Chapter 583 (1/2)
Hearing Zhou Hao's words, Suharto immediately thought that he wanted to make his own fortune. He put his hand into his trousers pocket and said, ”I don't understand what you're talking about. I've been working hard for the prosperity and stability of Indonesia all my life. I'm honest and just. How can I have so much money?”
Even though Zhou Hao was a man of two generations, he had never seen a man so brazen that he admired Suharto who did not know what shame was. He said with a smile to Suharto, ”Suharto, you don't have to waste your effort. I know you have a transmitter on you that will let your people know where you are. However, let alone that we have installed radio jammers here, you will not be able to contact the outside. And even if your people know you're here, there's nothing you can do about it. ”
Suharto saw through Zhou Hao's intention immediately and was greatly surprised.
Zhou Hao sat down on the sofa beside Pang Jintang, and immediately a servant brought him fragrant tea. Zhou haochao looked stunned and said with a smile: ”if you are smart, you can hand over your money, which is also to make up for the crimes you have committed in the past decades. Otherwise, hum and hum...”
”Most of the old beast's money is in Swiss banks, as well as banks in South America that are easy to launder money under the control of drug lords.” Pang Jinting said that their chamber of Commerce had been helping Suharto family to launder money for a long time, so they were very clear about Suharto's situation: ”however, those in the bank are only ordinary currencies, with a total of about US $56 billion. His greatest wealth is the shares of monopoly enterprises in Indonesia, such as telecommunications, mining, construction, roads, ports and oil, with a conservative estimate of about 12 billion US dollars. ”
Although Suharto didn't understand Chinese, he also knew that Pang Jintang told Zhou Hao about his financial situation. He immediately rushed to Pang Jintang and yelled, ”Pang Jintang, I'll kill you!”
Two members of the ”first army” immediately pressed his shoulder and made him unable to move.
”Brother Zhou, although our chamber of Commerce laundered money for the old beast, he didn't trust us completely. So we can only get a part of his money, and some of it is managed by the Lee Kuan Yew family in Singapore.” Pang Jintang told Zhou Hao, ”in fact, not only Suharto, but also corrupt officials in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines have given their stolen money to the Li family for bleaching. There are also those black money that can't be seen. In fact, Temasek holding company controlled by Lee Kuan Yew's family is the largest money laundering organization in Southeast Asia, even some military forces in the Middle East and Western Europe The organization and the Mafia are their customers. ”
Zhou Hao said: ”I have heard something about this. In fact, Singapore, a city-based country, has developed by helping others launder money.”
In his previous life, Zhou Hao had a certain understanding of the Lee Kuan Yew family and Temasek holding company controlled by him. Temasek holding company is the largest enterprise in Singapore. It controls dozens of Singapore state-owned enterprises and other 100 subsidiaries of Linlin. Its total assets reach 50 billion US dollars, and its controlled assets exceed 100 billion US dollars. It can be said that the vast majority of Singapore's economy is supported by Temasek holding company. Moreover, Temasek's investment scope is far from limited to Singapore. Even in China, Temasek's wholly-owned real estate company is one of the few large enterprises in China's real estate industry, which is no less inferior than Huangshi group of huangwanke. Even in the United States, Japan, Europe and other countries, Temasek invests in many companies.
However, just like Suharto in Indonesia, Singapore is completely under the rule of the Lee family. Moreover, the Li family's rule over Singapore is much stronger than Suharto's rule over Indonesia. Lee Kuan Yew is far more farsighted than Suharto's. his political skills are neither lack of iron and steel, but also full of sophistication, so they can play tricks with ease, It fully inherits the characteristics of ”good at fighting” of Chinese people.
Singapore is actually the kingdom of the Lee family, and Temasek holding company is actually the inner storehouse of the Lee family, including Lee Kuan Yew's two sons, Lee Hsien long and Lee Hsien Yang, and Lee Hsien Loong's wife, who hold high positions in the country.
However, Singapore can become one of the richest countries in Asia, Lee Kuan Yew is the greatest meritorious minister. If we put it in feudal society, it is not too much to say that he is a wise monarch, even if he wants to achieve his goal by any means.
Moreover, Lee Hsien Loong, Lee Kuan Yew's eldest son, will take over the post of Prime Minister of Singapore in 2004. Like the Kim family in North Korea, the country is always under the control of one family.
Pang Jintang said solemnly: ”the strength of Temasek is much stronger than that of our Indonesian Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Even the Chinese Chambers of Commerce in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines combined may not have the strength of Temasek. For a long time, the competition between Temasek and us in Indonesia has been very fierce. If we had not relied on our local advantages, we would have been defeated by Temasek for a long time. If we want to gain political power here in Indonesia and become the mainstream of Indonesia's economy, ”Temasek” will be no small obstacle. ”
