The foundation has failed to run an operation in accordance with the |
18 |
laws and legislation of a foundation when it comes to, in particular, |
19 |
accounting matters of a number of years, which is a disgrace. The |
20 |
primary responsibility of the board of directors and its officers is to |
21 |
ensure that the foundation comply with applicable laws and file the |
22 |
necessary paperwork for its operation for things including tax matters. |
