 T   Issues in the conflict HDC vs. HLH/FoH:

The unilateral physical take-over of Mulbadaw Farm and Central Maintenance and Service Centre by order from the  Foundation Friends of Haydom in Norway; without producing any court injunction or any legal document authorizing such a take-over.

The conduct of the chairman of the Board of Directors of Haydom Development Company Ltd; his lack of loyalty to lawful decisions made by the Board in 2006 and his unauthorized and secret dealings with Joseph Tadayo leading up to the unilateral physical take-over mentioned above.

The deceit by FoH in fulfilling their own board decision of October 2005 in financing HDC Ltd

The lack of registration of the entity running Mulbadaw Farm and Central Maintenance and Service Centre after 12th August 2006; how can a foreign foundation own and run businesses in Tanzania without being registered in Tanzania?

The suspicion of corruption aimed at avoiding the case to be considered by the court.

Lack of transparency

Posted 07.05.2013

New master thesis calls for transparency

Hlin Irene Sagen Grung has written a Master's  Thesis (The University of Agder) in Norway from 2011 titled "Haydom Lutheran Hospital: A Sustainable Health-Providing Organization or a ‘White Elephant’?" In her thesis she writes on page 73 and 74 under the heading ”5.10.13 HLH as a Development Agent”:

The last farm to be bought was the Mulbadaw farm. However, due to conflict between HLH, the local populations and the former administrative-team at Mulbadaw, I was discouraged from including any discussion of the farm into this thesis (Interview A9).Moreover, during the pre-visit to HLH, it became apparent that the Medical Director did not know that he was part of the board at Mulbadaw. To me the lack of transparency, willingness to discuss the farm and lack of knowledge about responsibilities towards the farm, questions the actual processes behind the conflict and how it is handled by the management at HLH (see Chapter 8). It is also my belief that not being proactive towards the conflict and going into dialogue with the local population could threaten the future sustainability of HLH.”

On page 73 and 74under the heading“8.3 Skepticism by the Administration” Grung writes:

”There was also unwillingness amongst administration, staff and volunteers to discuss parts of my initial thesis, notably the Mulbadaw Farm. The farm therefore had to be partly excluded from my thesis. However, I still firmly believe that the farm is of great importance when analyzing the future sustainability of HLH and HLH’s relationship with the local community. Especially, with the ongoing conflict of who is in charge and who is the owner of the farm. My point of view is that this conflict reduces the trustworthiness of HLH and therefore its future sustainability.”

As you can read it's not only HDC that's surprised by the lack of transparency concerning the Mulbadaw farm. Read the whole thesis here.
