And another thing, in response to "Foschini has at least two ex-KPMG partners on its Board of Directors – Anthony Thunstrom, Foschini’s CFO, only left KPMG in 2015, and the second, David Friedland, left in 2013. That these two Directors saw if fit for Foschini to cut ties with the auditing firm is quite telling."

With due respect Pop, I don't know what that tells.

These ex-partners were either equally guilty then, and had no right to serve on the board and by extension had no right to allow KPMG to be the service provider for all this time, or they (and the rest of the 3400 employees at KPMG) were in the clear, and there was nothing wrong with either having them serve on Fochini's board or to have KPMG be their service provider for all this time.

But please, we cannot have it both ways.
