One Response to “Lamy to join Thomson Reuters board”

  1. Sugiarto Setiabudi Says:

    Lamy has made big mistake to join Thomson Reuters FounderShare Company.
    Pehr Gyllenhammar should not invited high profile person to join in order to deter tarnish reputation.
    In fact, Reuters Founder Share Company has failed to discharge its safe guard duty to the Reuters constitution Trust Principles.
    Reuters trust principles is no more deceptive devices. currently along with
    culture of ehical failure at Reuters in doing business.
    It is funny, the failed trustee to build new entity namely Thomson Reuters Founder Share Company.
    The truth,Reuters no more than “sophisticated organized criminal agency”
