His feudalistic demeanor finds

It has only recently become clear that he also failed completely in another key area. At the end of the Walpen era, the SRG is facing a looming deficit of several hundred million.
This negative development was not corrected because Walpen never looked into the operational processes in detail. As a result, the apparatus and costs were inflated in unison. Today, the SRG, subsidized with 1.1 billion in license fees, is a "restructuring case", as the Tages-Anzeiger rightly wrote. 4. Armin Walpen was primarily concerned with his own well-being.
He had his salary increased uae rcs data generously year after year, as was his expense account. His permanently present luxury limousine with chauffeur became the real symbol of the Walpen regime. its clearest expression in Chur. There, in the new radio and television centre, which cost 26 million Swiss francs and was completely oversized, there is a prestigious auditorium which his local vassals have christened “Sala Walpen”.
And what did the boss of all bosses do? Did he protest against this unsavoury kowtow, which would be hard to beat in terms of embarrassment? No, he was genuinely delighted by this completely un-Swiss homage. And so, of all of Armin Walpen’s deeds and misdeeds, this one testimony will probably survive the longest – that is, unless someone comes along and at least sticks the first letter of his name over it. Because then the merciful veil of oblivion could finally be lowered over a long, unsuccessful chapter of the SRG.
