Putin shows oligarchs who's boss

A column on The Borneo Post's Business section on Monday, June 8, 2009 strucked me when I read through the words of Russian Prime Minister, Mr. Vladimir Putin...
"I think you have made thousands of people hostage to your ambitions, unprofessionalism and maybe simply greed," said Putin.
"This is unacceptable. Where is the social responsibility of business? Where is it? We talk about this non-stop at every meeting!" he added.
"Why did you all run here like cockroaches just before I was about to come? Why were there not people here before who were capable of taking a decision?"
If you can't agree among yourselves it will be done without you," he said.

What a word from a man, a head man of a country... Do we need to be like that as well? Not necessary, we must look into others situation, learnt from them and move forward. We not need to go through what they had gone through in order to learn, we just need to understand and move on... An excellent lesson from our Russian friends.
