SINGAPORE: A man has been sent to jail over more than S$611,000 in bribes given to a facilities management director at the Singapore Zoo logical Gardens in a jobs-for-cash conspiracy.
According to court documents, Toh’s late father – who had set up SYC – and younger brother Too Say Kiong, 58, had entered into a corrupt arrangement with Barry Chong Peng Wee, 57, some time before 2005, in which WRS would award jobs to SYC in exchange for cash.The prosecution said that Chong would then tell Too a specific price to bid at to ensure that a job would be awarded to SYC, in exchange for monetary commissions, which were reflected in the mark-ups.
The prosecution said that Chong would tabulate the “commissions” owed to him on a piece of paper before passing it to Too, who would then inform his brother of the amount needed. Court documents stated that this was done in exchange for her silence over the offences involving Chong. Too told Chin to “keep quiet and close one eye” and offered her a stack of $50 notes, which she understood to be a reward for her silence on the corrupt arrangement.
On Nov 27, the prosecution urged the court to sentence Toh Say Yong to up to two years and three months’ jail, stressing that he was motivated by greed and that the scheme was sophisticated.
