SG Widow and China Tour Guide Asset Tussle . .. .

 

http://www.straitstimes.com/news/singapore/courts-crime/story/tussle-over-widows-40m-assets-turns-ugly-20140903

 

A seven-hour stand-off between an 87-year-old Singaporean widow and a 34-year-old woman from China ended yesterday after the younger woman agreed to leave the widow's $30 million bungalow, where she had stayed for a year without rent.

 

It was the latest twist in a saga that began in 2008, after the widow, retired physiotherapist Chung Khin Chun, met the Chinese woman's tour guide husband while on holiday in China.

 

The 40-year-old man, Mr Yang Yin, later got close to Madam Chung and, in 2009, moved into her Gerald Crescent bungalow, allegedly took over her assets worth $40 million and brought his family to live with him there.

 

Madam Chung's niece, 60-year-old travel agency owner Hedy Mok, started court proceedings to revoke Mr Yang's guardianship of her aunt's $40 million assets earlier this year

My personal opinion. If the family of the old lady is closed to her, I don't think the man has a chance to move into the bungalow.

It never pays to be good to ah tiongs. Even their own species care less about their kind than us.

 

Sad to say, it is better to see one ah tiong in desolate than to lend a helping hand. You never know if it is trouble awaiting.

Don't know the details yet so can't comment. Could it be the old lady gives the $30M bungalow to the china man?

 

If the bungalow belongs to the old lady, I think she has the right to give it to anybody.

of course she has the right. but i think the article states that the lady might not have had all of her mental faculties running at 100%.

(if you read in ST today, it says the niece was sitting in the car with her aunt who appeared "dazed" ... from what it sounded, she might have had Alzheimer's i think)
