HK tycoon Joseph Lau Luen Hung guilty in Macau graft trialHall of Shame
RTHK, 14-Mar-2014
He is thereby inducted into our Hall of Shame. The case reminds us of the late Lim Por Yen, founder of Lai Sun group, who was convicted in Taiwan for corruption over a land transaction. As with Macau, there was and is no extradition treaty between HK and Taiwan. China is actually 1 country, 4 legal systems. After paying NT$40m in bail and being allowed to leave pending appeal, he never returned to Taiwan.

Chinese Estates (0127): Joseph Lau Luen-hung charged in Macau with bribery and money-laundering

Comment: Chinese Estates still does not disclose who owned the BVI vendors of Moon Ocean, and does not disclose whom Moon Ocean acquired the land from. It does not repeat the 2005 claim that the BVI Lender of a $750m facility to Moon Ocean was an Independent Third Party. In a Macau court, Steven Lo Kit Sing has said that he borrowed the money from Joseph Lau.
Tycoon denies bribery claim
HK Standard, 18-Apr-2012
The article says that a company owned by Joseph Lau and Steven Lo Kit Sing won the tender for the sites - but if this is true, then who sold Moon Ocean Ltd (which acquired the land in 5 agreements in Oct-2005) to Chinese Estates? The vendors were BVI companies who were said by Chinese Estates to be independent. We call on the ICAC and SFC to investigate who owned the vendors and how Moon Ocean bought the land.
