  We summarize some features of the vector meson dominance model which was
recently proposed for studying radiative decays involving the scalar mesons.
Using the experimental values of $\Gamma(a_0 \to \gamma\gamma)$, $\Gamma(f_0
\to \gamma\gamma)$ and $\Gamma(\phi \to a_0 \gamma)$ as inputs, we show that
the model predicts a large hierarchy between $\Gamma(a_0 \to \omega \gamma)$
and $\Gamma(a_0 \to \rho \gamma)$ as well as between $\Gamma(f_0 \to \omega
\gamma)$ and $\Gamma(f_0 \to \rho \gamma)$.
