Banker caught up in Malaysian 1MDB scandal went on $8.2m Gold Coast property splurge
A former banker from Singapore accused of laundering money linked to Malaysia’s 1MDB scandal used a tax haven company as part of an $8.2m-plus splurge on Gold Coast property over little more than a year.
Yeo Jiawei’s foray into Australian property began with a $1.3m luxury oceanfront apartment in Surfers Paradise, which he bought in 2014 direct from a collapsed developer.
