UN Colombia Mission Hiring Scandals From Photographer to Sleeping Way Up No Answers

UN GATE, Nov 7 – How corrupt is today's UN under Antonio Guterres? Today's follow up is on his mission in Colombia, about which his spokespeople Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming refuse all Press questions. Inner City Press has asked them, and others, about the newest sex abuse case against the UN there. Now this, from a UN whistleblower sent to Inner City Press:

Dear Matthew, Yesterday I read an article on corruption in the UNVMC. I am trying to keep a low profile out of fear for my contract but must speak now and confirm that corruption has reached an unimaginable level in this mission.

 The selection of Yang Wang as Chief of Mission Support has still bewildered everybody although rumors about the possibility were simmering in the mission. It is true that he is good in photography and also in golf, in devising schemes to bring his friends to the UNVMC, in telling his superiors on the people he does not favor and ingratiating himself to the point of absurdity with senior leadership. He tries to find a flaw with those who he or his supervisor does not like making a complete fool of himself for not knowing what he is doing. He has zero professional competence and is a laughingstock of the mission for stupid comments that he makes. There is even a list of what he said or wrote circulating in the mission!

He was kicked out from UNSOS when his benefactor for him he was spying on other staff left. He then called Eric Ball who brought him to Colombia. The narcissistic SRSG would love to have someone who is obedient and not so bright to say the least under his command. He gets rid of strong women like the previous DSRSG and surrounds himself with people without their own opinion but docile and “loyal.” 

He is invincible and, no matter what he does, someone protects him and even the OIOS disgracefully swept his affair with a local staff member under the carpet. Mar Brusola, once an untidy looking UNV in Haiti, a corrupt CHRO brought in by Erich Ball and Yang Wang has risen quickly in her career through her romantic relationship with the current CDU Chief in the mission. She is infamous for her manipulative and corrupt practices in the UNVMC and other missions.

Thank you, Matthew, for publishing this if you decide so

  Of course. Keep the info coming.
