So How Does Our Second Quarter Performance Looks Like?

We'll give you 15 seconds to guess what company is this performance graph associated with?

Hehehe. Eleh, you guys know because you have been following this blog. (Thank you very much if you have, by the way!)

Well, anyway, our point is that imagine if this is some big corporate company or organisation' sales achievement or revenue performance or market standing. Imagine if this was your company and you are presenting this graph to your boss. We think, in the real world, where accountability is well.. accounted for - this company would've been in the red, go banckrupt, folded, gulung tikar or the shareholders and the board would've fire someone's ass and wipe out a the whole department responsible for such a performance. Someone would then call for general auditing and maybe the ACA would move in.

But no surprises here. This is the ranking of the Malaysian National Football Team. This is how we have been since 1993. If we were talking about real business, about losses and earnings, about money, we'd be talking about some serious excrement here.

But hey, this is Malaysia. No one in FAM has seriously have their position threatened. Some have even been promoted from where they were since 1993. Promotion while your organisations performance is like this! The National Team has been disbanded before. Players have been blamed. Coaches have been replaced. And yet FAM is still the same.

And the best thing, you get another RM 12 million in funding to basically repeat the same performance that you have been 'achieveing for the last 15 years. A bonus! If this was a real company, this is really a generous one. How much have we spent in 'developing' football in the country?

What would YOU do if you were a shareholder of this company?
