Flynn named chairman KPMG International
Sir:

I have known one thing in my life. That is if the name of the hotel gets sucked up in any scandal, I am out of this. I will not visit this.
KMPG is on of the SECs target, how new man can walk in without any self respect.
We are not talking about the hotel. We are talking about professionalism.

Does he not feel that this is not the right time to take up the post till SEC has cleared KMPG?

May be I am too naive, but I have my own ego and I stick to this.


I thank you
