.
What kind of capability must such a person possess before he is qualified to be appointed as a chairman?
I do not know. I do not know any such chairman personally, so I really can’t comment.
But I would think that, at least, the chairman must be able to speak English clearly (if not fluently), and handle a press conference confidently. I think that is a minimum requirement.
If he does not know how to read financial statements, I can understand. After all, not everyone receives training in accountancy.
If he does not know how to write a formal letter, I can understand. After all, he can always instruct a lawyer or other qualified persons to do it on his behalf.
If he does not know how to manage, I can still reluctantly understand. After all, there must be a dozen of managers under him to manage the office for him.
But, if he can’t express himself clearly or can’t speak like a chairman, and handle a press conference with confidence – a task which he must personally perform – then I can’t understand why such a person was appointed as a chairman in the first place.
People are now asking questions on why PKFZ lost so much money. They are perusing the PWC’s report to find out the reasons.
I am too busy to read the entire report, which can be downloaded F. O. C. However, if you really want to know why PKFZ screwed up so badly, you really don’t need to waste your time reading the thick report. Just look at the person appointed to head the Port Klang Authority, and you will know why.
See the video below.
You still need to read the report? I have better things to do.
