To support or not to? Olympus corporation's Mark Radatt is in a World Cup dilemma
Marc Radatt, general manager, Olympus Corporation Asia Pacific, is at a loss over whom to support in the World Cup. Radatt, who is South African, has lived and worked in Australia. He's currently based in Singapore, where India comes under his jurisdiction — which means he's in a bit of a spot as a cricket supporter.

Radatt was good-natured about his World Cup dilemma when he was in Mumbai last week to launch the company's new mirrorless camera E-M5 Mark II. He opened his talk with the score of the India vs Bangladesh match, then predicted an India vs South Africa finals "...which will be a wonderful experience". When it came down to the crunch, Radatt said he would back South Africa. "As much as I love Australia, I was born in South Africa. So, I will maintain my allegiance. I hope I made the right decision," he said, smiling. Spoken too soon, but Radatt still has today's match to look forward to, where he can support The Kangaroos.
