Corporate governance is almost a term of oxymoron..can searching for profit be able to contain the behaviors of the few greeds? or could profit searching be able to interact with the change of corporate executives since whether it is public or private, a company is still governed by a few executives which constantly cannot be controlled by BOD...Corporate governance is very difficult to reach because people change and often there are change of people's role within the company even the company's mission is originally to set out for the goodness...but very difficult to do..

Too many scattered thoughts, some not directly related to the topic. Repetitive in messages and examples
