What a bunch of ratbags
Find it difficult to believe the lies and threats made by these GC (and ex GC) members against HKAOA staff members. These are totally unacceptable and show the pitiful moral standards these individuals have. Can these people be sued for these threats and abuse?

Sounds to me it's the beginning of the end. The cancer is entrenched and will only spread with devastating consequences, let alone the dissolution of what the members are actually paying for.

Yes they can sue. Clown show precedent was set when that group of GC members sued an AOA member a few years ago.
Only heard one side of the story and there were 6-7 GC members that went to the office. Must be something fishy going on.
I’m sure the IT worker was absolutely trembling with fear for their life too!!

6-7 went to the office but were acting on the majority decision of the GC as I understand it.
There are games being played that I’m sure only a few know. $60m of assets and a 63 year old
man wants to see out his career like this? Strange.
I’m all for wrapping this circus up and sharing the 40k per person amongst the members for Christmas.

Have a watch of the YouTube video the AOA put out. The IT guy isn’t being threatened or kidnapped like they are trying to make out. Sounds like he doesn’t quite understand he’s an employee getting paid from our money.
So now our subs money will be put towards some bull**** court case over this.

Seems clear he was not being allowed to leave the office and was trying to do his job as he had been told to. Also odd that after a recent election for president by the membership that some losers wanted to carry out a coup. Just because CX behaves like that to you is not an invitation to do it to others.

Ah, that old chestnut again.
STW, I can GUARANTEE you that ARAPA would have been in the exact same state that it is in now.
You never DID take the trouble to read the exact wording of that particular proposal did you?
But by all means keep trusting the word of your overlords you cotton plucker. Despite all the evidence to the contrary that you can’t.
Once you have an opinion you never let go.
Nobody will convince you that you might have been wrong!

Why do they work so hard to rule over dysfunction? For the only time in their lives they have a feeling of power and relevancy. Without it they are nothing.

There is a transcript, and link to the video, on the HKAOA website.
I am long since retired, but can still access the information, so whether you are retired or current member, you should be able to access.

Seriously, whomever supports the current clown as the chairman should have their intelligence checked. Undermining the general membership to benefit the few by asking for an extension of transition agreement instead of asking for an improvement for COS18 overall was a selfish and idiotic move. Can't believe I didnt quit sooner.

a company in the 1980,s I dreamed of working for ( and failed the interview) is now a train wreck. What exactly does the AOA do?

A disgrace to what once was. Divide and conquer has prevailed, and despite the current presidents best intention and attempts to salvage what's left, it's completely beyond repair.
Just get out and watch it burn.

So it makes it ok to disregard union rules and collude with the chairman? The IT staff was not following union rules, ofcourse he need to be shown the door. If you call that intimidation then you really are clueless…🤦🏻♂️

He’s Not a union member but an employee following his contract. As for the president he was elected by a majority of members so doing a Trump and denying the election results is really not acceptable in a democratic organisation. I notice you don’t have much to say about blowing 1.2million dollars of member’s money.
