Commissioner of Charities acts to remove City Harvest church leaders

[Extremist]

The Commissioner of Charities (COC) is acting to remove eight leaders of City Harvest Church, including its founder Kong Hee, from office. This is after they were suspended last year by COC following an inquiry which revealed there was mismanagement of funds at the church.

The eight are: Kong Hee, a board member of the church; Lam Leng Hung, the board's chairman and a trustee; Tan Ye Peng, vice-chairman of the board and a trustee; Kelvin Teo Meng How, executive director of the church's administration division; Sharon Tan Shao Yuen; Chew Eng Han; Jacqueline Tan Su Pheng and Serina Wee Gek Yin, all executive members of the church.

If the COC is successful in applying to remove them - with the consent of the Attorney General's Chambers - the eight will no longer be allowed to hold any office positions in City Harvest Church or any other charities for life.

Six of them - Kong Hee, Lam Leng Hung, Tan Ye Peng, Sharon Tan, Chew Eng Han and Serina Wee - are also facing criminal proceedings for allegedly embezzling more than $50 million from their parish. The trial starts on May 15.

BREAKING: Official statement by City Harvest Church Executive Pastor Aries Zulkarnain

"This is a very challenging time for our eight Church leaders and members, their families, and our Church. Please continue to pray ceaselessly for them and for the Church. Let us remember what our Advisory Chairman Dr AR Bernard has exhorted us to do:

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer"

Read the rest of the statement below:

What happened

On 31 May 2010 the COC instituted an inquiry under section 8 of the Charities Act (Cap 37) (“the Act”) into our Church. Following the inquiry, nine City Harvest Church leaders and members, including the eight individuals mentioned above and the wife of Pastor Kong, Sun Ho, were suspended from their office(s) or employment as governing board member, officer, agent or employee of, or trustee for, the Church in June and August 2012.

In December 2012, the COC had requested for these suspended individuals, to voluntarily extend their suspension until six months after the conclusion of the criminal proceedings involving six of the eight affected individuals.

The COC informed the suspended individuals that should they not give their consent for the extension, the COC may proceed to consider removal under section 25A of the Act.

But despite the fact that a majority of the nine suspended individuals had voluntarily consented to the extension of their suspension, the COC has notified all of the individuals, with the exception of Sun, of his intention to remove them from their office(s) or employment of the Church, following a 10-month suspension.

What happens now

Pastor Kong and Pastor Tan will continue to perform their pastoral duties.

Under section 29 of the Act, before the COC makes an order to remove without his consent a governing board member of a charity or trustee for a charity, or an officer, agent or employee of a charity, the COC shall give him not less than one month’s notice of the COC proposal, inviting representations to be made to the COC within a time specified in the notice.

The eight have until 13 May 2013 to make their representations to COC on why they should not be removed.

This is a very challenging time for our eight Church leaders and members, their families, and our Church. Please continue to pray ceaselessly for them and for the Church. Let us remember what our Advisory Chairman Dr AR Bernard has exhorted us to do:

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. (Rom. 12:12 ESV)

Yours in Christ
