"UN plan to save world"

The headline "UN plan to save world" caught my eye - yeah, caught my eye as if with a harpoon.
After decades of piecemeal reform that had tackled symptoms rather than causes, Mr Annan said, a radical overhaul was needed because the UN's current rules and regulations "make it very hard for the organisation to conduct its work efficiently or effectively".
Respectfully, Mr. Annan: good try getting on the solution side of the issues plaguing the U.N. I have to wonder if the traditional hatchet job that occurs when a large corporate entity is restructured is going to best play out with the U.N. situation. Might it not be more advantageous to leave in place a crippled and publicly humiliated Annan, who knows that (powerful) people are watching - rather than install a fresh face, devoid of such controls?

My (proverbial) hat off to the Hearld Sun for such a wonderfully subversive sarcastic headline!
