SINGAPORE — For five years, contractors providing services to Wildlife Reserves Singapore who were bribing a senior director at the Singapore zoo also bribed a manager in order to buy her silence.

Chin, 44, pleaded guilty to nine charges under the Prevention of Corruption Act and three charges under the Corruption, Drug Trafficking and other Serious Crimes Act. Another 67 charges will be considered for her sentencing, which was adjourned to 16 February. The director at the Singapore Zoological Gardens of WRS was Barry Chong Peng Wee, who oversaw facilities management and procurement requests to rectify defects at the zoo.

Chong would send the job specifications for a project to Too and ask him to get his group of contractors to put in quotes for the project. The quotations received would be collated and presented to Chong and his managers. The project would usually be awarded to the lowest quote received.
