Chin Fong Yi, 44, was also given a Chanel wallet by a project manager in exchange for her lenient supervision.

For more than five years, a former manager at Wildlife Reserves Singapore was given at least $500 a month for turning a blind eye to the collusion between a construction firm and her boss on projects with WRS.

Chin pleaded guilty to 12 charges of corruptly obtaining bribes and using criminal proceeds to buy items, with another 67 charges taken into consideration.The court heard on Wednesday that Chong would be paid a commission for projects awarded to the firm and the contractors it colluded with. Sometime in 2010 or 2011, she noticed that the prices on the quotations submitted by Shin Yong Construction and its group of contractors were very similar.
