Last week, Singapore’s Transport Minister, S. Iswaran, and a hotel tycoon, Ong Beng Seng, were arrested on allegations of corruption, following a probe by the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau. Ong is the managing director of Hotel Properties Limited that owns several high-end hotels and resorts around Asia and the Pacific. They were later released on bail. Details of the charges were, however, yet to be disclosed. Ong is a Malaysian, who was granted permanent residence in Singapore. He was ordered to leave the country by the Prime Minister. Singapore has long had the reputation of being one of the least corrupt country in the world.
