SINGAPORE: Cecilia Sue Siew Nang was called to the stand on Wednesday in the continuing trial of former Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) chief Ng Boon Gay.
Ng, 46, faces four counts of corruption.
He allegedly obtained oral sex from Ms Sue on four occasions, in exchange for furthering the business interests of her then employers - Hitachi Data Systems and Oracle Corporation Singapore.
Ms Sue was a strategic sales director at Hitachi from April 2010 to November last year.
And in late November 2011, she joined Oracle as a senior sales manager.
She was called to the stand on Wednesday afternoon for the second day of Ng's trial.
In the morning hearing, Oracle's managing director Mr Leslie Ong took the stand again.
He told the court that Ms Sue was in charge of servicing the CNB account.
Under Senior Counsel Tan Chee Meng's cross-examination, the court heard that the company had no plans to engage CNB during their planning review process in December 2011
Mr Ong said for FY2012 to FY2014, forecasts from the planning review showed that there was no business contemplated with CNB for that period.
During the cross-examination, Mr Ong said Ms Sue was aware that in terms of potential business with CNB, there was nothing in the pipeline in the next three years.
Mr Ong also told the court that in mapping out and ranking the top officials of the agencies under the Home Affairs Ministry, Ms Sue was just following protocol and nothing was unusual.
Defence counsel Tan also touched on the compliance of the code of ethics at Oracle.
To that, Mr Ong said there are strict policies against corrupt practices and that all employees are expected to complete a course on ethics online.
