Appalling to read about Red Cross

It was appalling to read about kinds of news related with the Red Cross Society of China. All charity organizations are duty bound to maintain records of donors, which in the case of Red Society could be millions. In fact, it is their fundamental duty.

If the Red Cross Society of China does not know how to operate professionally, it can seek the help of some other prestigious international charity organizations.

Many charity organizations answer questions addressed to them either by donors or non-donors and issue transparent reports on their collections and expenses. If they cannot do so, they can lose public trust forever.
