Folks, you get the government you vote for.

Isn't it time to make different choices?

.....yet another brilliant article by Robyn Louw.....really gets to the crux of the problem.....the top heavy system is unsustainable and these so called "execs" are raping racing.....they do very little than a few MC performances at big events......and go about back slapping each other and besides the big basic salaries.....are additionally showered with bonus and perks while racing continues on its downward slide.....they now are truly exposed....time for change.... :huh:

Who decides on the annual increment and bonuses for the Executive Directors?
Can't the shareholders object to the huge salaries and bonuses the Executive Directors receive?
Who are the Executive Directors answerable to?

......typical smoke and mirror bull sh!t fed to share holders and public.....an example of a performance bonus paid to Duppie.....was his instrumental dealings in increasing PHUM gaming market share by the acquisition of Supabets.....slap him on the back and give him a bells..... :whistle:....the performance goals are set very low..... but the rewards in achieving them are totally out of whack.... :oops:

Phumulela have replied on tabonline site...not a point for point rebuttal...seems like something put together to get their view out...much quicker response than one gets for numerous other complaints against the operators...

I have just finished reading the tab article "Phumelela replies to slanderous allegations".

The first word that springs to mind is "bully". And it's not the reporter that Phumelela directs its article. Rather Phumelela comes across as a corporate bully.

Clearly the reporter hit a nerve. Good on her. Horse racing needs people like her.

The joke is on Phumelela. The headline to the article says Phumelela responds. Not one director of Phumelela or its management is quoted. Instead one of the most controversial and highest earning persons in horse racing is quoted.

No matter how one reads the Phumelela renumeration figures for its top brass, they are over paid. While horse racing suffers, they are living vida loca.

Well done Robyn Louw. You have hit a nerve.

Do not be intimidated by this corporate bully. It's directors and management are not prepared to man up but are prepared to hide behind the money of Phumelela.

......what a load of figure fudging by the writer of the operator\s article.....so what if bonus's are paid over extended periods =....they are still highly out of whack....and geared to hyper inflated share price that was boosted by major propping and padding by the very execs receiving share options as bonus....what with the share price on the slide....are they going to have to pay their big basic salaries back in..... to save the bonus they keep re-investing.....
