CHC Saga Revisit

I have been a CHC member since 1999. I have stop attending it since May 2010 and have not givena single cent to it. Till today I still can't believe how Kong Hee & Sun Ho has changed to.

It was well til 2005, everything and everyone is so gear towards loving God fervently. That is till the cultrual mandate comes in, when SUN HO went to Taiwan to have some concert and share here testimony to get people saved. It was good and my wife and I even volunteer to go to Taiwan and Medan to help out. It was exctiing seeing lives changed. What I don't like is, CGL from CHC are pressurusing their members to buy 3-4 albums to support SUN HO. Right down in my mind, I was thinking "I only need 1 CD to listen nia". Finally, we just bought one to listen. Nothing fantastic about the songs. Her second album was a non-event then. I remember we have afew concerts in church.

Here are some things I have experience first hand. Please note that all these all my personal view through research and first hand experience, it may not be 100% correct:

1. SUN HO contract with Tono Entertainment

I rememeber Kong Hee saying that a recording company has signed SUN HO to be in LA for 5 million. We simply accept anything he said . It was until recently that I knew that the company that signed SUN-Tono entertainment had already folded in 2003. How on earth can she sign a contract with them in 2005? Was it a lie from the very first day of the 2005's forway.

2. HC, Mark & co under chruch payroll?

SUN HO didnt go to USA alone. She has Henry Chee and his wife Xiuyan acting as Dayan nanny. Vivien was there too. Mark was there too and for what purpose I don't know. Important question is were they under church payroll? The answer is YES and I know this's the question alot of CHC members would like to ask but don't dare to.

3. SUN HO's real purpose in USA?

This is another question alot of CHC goers would like to know. For what I know is to prepare to penetrate China. But after 5 years, 5 singles there is no clue on how this relates to China. It was till my friend bring to my attention "China Wine' where she dress and actedworse than those circular artistes. Has she backslided?
What is all these about where KONG HEE practically have to fly to & fro  LA weekly to see his wife and son. All of us are fooled into believing that KONG HEE has indeed sacrificed alot for the church and his family.

O-school and Xtron existed just to support her adventure in USA.

Her lifestyle over there was luxurious. Her rental of apartment works out to be $28000 monthly. She got 2 cars there. Was she there for a purpose or just enjoy the new found high life? Her monthly expenses could work out something like this:

  • Rental : $28000
  • Child Education : $1000
  • CHC Staff : $30000
  • Car: $2000

On some occasion, she will appear to on some relief sight to help the victims (Haiti) for the church to know that she is doing good for the weak.

4. Xtron & its Financial Nonsense

It was till the newspaper bring out this company that was supposedly SUN HO's marketing company that I came across SUN HO. Before that, I have heard that KONG HEE had started a AV company outside to take care of the AV in church. I though it was brilliant since other people beside CHC can do business with this AV company. It was till last year that I knew this AV company to be Xtron. Why do I have to find out everything from the press and forums? There is simply NO TRANSPANRENCY.

It was shocking to know that this company had only ONE customer - CHC and the company had consistently raked up 5-8 millions loss annually from 2005 onwards. 2005 again? Was it a conincidence?
What did it do to rake up these losses? It is logical and normal practice for the company to wrap up after 2-3 years of 7 millions losses yearly. How Xtron get the money to lose? likely from CHC and AMAC (Eng Han's investment vehicle).

It was reported AMAC bought bonds (worth millions)  in 2007-2008 to help solve the financial problems. Why would a fund invest in a failing company or something that has no value and in deep shit financially? AMAC was probably funded by the BBGs. Besides, I remember there was some "Mutual Fund" written on the offering envelopes, it was understood this goes to some church mission. Probably this "Mutual Fund" is channelled to the AMAC too.

All these chains of events evolve around SUN HO.

5. SUN HO's popularity

Ever wonder how a 40 year old can have so many fans and on top of US charts. At least that is what is portrayed of her from KONG HEE. The fact is that few Americans heard of SUN HO. The charts proabably is not the main stream ones. Those DJ can be offered money to play artisite songs morre often. (I don't know if its true). I for once wont listen to her song let alone join her fan club. Her fan club llikely are all CHC members.

6. Suntec - $310million

This is really a spark that blows up the whole saga. KONG HEE says it was SUN HO who help CHC acquire a stake in suntec. Samuel Loh, a CHC member and private banker, ask for a breakdown of the figure from CHC. After no reply is given, he wrote to the COC for them to investigate the church.

It was annouced that we are co-cowners of suntec city by buying a sisgnificant stake in Harmony Fund which have 80% of the suntec city. It was not after much scutiny, that CHC release a media clarification on 7th March 2010:

"Our Church, through a special purpose investment holding company wholly owned by CHC, has acquired and holds an indirect minority stake in the holding company of Suntec Convention Centre."

Sigiificant stake become minority stakes? Something is not right.

The sum doesn't adds up too. Harmony Fund bought into Suntec in 2009 for around 250 million in 2009. A minority stake (max 49.9%) would only work out to 120 million.  Why are they quoting 310 million? When people ask about the details, they refuse to release the details because of NDA agreement with Harmony Fund. Why would such NDA exists? When major stakeholder changes interest, SGX would require the company to make the annoucement the next day.

CHC will be moving to Suntec from 19 March 2011 onwards but with 7500 capacity to cater for the new guideleines issued by the authority. All the members are so excited. Put it simple, CHC is only renting suntec after spending so much to rent a place. All these money is after 5 A&R which amass 100million. They will have no choice after putting JW building for collarate.

Sources said that CHC will pay 46million to a licensee to help find a place, in which 16million is already paid. This licensee is probably AMAC. I though it was SUN HO who help find the place. Why is there to pay a middleman every year for finding Suntec to rent? Simply as that, you want to rent the hall in Suntec, go up to Suntec, check availability, book and pay directly.

7. Simpleminded

I ask most of my friend in CHC, they don't even know what is Xtron? Oh boy are they ignorance or just simple-minded when the wrtings are all on the walls.

Are they going to continue finance 8 more A&R. The good thing is SUN HO adventure has ended.  Probably, the money the donated would be put to better use now.

8. KONG HEE financial

From 2005, he stop receiving pay from CHC. His income is from talks and 2 SKIN boutique shops (1 closed down at Marina square). His event company, International Harvest rakes up $410000 in losses. I have doubts about the SKIN shops revenue as 1 closed down. How can he pay SUN's expenses plus his tickets to/fro USA every week? It cost $2-4 k for round tickets to USA.

9. ATTENDANCE INFLATED

One unknown CHC staff revealed that the actually weekly attendance is around 14800. The attendance given by church is around 28000 which causes a hoo-ha. The parity is so big and I suspect it is intentional to make CHC seen as big. The annual tithes received is much less than NCC. It suggests that the figure should not be so big as reported. NCC has around 20k members.

There is something not right internally as strifes develop.

10. NEW CHRUCHES

Darren Tan left in Feb 2011 to start LifeUnted Church in Aljunied.
Tan Chee Kiang left to start City Care Church in JB. (David Yem is there with him).

Latest update is KC Gan has left  to join Chee Kiang. He is the man man behind CHC's previous album.

HD28 Hospitalised

My HD28 is pregnant so have to send to Dr Jarvis for a dehumifier session, Bridge gluing and some buffing. The Singapore humidily needs one to dry your acoutics guitars minimum once a month. It makes sense to buy a dehumifier. I have bought a 2nd hand unit for $250.
