Lame Lame Lame.
was going through today's business times and chanced upon a report where a few book chain in our neighbouring country somewhere up, boycott to sell Harry Potter book to any walk in customers. its not1 or 2 standalone shops, but actually book chains, (not those kucang kurak ones but those reputable ones like MPH, Popular and Times). the 3 chains more than 100 book stores nationwalk did this to protest at wat they said were unfair discounts offered by supermarket retailers in Malaysia.
How lame can you be to boycott your customers and not let them get their books because u cant fight for market share and withstand competition?
Obviously, they had no understanding of marketing, or maybe they knew too much of it that they decided this is the best way to get into the spotlight once again.
Sometimes its not how big the company is reputed to be, but actually how the management was to run the company.
somehow, nothing spectacular could ever come out from our neighbours except for the Iskandar Development which somehow seems overhyped and over rated. i just feel its just inches away from a tipping point where the bubbles will burst. as the story always goes, its nice and sweet until some happens, and i believe theres definalty something cooking up there.
