About this blog

  • Thinking Ethics was a project launched in Geneva to foster the debate about ethics. A few friends, fed up with only reading about abuses in the media, decided to hold a forward-looking seminar on five subjects: ethics and performance, ethics and knowledge, ethics and consciousness, ethics and disobedience and ethics in real time. If moral has to do with right and wrong, then ethics is its application in society. We believe that people need to talk about the subject to determine the level of ethics they want. The book Thinking Ethics, a result of the seminar, is to start the discussion. This blog is a contribution to the conversation.

Yes, but...

So a Thai bank needs a new CEO. The board sets up a selection committee of 3 persons (good corporate governance). The selection committee picks a candidate that meets the criteria. Then the Chairman cancels the suggestion and dissolves the selection committee. Would this be just a facade of corporate governance - or maybe just a farce ? Anyway - true story late December at the Siam City Bank - read about it in the article from The Nation.
