Hi Grant, please accept my apologies for the hate you got from the board. Unfortunately the old guard fail to look past the fact you're a TC. They don't/didn't evaluate each centre on their own merit and would believe the negative without second thought for factors such as disgruntled employees or people who expect western style home comforts without exception despite living in an Asian country, or even local competitors hoping to get an advantage.

It's good that you have recognised there were problems in the past and that you are working to correct them and move forward. If only more schools were so open about past issues, rather than be worried about losing face, more progress could be made to weed out the truly bad places and see the positives of the good places.
