Given that computers are part of “luxury items” still barred to be shipped to North Korea, State Department’s search for someone willing to give money to a dictator (still on the list of terrorist sponsor states), was narrowing down every day. To the point that the search engine of the Organizations who Sponsor Terrorism, came with only one potential candidate:
Organization Name: United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)
Contact name: Kemal Dervis (Turkish)
Office to Charge: UNDP DPR Korea (PRK10)
Purchase Order: 0000000869 / 870
Supplier: International Master Trade Co.
The problem is that UNDP was & is under investigation for acting in the past 15 years as Kim’s ATM machine. But hey, if the President of the United States sends a Christmas Letter to Kim Jong Il, and Khalilzad is told to look the other way, who else out there would dare to go after UNDP?
Computers are a very important element, because Kim Jong Il wants to wrap-up the Christmas presents for his Politic-Bureau and other Military Elite.
So ... who can foot the bill for Kim’s presents to his followers ? Kemal Dervis will ! UNDP Will !
Despite its Executive Board’s decision not to re-open office and operations in North Korea until investigation is over, UNDP’s Kemal Dervis, eager to please, started a clandestine operation in close contact with the North Koreans and Ban Ki Moon's office, and purchased the only in Dec 2007 - 100 computers (desktops and laptops) and other gadgets
Disturbing is the fact that UNDP's Procurement Rules says that: - "every Procurement which goes beyond 30,000 limit should be sent for approval to Headquarters or Regional CPO" (Bryan Cook - Chief Procurement Officer – Bangkok). But UNDP in this case needed no approval from no body - despite the Purchase Orders value beyond 30,000.
One wonders how come Krishan Batra the Head of ACP in New York would allow something like this to pass? How come Bryan Cook the Regional Chief Procurement Officer in Bangkok would let this pass?
How can Kemal Dervis and Ad Melkert and Ban Ki Moon tell the world that UNDP operations are closed in North Korea - when in 2007 alone UNDP spent 1.4 million dollars in North Korea to run a clandestine operation? How can UNDP close books and projects, give assets back to North Koreans, and we still have more expenditures ? Who is being paid under this 1.4 Million and for what?
UNDP staff can no longer understand how our leaders can continue to leave in total status of denial.
- How can UNDP continue to operate as if nothing is happening?
- Does Kemal Dervis thinks that all staff are stupid and don't understand him and his Deputy?
- Does Dervis know that at least 4000 staffers around the globe had and still have access to ATLAS and other databases and we can see ourselves the data?
Do our leaders think that:
- taking ACP off-line and not-allowing us and public to know about our past procurements;
- telling Fridakis & Friends to spy on UNDP staff worldwide by setting NSA/KGB like structures;
- telling Fridakis & Friends to destroy all past evidence in headquarters servers;
- destroying proof on hundreds of illegal and nonexistent SSAs hired in the past two years;
would all these go unnoticed? Oh no it will not.
But we will not say more for the moment – let’s wait and see the lies that Kemal Dervis would tell to UNDP's Spokesperson David Morrison so the poor guy can tell it to the media. David Morrison don't become the parrot of Kemal Dervis - let him go to the media himself and tell the truth.
We thank the staff cooperating with UNDP Watch - we know you all are running against major risks of being retaliated against. But the only way to held our management accountable is to make public all their miss-managements and corruptions.
UNDP Watch will continue to bring to light all the corruption of our managers wherever they are.
