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

Damn it Lamp Berger, Damn it SGN, Damn it SYN
Damn it lamp berger. Because of this damn lamp berger, I have been conned near up to RM15k, all hard earned money! And not to mentioned all those friends that I have lost. pull myself out after joining just for a couple of months, can't stay any longer, cheating other people of their money, though in the process, 2 of my friends got conned... really felt sorry to them....
Let me just share this with all of you so that you can take it as a lesson in life
A year ago, one of my friend, Tony invited me to an outing somewhere at Johor. Without suspecting, I just joined. He said some of his friends/colleagues will be going. When we arrive the meet up points, there are already some of them there, Chinese and Indians. At start, the number are just relatively small, 7-8 of us. Then slowly, more and more people came until it reaches 40++. I was quite suprised but Tony said that some of them bring along their colleagus and friends. Then, we drive up to a resort at a nearby beach. We play and kinda enjoyed ourselves. Some of them are regulars there while some of them are newbies, just like me. When I asked them, most of them said that they are 'businessman' doing some networking business. I thought they were refering to Computer Networking, thus did not ask more on their profession and continue to mingle around with them. There, T introduced my to F,C and L (regulars in that group). According to T, these are the organisers of the outing. C was the one with the most friendly look, kept talking to us and chatting. We played at the beach, have BBQ dinner that night and even play cards until late of the night.
The next day, when I woke up, when we are having our breakfast, a lot of them are actually wearing the same orange T-shirt (with SGN logo on it and looks like the Holland Soccer team jessey). When I asked, C explained that they actually belong to the some sort of networking company. C told me that on the way back to Johor, they will stop a while at their company as they are having some sort of party there. Then I suspect that something was wrong and suspect that this is some sort of MLM company. They really planned everything so well that at the start, they told me not to drive my car as it will be difficult to coordinate. Thus, on the way back, I was like no choice but to follow them to their company for the whatever party which turn out to be a MLM talk.
Though suspicious, I was quite impress with the number of people attending and encouraged by the talk. The talk by one of their so called 'Duke C' was very persuading. Not to be mentioned of all the lamp berger there which add into my curiousity. I actually believed in their bullshits bout how you can make at least RM15k a month by only introducing 5 friends into the scam. Then I told them that one of my friends have actually warned me bout this Lamp Berger MLM business cheating people RM20k to RM30k. They, cleverly pushed all the blames to their counterpart, SYN, another Networking company for Lamp Berger in Malaysia and said that we only need to pay a registration fees of RM2500 only. And with this registration fees, they are actually giving you some lamp bergers and oil essences which they claimed to be more than Rm2500k. The thought of not much improvement in my career plays a lot in my decision to join this Lamp Berger scam. After joining for the first month, they told me that since I did not have any experience, I must attend their training classes first, which turn out to be mind washing talks. When I have joined them for a month, then I have to attend this talk call Y35 (turned out to be Why you must pay RM35k) given by the Duke C (the owner SGN). After all the shit talks, I really believed that by paying more to upgrade your membership, you'll get to earn more. They even encouraged you to make a bank loan and will accompany you to the bank in order to make sure that you didn't run away. I did not wanted to take up any loan from bank, thus ended up paying all my saving (up to RM15k if I am not wrong).
Now, after upgrading my membership, I was told to bring in new member immediately. Huh, so all those talk bout training is actually to coax u to upgrade ur membership. There is no training at all. Shit!
I was able to bring in 2 of my friends to office and after the 'T-up' session, they agreed to join. Reason given is not that they believe in this whatever money making scam, but they believed in me. It really disheartened me when they said that they joined because they believed in me. And I know that in coming one month, I will need to coax them to pay more and more. Really looked down on myself then.
I told my upline that I didn't felt like continuing this act, but on the next day, F and C immediately contacted me and asked me out for a cup of tea. They said that they have something to chat with me. End up being another brain washing session.
At this point, I started to feel of retreating. I don't really wanted to end up like them, brain washing my friends and make people disguise at the sight of me. But as I said, I have bring in 2 memberships, if I back off, then what will happened to them? The thought of this made me at the crossroad, thinking of cancelling my membership or not. In the meanwhile, I still continue to attend the 'brain washing' talk.
Somewhere nearby September last year, all members are requested to attend a meeting at our branch office. We have been told that RZ Corporation, the so call company for Malaysia's DCHL has been blacklisted by Malaysia government and will not be allowed to renew their license. At this point, all the Marquises happily pointed that it is not our company problem but rather that problems created by SYN. Our SGN is still very 'pure' and was dragged to this mess by SYN. Then they said that they intended to move out from DCHL group and will get a waterfilter as product for the new company. I was like 'WTF'. I thought that they used to champion their lamp berger. Now, easily they just did a switch and turn over to a new product.
I am really dissapointed with this MLM thing. Have already pull myself out and lost the RM15k that I have invested. Damn it.
