thing". He is been in to sex scandal and he
is popular for violating traffic rules. He
has weired interests. Such an idot.
Unfortunately oracle is just popular. This
will not lost longer.

2:The world is definitely not about reinventing
the wheel... Even if u r being a follower to
market trends, its close to impossible that u
become a market leader.
Hats Off to his strategies and vision, which made him leaving all the milestones behind and redefine the rules of the game.
Tell me one visionary, who can beat him in this corporate world. Nevertheless, its a known fact, if the chairperson is earning so much, imagine the kind of benefits getting passed on to the Oracalites....

and he is heading towards it...
Being an oracleite people might criticise him, but he has made a tremendous mark in this IT industry... think this way, given a chance to be in his shoes, could u have done the same ever? if ur answer is No, then that itself proves his worth...
Cheers..

7: Remuneration packages of board members had
been highlighted as one of the causes for
boards or audit committees failing to perform
their CG functions properly leading to
collapse of many reputed firms and global
economic crisis recently. But Oracle chief is
getting this high pay for performing well.
This is clearly execeptional from the usual
trend. Full marks to Larry and his excellent
team. I hope the employees of the firm also
got similar hikes, as it is their teamwork
which made his achievment possible.
