Fark you SGN!!!

Day before yesterday, the prime minister of Malaysia, Datuk Najib Tun Razak has warned Malaysians against participating in Multi Level Marketing (MLM) businesses. He said though MLM is a legal business, the system itself is a flaw where it mirrors a pyramid structure, means that downline, in mass are providing for the upline, small in number, but they earn a lot. Apparently, the are hundreds of MLM businesses operating in Malaysia currently.

I'll give you my advice based on my real experience in SGN. When I first joined SGN, I was being told to pay only RM2500 and when I brought in 5 members, I will not only be able to get back my cost, when these 5 members expand, my income will expand as well. When they showed me the marketing plan, it was so perfect that I was very convinced that I can really make money out of this so called business. However, pls note that during the initial briefing, they did not tell you that if your position is not higher than your downline, no matter how your downline expand, you won't get any income. The catch here is that unless you are at the Master posistion or above, you must have a higher position than your downline. I wasn't aware of this flaw when I joined. Few weeks after joining, they briefed me on another marketing plan, a more detailed marketing plan. On this marketing plan, they persuade you to invest to become a Master. Well in order to become a Master, you must invest RM34k. When I told them that I do not have so much money, then they tried to talk me into taking a bank loan or credit card loan. The CM said that if I did not invest, they will not help me in my business and thus my RM2500 registration fees being paid earlier will be as good as gone. In the end, I invest as a Principal, paid up RM 15k. And I know that now, after deviated from DCHL selling Lamp Berger, they now sell the so called water filter D'Oceanus registered under Sweblink Global Network. And the last when I checked online, Sweblink Global Network is actually another MLM company with a different set of marketing plan. I wonder why don't they directly registered under Steady Global Network?

Okay, this is not the purpose of this post, so I shall not said more on the invest. My actual purpose of this post is to disclose on how MLM will really affect your life.

Since joining this SGN, we have to go to office every Monday and Wednesday and Friday. Usually, the event will start at around 7pm and will last till 11pm, depending if you are bringing new prospect or not. What do we do? There will be numerous seminars, talks and briefings going on everyday. When there is no events, we will sit together for sharing sessions. These sharing sessions are for us to talk about our experiences in joining this business to influence new prospect or new joinee. Usually, they will only shared bout good things and nothing negative. Haha, I used to brag with the newcomers of how much I have earned from SGN. In Fact, everyone brag about how much they actually earned. Well, I can tell you, it's all bullshit. The Marquis (Now call CM) will claims that they earned a nice RM15k every month. Come on, one of the marquis that I know was actually only driving a Proton Saga and living in a rented apartment!! When I questioned him bout that, he often said that he don't want to waste money buying a good car or he is still looking for a nice drive. Bullshit!!!

When I first asked my friends to join this MLM scam, I felt so bad of not highlighting to them that if they pay only the RM2500, they will NEVER success in this business. To success, they will need to invest at least RM15k or RM34k. Well, many will claims that in the early stage of their business, they can even start to earn RM 7 - 8k a month easily. Hello!!! That RM 7 - 8k a month is actually part of your RM34k that you have invested earlier. You are only divesting your liability to your downline, what so great about this?! Okay, my first few prospects did agreed to join in as partners and some of them did invest. But I really felt bad about what I did and I really conned them into joining. Then, as I moved on, it's getting harder and harder to persuade my prospect to join. After a few t-up with them, they started to avoid my calls. Damn, I am really losing out of friends. And these friends went around telling my other friends about my 'MLM' business. More and more friends avoid me. To be frank, this is the worst part of doing MLM, you really losing out of friends, and some of them are damn real good friends. And before bringing these prospects to office, we actually need to submit a form to the upline telling them all the things about the prospect, from their family to their financial abilities so that during the briefing process, they can try to psycho and talk to the prospect bout their financial problems. If this ain't cheating, then what is cheating? I mean, as good friend, telling off everything bout your friend to another person, is that integrity? I doubt so..

Even after I quit SGN, I don't dare to meet up with my friends that I brought up to office as prospects. So, think before you join, or you will sure regret it...

P/s: do you know why the Malaysian government did not allowed DCHL to renew it license? There is a lot of people that take a bank loan and unable to repay back the loan, thus the government has no choice but to do an investigation. According to Duke Chia (now called Ambassador) himself, there are numerous cases of new joinee in Macau that commit suicide as they are unable to pay back the loan that they took to invest into the business. Maybe this is one reason why SGN does not dare to register under it's own name
