Singapore has long been a haven for the super wealthy, with its low taxes, safety and stability.Threatening to upend that carefully crafted image, however, is a sprawling $2.2 billion money laundering scandal. Though the vast majority of investment in the city-state is above board, its famous openness to inflows is now under scrutiny.

In March of 2006 I was in the DBS Bank on Orchard Rd in Singapore. A guy from China was was also waiting for a bank agent to serve him. He opened his bag and proceeded to pull out brick after brick of Chinese 100 yuan notes. He had no less than 2 dozen of these stacks of cash. Later I estimated that each stack was 100,000 yuan for a total of around $75,000USD. I asked my real estate agent who was helping me find an apartment. She said mainlanders routinely bring wads of cash into Singapore. In fact she had helped a 12 year old Chinese mainland boy rent an apartment as his parents had sent him to Singapore to attend school. He arrived alone by plane with a similar bag full of cash. Corrupt banking involving illicit money is as common as a bowl of steam boat or curry crab.

Precisely, Singapore is the World's rank 3rd Important Financial Centre, becos of such incredible efficiency to deal with Depositors' / Investors' monies; CASH / BANK DRAFTS / SWIFT REMITTANCES / Foreign Currencies futures / trading etc. etc. Personally, also encountered to declare CASH equivalent amount of SGD20,000 /- higher to ICA officers, at Singapore Airport, with documentations/source of the origin of the CASH and purpose of such importation. Actually, myself finding your story of a local bank, DBS Bank accepting stacks and stacks and stacks of Chinese Yuan 100 Cash notes making deposits, seemingly not possible, as if not mistaken, Singapore DBS Bank, does not accept direct physical Foreign Currency CASH bill notes deposits, only in Singapore Dollars Bill Notes. Are sure of this re-collection, or mistaken in Hong Kong, the Branch of DBS Bank there ??. Or the Chinese National observed, were depositing Stacks of Singapore 100 bill notes, where its orange color may be mistaken for the pink colored Chinese Yuan 100 bill notes?

If the system managed to pick it up, and the authorities acted on it, to me that means the system is working. What is Singapore without their credibility? That's their biggest currency, after all. I think the problem for SG authorities is trying to trace down the illicit gains of wealth without, ruffling the hairs of some very important people in - for example - the Communist Party of China.

Thing is though, Singapore built its reputation as 1 of Asia's cleanest places to do business, so having such a thing like this happening is an incredible stain on the country, especially considering the sheer scale of what was uncovered. I'm more of the view that they will try and stamp this out very hard and close the loopholes that were used to facilitate this whole operation because not doing so would significantly reduce Singapore's standard in the world of finance and business, which in turn could lead to investments being channeled elsewhere.

I’m not into finance but any ordinary people can see that a sizable amount of money in the global finance system is a dirty money, I’d say 10-20%. In Singapore’s case, you can’t filter all the predators in the ocean.

The worst of all by far is the US. Becuase nothing there is enforced or reported. The US is the only nation to not report accounts but it forces all other countries to report all data to the US. Hypocrites as usual. US also refuses to comply with international CRS, AML, and AEOI standards that almost all other nations have agreed to.

Besides money laundering, China has been using Singapore 🇸🇬 as a cover for its operations in other countries, including: - getting around US semiconductor restrictions and - hiding affiliation with the Chinese regime.

Their is no evidence provided about the claimed dirty money in this video. Just discussion regarding the too much inflow of money from a certain country, which gives a hint of systematic financial racism. Just one question: How are things working in Switzerland, Luxembourg, London, NY, dubai, and some rich island nations?? Tons of documentaries can be made about them.

The title is very misleading. While all the alleged criminals are Chinese or were Chinese, the dirty monies come from Myanmar and Cambodia, which organized crime organization operate illegal activities from.

At least the over $2B were actually gained from the exchange of goods or services, where there are mostly proponents whom got what they paid for illegal or not, and those gains would flow back into the economy anyway- whereas $2.6B in Malaysia... lol I dont think we need a further description of what happened there.

1.5 trillion of 'investment' in 2022 - is that just foreign money parked in banks or is there actual productive investment in Singapore's economy? Being a financial warehouse provides little toward the broader economy beyond a small numbet of ppl working for financial institutions.

Not surprising from a place once known released a 10000 Singapore Dollar banknote. I mean, that's a very HUGE amount of money in a single banknote.

These notes are harder to use in the real world. Long time ago when my mom brought me to the bank, she deposited $10K notes and she is required to bring her identification card as well as verify where the funds are sourced from. If anything, these are sort of a "trap" for money launderers.
