Some of you might have heard the breaking news recently about IDA having hired an employee with a fake MBA. Combining Singaporeans' unhappiness over losing jobs to foreigners with our struggle with high tuition fees in education, it is no wonder the locals are unhappy with this matter.
Locals losing jobs to foreigners is bad enough, but losing jobs to foreigners who have faked their "superiority" to us?
I highly doubt that IDA's response was crafted by a PR professional, or if so, then that person must have been not that good at his/her job. A good PR response is supposed to help you mitigate the crisis, not escalate it further. But take a look at what happened:
1. IDA defended their hire by claiming they hired her based on her degree, which they stated was from a "reputable university"
Not very wise, because this happened next.
