Re: ren ci charity

What prize? When did they say there are lucky draw prizes on the call we
made to them.

Since, as you have said, those $30 donation per-call is not included in the
dollar number on the TV screen, then why waste money on the show on those $5
and $15 per-call-donation only?.

And what is the reson that the $30 dollar donation is not include in the
cumulative dolaar on the screen?

If they have ot exclude the aboe $30 dollar donation from the cumulative
number, then they should have it tabualted on the top right screen so that
public watching the screen can see that if the 3 milllion collection target
had been reached and exceeded (to whci hit was already 5 milllion dolar
donated) then the pulbi could then decide if they wish to donate any mor eor
not. If this off-line figurei s not included on the screen, it can be
confusing to the public and in asense it can be contrue as to "hide" the
true donated sum fro mthe public until it theshow was over the total tallied
up in the annoucment. It is not a good idea to "deceive" and to "confuse"
the publc donars. Let be transparent if they want people to donate and watch
the show program, and most of all the watching is also to appreciate the
effort of those artisits on the show. If nobody see the show, can you
imagine the artists will be dissapointed and the show is only for them and
the VIPs eyes only.



The 3 hour show would have had better effect if they asked a few rich
sponsors or millioninaires to sponsors or some sponsors to pay for the time
slot of putting up a show like - "star on ice", and other.
