I heard a rumor that Orient Thai has lost their UN contract. Can anyone confirm?

UN procurement office assigns hunderds of contracts every year to approved vendors such as Orient Thai. So to lose a contract would be to lose a bid to a competitor, also an approved vendor. However losing vendor status would render Orient Thai incabable to bid for future UN contracts, if thats what you meant?
Orient Thai losing it's UN vendor status would not surprise me. I have not heard anything just recently. Will check.
Just checked. As of 5th of June 2008 Orient Thai was still an approved Vendor.

You're looking at the vendor list on-line for UN procurement? I saw that too.
(Sigh.) Maybe it was just a vicious rumor.
