Lee Rock was police. The HK equivalent of Roland Tan should be Ng Sek Ho aka Pai Hao
After doing all he did, was he a legitimate billionaire by any chance? Is he worth 120b like Jeff Bezos who didn't need to kill and rob (at least not brazenly)? If he isn't, than it was a life not fulfilled and worth the murders and the bad vices... Just another thief and thug to me. Good riddance...
Must be one of the very few old gangster heads who died of natural causes
china lah...
There no more logo. Everyone under one umbrella - Ah Kong. Ditto Cambodia and Bangkok.
He did Sinkapor proud lah back in the 70s!
Who in Amsterdam would have known about Sinkapor back than during the hippie days?

Either Johnny was Roland’s mum godson or the other way around.
With the cash they have, not easy to avoid gambling, womanising and drinking. Lots of CBT, cheating and politicking internally.
Up till the day he died, the police couldn't even catch him for his crimes, this guy must be somebody!
This government is not keen on criminals on-the-run. They weren’t ‘hurt’ politically or physically.
There are easily 500 in Malaysia, 80 in Cambodia and about the same number in Thailand. Their Interpol connections, as well as cordial ties with police in Malaysia and Thailand can easily locate these chaps. Just look at One-Eyed Dragon’s case as an example. Also, the Malay mata who killed father and son. They were swiftly located.
In S’pore, the authorities are only interested in political opponents. Not criminals.

Roland Tan Tong Meng, 72, one of Singapore's most notorious fugitives wanted for a murder in October 1969, has died in Denmark.
Tan suffered a heart attack in the middle of dinner party in Copenhagen on April 4, 2020.
He was the host in his own home.
At the time of his passing, he was of slight build with a bald pate.
His nickname in Denmark was Mr Big.
Even after leaving Singapore, he developed ties to organised crime and drug smuggling.
News of Tan's passing was reported in the Danish tabloid, Ekstra Bladet.
The funeral two weeks later on April 24 was also publicised with the headline, "Mr Big is dead".
His godson Robin Ungermann, 36, confirmed with Danish media that Tan had a heart attack and collapsed at his home.
An ambulance was immediately called but it was too late.
Funeral attended by underworld
Ekstra Bladet also reported that about 100 people attended Tan's funeral at a chapel in Frederiksberg, Denmark, on April 24.
Many in attendance were members of bikers' groups and former convicts.
Police were also present at the funeral, where a fight reportedly broke out among several guests.
The funeral was streamed live on Facebook to a closed group of Singaporeans.
This group included family, friends and gang members.
Condolences were left on a Facebook post announcing his death.
A slide show was also prepared.
The deceased was referred to as "Uncle Roland", and "Ah Gor", which means "brother".
His strong familial bonds with others was likely the result of loyalty.
Tan was said to have bailed people out of trouble, such as giving them money to repay debts owed to loan sharks.
Singapore planned to extradite Tan
The Singapore police had apparently planned to extradite Tan from Copenhagen in 1973.
But it did not come to pass due to a lack of evidence for a murder charge to proceed.
The police were offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to his arrest and conviction.
Tan's other alias was "Hylam Kia", which meant "Hainanese boy".
He came from a kampung in Serangoon.
Tan was said to have collected protection money from the Bras Basah area.
His reputation preceded him.
Local thugs in Singapore were also said to have been afraid of him.
Tan continued in the vice trade and built a drug empire in Amsterdam.
He then moved to Copenhagen and married a Danish woman.
He also got Danish citizenship.
There is no information about him having children.
He set up a restaurant named Bali, which was frequented by gangsters.
Shot in 2009 in Denmark
In 2009, Tan was shot in the shoulder by his Vietnamese bodyguard.
The incident occurred just before the start of his birthday party in his restaurant.
A Singaporean who had travelled to Copenhagen for his birthday was also shot.
Reports said there was a quarrel between Tan and his bodyguard before the shooting.
The Singapore police sent a request to the Danish police seeking more information at that time.
It is not known if there was any follow-ups after that request was made.
Tan shut down his restaurant and moved to Cambodia.
He returned to Denmark in 2019, where he lived in Havneholmen, off Kalvebod Brygge in Copenhagen Harbour.
Wanted for murder of man
Tan was wanted for the murder of a man named Lam Cheng Siew.
At around 12.30am on Oct. 24, 1969, Lam, then 31, was travelling with four friends near the junction of Bras Basah and North Bridge Road.
Their car was ambushed by a group of armed thugs in two cars.
Lam was left dead in a nearby drain.
He had stab wounds to his head and left arm.
Tan fled to Malaysia.
He then went to Amsterdam with the help of See Tong gang.
He lived up to his reputation till the end.

No 369 either
You're only a somebody if you left this world better than when you came in. Avoiding capture doesn't make you a somebody. It simply means the gahment doesn't think its worth their while to capture you because if they wanted to, they would have.
