有國際報告指出,全球過半的私營企業,已有採納企業社會責任政策。全世界最負責的國家,原來不在歐洲,亦不是美國,而是神州大陸千千萬萬的國企。
為因應國策,以阿爺馬首是瞻的國企,自然是社會責任的先頭部隊。即使毒奶粉、毒酒、毒大米、毒豆奶、毒餃子不斷流出,祖國生產毒物的技術揚威中外,但至少,中國還是世界上比例上數量上最多企業採納社會責任政策的地方,處於領先全球的位置。
相反,香港只得37%的企業,表明採用企業社會責任政策,在調查中排尾六,明顯地落後祖國。相信不久,特區政府將率先跑出來,高呼要立即大幅提升比例,晉身世界領先的社責城市。
舉個例,本月十四日,報稱警方搗破一個由綜援人士經營的淫窟。一名靠綜援金過活男子,利用社署的租金津貼,在元朗租用唐樓,間成套房,日租予性工作者,再向嫖客徵收入場費、販賣安全套賺錢。
到底這是經濟不景氣,連經營淫窟的人,亦要領取綜緩,還是官僚濫發綜援,濫批津貼,以致催生了這樣一個由公帑支付的「賣淫王國」呢?淫窟用的既是公帑,它跟特首鼓吹的社會企業,又有什麼分別呢?是賺錢能力較強嗎?
另外,同樣是元朗,加上大埔,連接幾日發生的鳳樓兇殺案,令性工作者聞風破膽。昨天,當英勇偵破淫照案的特警,尚未捉到真兇之際,提供性服務資訊的網站Sex141,為保障性工作者生命安危,已率先「關站」,一盡企業的社會責任,他們果斷的決定,搏得成千上萬網民的掌聲。
事實上,「責」這個中文字很特別,它既解作責罰,亦解責任。政府常說的「問責」,就是責罰的意思。可是特區官僚中文水平特別低,理解成責任,於是每次出事,只管內部追問責任誰屬,卻永遠不見有人受罰。我們的特區官僚,連一個Sex141也不如。

位高權者,既得利益越多,關係越千絲萬縷;又有誰會受罰呢…

思哲兄收風真係快!
想不到”一世一網站” 都會盡其社會責任, 其老闆陳巴打係本地大學畢業生, 還是有點社會承擔的, 值得致敬!

唔知港台/中大 EMBA 合辦 “與 CEO 對話” 會唔會請一世一創辦人分享創業心得?

Good afternoon/ evening,
Reading the above article, I suppose the 141 website was temporarily closed because she wants to avoid unwanted troubles, not out of an intention to fulfill any “social responsibility”. The owner is not that noble.
At the same time, it is really an iron fact that many Hong Kong and China companies have zero idea of social responsibility. When a person hears someone stupid says, “Being in business is to be wicked”, in their language, one can estimate the social class and intellectual level of those business men. Nevertheless, their aim is money, and nothing more. That is what they crave for most, although they may not lack it.
Some people attribute these kinds of behaviour to “the fact that China was poor and many people cannot even fulfill their basic needs, therefore they have no idea of social responsibility or conscience. That is not their fault.”
That is really stupid.
By the same reasoning, robbers are not at fault, because they were poor, and should behave in this way.
Anyway, I like how many people say, “Those business men are only self-proclaimed business men.” Nevertheless, in a free society like Hong Kong, to register for business is as easy as buying a computer.
Wonder if this reaches you, and if you agree.
Please have a nice time.
