Taking the "Am" out of "AmCham"
What do you call an American Chamber of Commerce abroad that is run by non-Americans, "has ceased to be an institution dedicated to promoting the 'American' way of doing business, and is instead now a local symbol of the most 'un-American' of bad business habits, including cronyism, cartelism, non-transparency and even a degree of media coercion"? The comparatively trivial yet compelling (to me!) story, which was apparently too hot for the local English-language newspapers to handle, can be found here.
