committee members' struggle

i'm afraid soon we will lose 2 more committee members, due to accusation of bribery.

we hv lost 1 few months ago, very committed & capable 1, after he found out residents suspect he took some allowance, he resigned. great loss for us.

perhaps it's price to pay for all these improvement the JMB hv brought to Vista Condo, almost behind all the size-able projects, certain JMB member, especially committed & active 1, will be accused of bribery.

i hv few cases brought to my attention in the past, all w/o proof, such as "i heard somebody who also heard from somebody that somebody is making money...", but when i try to investigate, nobody can actually tell that who started it, or eyewitness it, but the problem is, it hurts the member who was accused.

i can't give the warranty that all members r clean, but as far as i'm concern, they r clean coz i hv no proof or eyewitness yet. (at personal level, i trust each 1 of them)

so far, 4 committee members suffer these kind of accusation since JMB start operating actively in Feb'09, 1st person got hit when we were interviewing & choosing vendor, 2nd person was 1 who help to get plumber to fix all the leaking water tank, 3rd person was getting the contractor to fixed the piping & roof leaking problem, 4th person was accused coz of new parking area.

the fact is, we hv interviewed vendor or compared few quotation before we decided to pass the project to certain contractors, especially for big projects.

(now we r dealing w/ new report, i hope we will get the eyewitness for it if it's true)

can any1 suggest to us how to stop this so that the active & committed members can continue to serve the community of Vista Condo?

Thanks.

Cheng,
It is sad to hear such things occuring and even sadder if the person is indeed difitnah.

However, each committee members should know that this is high profile position and they have to prepare for such accusations. Memang susah dielak.

Yes,

Saya setuju dengan first komen yg di berikan. Menang tidak boleh dielakkan. Ini jawatan berkaitan dengan ketelusan dan kejujuran.

Apa yang patut ialah, seseorang tersebut patut tidak mudah kecil hati terhadap segala tuduhan.

Sekiranya anda yakin anda betul, sapa2 pun x boleh gugat anda. Semua tingkah laku ade bukti die sendiri.

Sekiranya orang lain cakap2 kite makan duit, walaupun kite x buat memang rasa marah jugak. tapi dalam hal pengurusan x boleh biar emosi mengatasi tingkah laku anda.

Selagi x ade bukti kukuh, cakap kosong x guna.

Penghuhi >10tahun

Hi ALL JMB Committee Member,

Anything happen should have proof and witness. If you do the thing is right, don't need to care about that. The people who talking or suspect about someone "making money ", he must show the eyewitness & proof to all the committe member to take a action. If he or she can't show out the witness or proof, please stop to continue talking about that. My personal comment, the people who say someone is " making money ", he or she should have their own personal plan.

I hope all the JMB committe member can continue work as team work & trust. Return the benefit to the resident and not for own planning.

thanks for all the encouragement & useful advices, well, bitter pills like this really hard to swallow, but i think the committee members who have been accused should be able to pull thru' & overcome it.

thanks again.
