Pada 30 Jan, 2012, Pengerusi Falcon Bank Mohamed Al-Husseiny telah dihubungi oleh seseorang yang berupa sebagai "Eric Tan" dengan menggunakan akaun e-mel erickimloong.tan@gmail.com , dengan permohonan kepada bank untuk membuka akaun bagi pihak seorang kawan.
Al-Husseiny menjawab Eric Tan dan panjangkan salin e-mel tersebut kepada Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Falcon (CEO) Eduardo Leemann, yang kemudiannya mengarakhan Sturzenegger untuk pergi ke Kuala Lumpur untuk bertemu Eric Tan.
Di Kuala Lumpur, Sturzenegger telah dibawa ke kediaman oleh Eric Tan yang kemudiannya memperkenalkan semula dirinya sebagai Jho Low.
Tetapi Sturzenegger diberitahu oleh Jho Low untuk terus mengenalinya sebagai "Eric" atau "Eric Tan" atas sebab2 keselamatan.
Ia hanya semasa proses pembukaan akaun itu, baru Sturzenegger menyedari bahawa Eric Tan dan Jho Low bukanlah orang yang sama selepas dia melihat salinan pasport dan kurikulum vitae Eric Tan Kim Loong yang sebenarnya.
Sehingga Oktober 2012, empat akaun telah dibuka dengan Falcon bawah nama Eric Tan. Akaun2 ini akan kekal aktif sehingga Mac 2013.
Pada 18 Mac, 2013, melalui arahan melalui e-mel daripada Eric Tan Falcon telah diberitahu untuk menjangkakan aliran masuk lebih daripada AS $ 1 bilion daripada tiga dana: Dana Pelaburan Cistenique, Dana Pasaran Baru Muncul Enterprise dan Dana Devonshire Ltd.
Akaun e-mel yang sama (Eric Tan) juga telah menghantar arahan kepada kedua-dua ibu pejabat Falcon dan cawangannya di Singapura supaya memasukkan dana2 itu kepada pelbagai pihak lain.
Menurut Timbalan Pendakwa Raya, Sturzenegger menjadi "amat bimbang" mengenai pergerakan jumlah wang yang besar dan mempunyai keraguan bahawa dana itu sememangnya modal yang diperolehi dari pelbagai dana yang kemudiannya dilaburkan dengan Tan.
"Dalam perbualan pada 21 Mac, 2013, dengan rakan-rakannya, tertuduh menyatakan kebimbangan bahawa aliran masuk dana mungkin berkaitan dengan pengubahan wang haram(money laundering)," kata Timbalan Pendakwa Raya Leong Weng Tat. - theedgemarkets

Ooops!!! Jho Low dan Eric Tang
olang yang sama...
Najib Razak sebelum ini mendakwa wang AS$681 juta atau kira-kira RM2,600 juta yang diterimanya melalui akaun peribadi di Ambank adalah derma daripada kerabat Diraja Arab Saudi.
WSJ dalam pendedahannya, bagaimanapun membuktikan bahawa wang itu disalurkan daripada akaun Tanore Finance, sebuah syarikat yang didaftarkan di British Virgin Island dan dipunyai oleh Eric Tan.
Pemindahan wang tersebut dilakukan melalui Falcon Private Bank di Singapura.
Najib menerima wang itu pada Mac 2013, kira-kira dua bulan sebelum pilihanraya umum 2013 diadakan.
Peguam Negara, Apandi Ali ketika membersihkan Najib daripada sebarang salahlaku berkaitan penerimaan wang yang dikaitkan dengan 1MDB kemudian mengatakan sebahagian besar wang itu iaitu AS$620 juta telah dipulangkan kembali kepada pendermanya kerana ia tidak digunapakai.
Baiknya hati Najib...barangkali hanya beliau seorang di dunia ini yang pernah diberikan wang AS681 juta, tetapi kemudian memulangkannya kembali sebanyak AS$620 juta kerana ia tidak digunakan!!
Pengembalian wang itu berlaku pada 30 Ogos 2013, sama tarikh dengan akaun Najib di Ambank ditutup.
Sarawak Report dalam butirannya mendedahkan, wang itu sebenarnya dikembalikan kepada Tanore Finance iaitu syarikat yang sama yang memasukkan AS$681 juta kepada Najib sebelum itu.
Mudah kata, Najib dapat AS$681 juta daripada Tanore Finance dan AS$620 juta kemudian dikembalikan kepada Tanore Finance juga.
Itu cerita yang mula heboh sejak 2015 dahulu dan masih menjadi bualan hingga sekarang.
Dua hari lalu di mahkamah Singapura iaitu pada 11 Januari 2017, dalam kes perbicaraan bekas Pengurus Cawangan Falcon Private Bank negara itu, Jens Sturzenegger atas kesalahan berkaitan penggubahan wang haram, telah didedahkan bahawa Jho Low dan Eric Tan adalah orang yang sama. Baca seterusnya...
Jho Low guna nama proksi Eric Tan
Jho Low used 'Eric Tan' as proxy name
Wow folks. This is real life that is stranger than fiction. Just like in Tamil Nadu the recently expired former movie star Chief Minister Jayalalitha perhaps died days or weeks earlier. The crooks embalmed her body and had everyone believe that she was being secluded in an ICU in the hospital. First a hospital in Chennai. Now they say that she was actually secretly flown out to a hospital in London. Donno if the Brits can confirm their end of the story though. I must put a disclaimer - these are the many versions of the story. I have stopped following the story. Maybe just wait for the movie to come out.
Stranger things have happened and are happening in Malaysia. Yup its 1MDB again. You must read the latest report from The Thingy here.
As I said earlier, this is simple thievery. Ini kes curi. The 1MDB related cases (four so far) are being heard in the Singapore courts. The nitty gritty of the thievery are now coming out in Court.
Forged letters, dummy companies and now fake signatures or pretending to be someone else (who may not even have existed). There must be at least one event of "hiding behind doors" somewhere along the line.
The Thingy says that the person signing cheques as Eric Tan could be none other than Hippo herself ! ! She wanted to control the money.
Here is an excerpt :
Who was the actual signatory on the accounts?
Last week The Thingy connected the dots and concluded that the name of ‘Eric Tan’, the beneficial owner of several 1MDB related bank accounts, appeared to be merely an alias for the master-mind behind the thefts, Jho Low.
Now, the Singapore court has confirmed this suspicion, explaining that the Falcon Bank branch boss, Jans Sturzenegger, had confessed that Jho Low told him he used the identity on certain occasions ‘for security purposes‘.
Sturzenegger was sentenced to 28 weeks jail and a fine for initially lying to the authorities and failing to report suspicious transactions, making him the first western banker to be convicted in this affair.
That Tan was actually Low confirms the point made by The Thingy that someone who has stolen billions of dollars would be highly unlikely to trust the money in the hands of another.
It was for this reason that it was obvious Low would not have put a genuine associate in control of these vast accounts.
However, Low was not the only player behind this sorry saga and there were others who likewise were anxious for their own assurances.
The Thingy has heard through very well-placed sources that there was therefore a check on the use of these accounts, which was that the actual signatory was not Jho nor Eric, but someone else. That signature was needed to authorise payments.
The Thingy has been told that this signatory was a woman with whom Jho Low was closely associated in the matter of 1MDB.
So, when insiders informed us over a year ago that Hippo had complained over Jho Low’s spending, exclaiming “It’s my money as well”, perhaps this is what they were referring to?
I have always wondered about this part. The husband acted as the 'receiving agent'. But surely Hippo must have put in some control mechanism to make sure that she was in full control of the money.
This is where Eric Tan comes in.
And .. .. jeng jeng jeng Tanore Finance.
"Tanore Finance, the company which passed on the cash, was in the name of Jho Low’s associate, Eric Tan .."
Well we know now that Eric Tan was JoLo (with Hippo as signatory??)
Therefore Tanore Finance was also JoLo and Hippo.
Lets refresh our memory a little folks : recall that on 22 March 2013 Tanore Finance transferred US$835 million into MOI's accounts at Ambank. This was part of that famous RM2.6 billion. (Would you believe it, the exchange rate was only RM3.11 ! ! )
NOW HERE IS THE OTHER BLOCKBUSTER : That pendek fellow confirmed that the RM2.6 billion was a donation and that after a certain amount was used, the balance of the donation was returned to the same source.
Folks there was no donation.
The source of the US$835 million or RM2.6 billion "donation" was Tanore Finance which was owned by a fake "Eric Tan" who is actually JoLo whose bank accounts were also co-signed by Hippo. (And one Jasmine Loo Ai Swan.)
After deducting for election expenses, the balance remaining from the RM2.6 billion was "returned to the same source".
What this means is that the balance money was sent back to the Hippo's control at Tanore Finance's account in Falcon Bank.
The Singaporeans know this. Well no big deal, the Singaporeans would know the facts of the case. If that is what happened then the Singaporeans would find out from their investigations. You cannot hide things like this.
This is a really serious twist to the whole crime. The Singaporeans will issue a warrant of arrest for JoLo. They should or they must. Now they can also issue a warrant of arrest for Hippo ! ! Instead of MO1 ! ! It will be a great face saving device for 'across the straits relations' if MO1 was left out of the Courts in Singapore. But not the wife.
In fact this information already implicates the wife. The warrant may be issued for her instead. Or maybe the Americans or the Swiss may do it instead.

No fun being Tiong Lai...
I don't envy Liow Tiong Lai despite his datukship, his ministerial position in the Najib administration and his presidency in the MCA. Why? Every time or rather most of the times Datuk Seri Liow says something and comments on issues, he would draw flak from fellow Malaysians, the majority of whom are the very people he and his party claim to represent. Sometimes it's because of his own doing. Sometimes not.
But in a nutshell people seem to have a dislike for Liow and his party. And they have their own reasons for feeling such. Put it the other way, many are not impressed with Liow & Co
But I must admit what I'm saying here is just based on comments in social media only, not a detailed study or a survey.
Hence the negative comments could have come from people who are "pro-opposition" if you like. Yet, there are so-called "neutral" people who do not have nice words for Liow and the MCA for that matter. This I say for a fact, having the honor of knowing some of the neutrals personally. I agree there surely are "positive" comments from supporters of Liow. And it could be just me who somehow must have missed detecting the "praises and accolades" for the MCA president
Nevertheless, Liow and MCA have important matters to handle. That's saying the obvious. For this article, I'll try to highlight just three, not in order of importance as all three are of equal significance.
No. 1: The Chinese primary school funding issue. As we know, Chinese primary schools complained of not receiving the RM50 million grant allocated to them. That was sometime last December. The allocation was for the year 2016, announced in October 2015 by the finance minister in his Budget speech.
Anyway, a Malaysiakini report on January 1 this year said Liow promised to sort it out with prime minister cum finance minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak. Comments from netizens came thick and fast. Someone pointed out that the allocation announced in 2015 should come into effect in 2016, and thus "MCA has been sleeping and suddenly woke up to find coffers empty".
The unnamed commentator went on to say: " You certainty won't wait Dec 2016 to start looking into empty promises and start talking to the PM after the New Year . That's a sick joke Mr. Liow ". on January 4, Malaysiakini ran a report from Sin Chew Daily which quoted Liow as saying he and his deputy Datuk Seri Wee Ka Siong had met Najib and that the PM had promised to resolve the issue "as soon as possible". People who made remarks in social media were not convinced. Enough said as you get the drift.
No. 2: Hudud. Oops! I mean Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang's private member's bill aimed at "empowering the Shariah courts". MCA, according to Liow, is against it. Umno on the other hand is supportive of the bill, so much so it wants to "adopt' the bill, making it a BN initiative, which the MCA must support by virtue of being a component of the coalition.
Need MCA be reminded (in fact the party has already been reminded by Umno) by convention all members of parliament and state assemblymen from BN components must support any motion tabled by the BN. Liow has said many times he would be bringing the matter up with the PM. But remember it was Najib in his capacity as Umno president who announced that his party would embrace Hadi's bill and tabled it in the Parliament.
We are hearing now the MCA via its legal team has come up with a study on the Shariah bill. I assume it contains the party's "reservations and objections" to the bill. The study said Liow, as reported, would present it to the cabinet with the intention of bringing it to the Parliament to be debated. Is this an "alternative" bill from the MCA?
Umno has always claimed the Hadi bill is all about the "religion of Islam". So, will Umno agree to an "alternative" to the "Islamic bill " drawn up by a non-Muslim party? Granted the non-Muslim party is a long and close friend of Umno. Feel free to come to your own conclusion.
And for the record, Parti Amanah Negara, a party whose leaders are well versed in Islamic matters but differ from the views of PAS' Hadi Awang, acted much earlier. As early as October last year, Amanah, through its Kota Raja MP Dr. Siti Mariah Mahmud, filed an alternative bill (also a private member's bill) to enhance the Shariah courts. But it was rejected by the Dewan Rakyat Speaker.
No. 3: The UEC issue. Unified Examination Certificate is not recognized by the government much to the chagrin of many, especially the Chinese community. This is a long-standing issue with no solution in sight despite numerous demands and requests made to the government by Chinese educationists, associations and guilds, including MCA
In last year's MCA general assembly, Liow, in the presence of Najib, called upon the government to give recognition to the UEC. Najib responded in his speech by promising to work closely on Chinese education. But days later, at the Umno general assembly, several delegates spoke against the UEC, telling the government not to bow to demands.
Prior to the assembly, in fact only days earlier, the pro-Umno or rather Umno-linked Gabungan Pelajar Melayu Semenanjung (GPMS) had urged Najib not to recognize the UEC, claiming that the examination system was "not in line with the national education policy".
I wonder whom Najib will listen to… He will have to juggle between being the president of Umno and BN, and the prime minister of Malaysia. Nothing to be envious there. But most of all, as said earlier, I do not envy Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai. Not even a little bit.- Mohsin Abdullah,sinchew daily
