Breaking: Sven-Goran Eriksson is the new head coach for pinoyland football team

The Philippines have appointed former England, Mexico and Manchester City boss Sven-Goran Eriksson as head coach of the national team ahead of the AFF Suzuki Cup in November and January's Asian Cup.

Eriksson has been appointed on a six-month deal that includes an option to extend, according to reports in the region and will oversee his first game on Nov. 13 against Singapore.

The 70-year-old will be assisted by Scott Cooper who has been in charge of the team since former England captain Terry Butcher resigned in August after less than two months in Manila.

"One of the most legendary coaches of all time, coach Sven-Goran Eriksson will be coaching the Azkals for the Suzuki Cup and the Asian Cup," Philippines team manager Dan Palami said on Saturday during an AFF Suzuki Cup trophy tour.

"I'm sure he will be a great addition to the team and I'm sure the players will learn a lot from him," Palami added. "He will be working together with our coach, Scott Cooper. That's one of the moves that we have made to allow us to do better in this edition of the Suzuki Cup."

The Philippines, ranked 116th in the world by FIFA, have yet to win the Suzuki Cup, Southeast Asia's biennial tournament that features 10 teams from the region. The Azkals, as the team are known, have been grouped with Singapore, Indonesia, Timor Leste and Thailand.

The next challenge for Eriksson, who was recently linked with Iraq and Cameroon, is a first-ever appearance in the Asian Cup which takes place in the United Arab Emirates. The Philippines will take on China, South Korea and Kyrgyzstan.

The move to the Philippines will not be the first time that Eriksson, who led Lazio to the Serie A title in 2000, has worked in Asia.

After leaving the England job in 2006 to work with Manchester City, Mexico, Ivory Coast and Leicester, Eriksson headed to China in 2013. There he coached Guangzhou R&F, Shanghai SIPG and, most recently, Shenzhen FC, leaving the second-tier club in June 2017.

Sakae sugar trade

HOW Sakae Holdings lost US$4.3 million (S$5.93 million) selling sugar to a disappearing customer remains a mystery, with the boss of the conveyor-belt sushi brand giving little away when pressed by shareholders at Sakae's annual general meeting (AGM) on Monday.

About 30 people attended the AGM held at the Sakae Building, where the board was asked who initiated the sugar deal, who the delinquent customer was, and why Sakae had ventured into sugar trading in the first place.

Executive chairman Douglas Foo was tight-lipped under questioning. The case is being investigated by the police, he noted.

"When there is an investigation going on, I don't think we are at liberty to discuss it," he said.

Besides, all the facts have been published in Sakae's announcements in September, Mr Foo added.

This did not satisfy some shareholders who asked why Sakae's independent directors, who formed its audit committee, had not raised the alarm sooner.

The sugar sale had been invoiced in December last year and remained unpaid for months before Deloitte, Sakae's auditor, flagged the issue to the board on Aug 27.

Mr Foo replied: "Do you want to do the corporate governance part, or do you want to recover it (the money)? We were working very hard to recover it. We were on top of it, but we wanted to recover it. Because once you recover it, it is not an issue right? So as far as we were concerned, the recovery was more important."

Lead independent director Chan Wing Leong added: "The auditors discovered it (the sugar problem) around the time they were working to finish up the final results, and the audit committee was informed... Auditors must do their job, we are not there to check the accounts.

"It's very clear that the independent directors were made privy to this fact (of the unpaid sugar) only in August."

Mr Chan was the only independent director who attended the AGM. Lim Chee Yong has retired effective Monday, while Nandakumar Ponniya Servai has resigned to focus on professional and personal commitments after taking on a regional role at work. Both were absent at Monday's meeting as they were overseas.

Despite the tough questions, the hour-long AGM was civil, although one shareholder urged Mr Foo to focus on his core food business, voicing concerns that management had gotten "distracted" over the years.

Mr Foo said: "I beg your pardon, if you have mistaken us for a food company. We have never gone out to say we're building a food company. We have always said we are building a global brand."

Sakae has always been on a "brand-building journey", he said: "So you realise that even when we do fintech, it's Sakae Fintech. Even when we do corporate advisory, it's Sakae Corporate Advisory. We go to blockchain, it's Sakae Blockchain. We do cybersecurity, it's Sakae Cybersecurity. It's all riding on the Sakae brand."

He added: "We are trying to build a McDonald's or a Starbucks for sushi. So we are not a F&B company."

Asked by The Business Times after the session how the sugar business was meant to help Sakae build its brand, chief executive Lilian Foo, Mr Foo's younger sister, said she would not be able to say more than what had been disclosed during the AGM.

The shareholder who had urged Mr Foo to return his focus to the food business called the AGM "disappointing". Sakae had only just emerged from a six-year-long legal battle over a property investment that turned sour.

While the issues raised remained as cloudy as a cup of Japanese sencha, all resolutions were passed at the AGM. Mr Foo has a direct and deemed interest in 65.91 per cent of Sakae Holdings. Sakae shares last changed hands at S$0.18 on Oct 15.

For the first time, Singapore made it to the list of top 10 most generous countries in the world, according to the British charity, Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), which released its report on Tuesday (Oct 30).

It is ranked seventh in the foundation's World Giving Index 2018.





Topping the list is Indonesia, followed by Australia in second place and New Zealand in third place. The United States, Ireland and Britain took fourth, fifth and sixth place respectively.

Indonesia was the runner-up in the 2017 Index, but climbed to the top in this year's ranking after the previous champion, Myanmar, fell to the ninth place this year.

FAILED BUSINESS MODEL!!! Don't Be Killed By The Market First!

Don't ask me names or details. But chanced upon this company and the boss who aimed to be the best and biggest in sg and In the industry. Want to kill off all other smaller players and monopolise the entire market.

Talked big and pissed off alot of many in the industry..

Then I got this chance to visit their office and premise. Indeed very big. Got big warehouse and big products and a fleet of warehouse men, lorries etc. And later I found out they got 30 to 40 over staffs in their company..later I think n think.. And come to a conclusion. This company will zhup lup within 1 to 2 years.. Cos I cannot see how local Market which is so limited and small can sustain their monthly overhead of 150k to 200k..

True enough.. The owner ran road and owed alot of debts to others not paid and his company just winded up..

Lessons learnt.
Don't be too ambitious and talk big. Don't be too impatient and do too big too fast.

While you trying to be the best in the market has no wrong.. You trying to kill and dominate the market will lead to the market killing you first..

That was what happened to them.

Pure idealist business model and never weigh the pros and cons. Never look at the realistic things and just burge forward..
