Yang Yin thread: "Money, I love you!"

There, Yang got closer to Madam Chung, who asked him to call her daily after her return. He said she later asked him to "accompany" her to Singapore, telling him that she would support him financially.

That's the spirit, Yang Yin ! Fight for your freedom. Grandma is either suffering from dementia or she is not. She cannot be both. If she is a dementia patient, then she is not medically credible to mount a defense against your assertions, however incredulous they may be. If, however, she is clear minded enough to make a suitably cutting retort, then she proves that she is not suffering from dementia and there was no undue influence when she signed the original LPA.

But to say that she agreed to support you financially is tantamount to Yang Yin being a "kept boy". 你是被包养的! Good strategy !

SINGAPORE: When confronted by prosecutors with several inconsistencies in his testimony on Wednesday (Aug 3), Yang Yin stuck to his mantra: “It was a gift”.

Yang, 42, said this about the S$40,000 wealthy Singaporean widow Madam Chung Khin Chun had remitted to him in March 2009.

The former China tour guide insisted the money was for him to buy a car, after he had told Mdm Chung, now 89, that he had passed his driving test.

But prosecutors called Yang’s bluff, producing records showing Yang had obtained his licence in China only months later in August 2009, and converted this into a Singapore licence in October 2009.

“You lied to Mdm Chung that you had already obtained your licence in order to receive this S$40,000”, Deputy Public Prosecutor Sanjiv Vaswani said. Yang disagreed, despite the documentary evidence: “I’ve never lied to her.”

DPP Vaswani pointed out Mdm Chung’s driver of more than 30 years had been fired “conveniently, eight days after you converted your licence” on Oct 28, 2009.

Yang replied that Mdm Chung had fired the driver “because of some unpleasantness ... he (the driver) also didn’t quite like me”. Yang claimed the driver “used some Malay words, in an unfriendly tone” when Yang wanted to use the car to practise driving.

Yang also claimed the driver was fired after the driver had choked him.

Prosecutors also accused Yang of lying about two other sums - the S$4,000 and S$12,000 Mdm Chung had given to him in 2009.

He said he received S$4,000 from Mdm Chung as a token that she had accepted Yang as her grandson. But the prosecution said that Yang was exaggerating and that the amount was merely a new year red packet.

DPP Vaswani pointed to a letter that Yang had written to Mdm Chung dated Jan 3, 2009, in which Yang thanked the widow for a red packet.

Yang also claimed he received another sum of S$12,000 from Mdm Chung as a red packet for Chinese New Year.

As proof, Yang referred to a letter he wrote to Mdm Chung dated Apr 6, 2009 in which he thanked her for the red packet.

But the prosecution pointed out that it was "illogical" to thank Mdm Chung for a Chinese New Year red packet in April as the festival that year fell in January.

To that, Yang said that the only explanation was that his memory of the dates was wrong, adding that he had not considered whether it was illogical or not.

He added that in this world, many things do not follow logic - Mdm Chung and him having spent so many years living together being very good evidence of that.

Yang was also asked whether he had foreseen that he would have to spend a lot of time with Mdm Chung, as her alleged grandson. Yang replied yes and said that Mdm Chung needed him to accompany her.

But the prosecution put it that Yang was a frequent traveller: From the time Yang got his employment pass in 2009 to his arrest in 2014, he was away from Singapore for 307 days.

Yang said that he was only away temporarily, and that the duration of each trip would not exceed 10 days. He also said he would inform the maids to take care of Mdm Chung during his absence.

Yang was also asked about the police report he lodged on Aug 21, 2014, where he said Mdm Chung left the bungalow in Gerald Crescent with her niece Hedy Mok. Prior to that, Mdm Chung had been staying at the bungalow with Yang.

In the police report, Yang had described Mdm Mok as his relative. But the prosecution pointed out that during the trial on Tuesday, Yang said he had no relations with Mdm Mok and that he was not familiar with her.

DPP Vaswani argued this showed Yang had no qualms about telling the police he was Mdm Mok's relative, and that he would exaggerate his relationships with people.

To that, Yang said he was confused and that he was trying to fetch Mdm Chung back as soon as possible so he could bring her to see the doctor the following day.

But the prosecution pointed out that in the police report, Yang said he had lodged it for his lawyer's record.

Yang, who has been sued by Mdm Mok in the High Court, repeatedly asked prosecutors if they would be continuing to question him over overlapping aspects of his criminal and civil cases. This prompted Judge Jennifer Marie to ask the Mandarin interpreter to “tell (Yang) to just answer the questions”.

Faced with several inconsistencies, Yang explained them away by repeatedly telling prosecutors “maybe I wrote wrongly”, “maybe I recalled wrongly”, and finally “I did it in a hurry”, Yang said, referring to his affidavit, which documents monies Mdm Chung had transferred to him.

SINGAPORE: Former tour guide Yang Yin, accused of misappropriating S$1.1 million from a wealthy Singaporean widow, submitted a fake degree certificate in order to obtain permanent residency in Singapore, the prosecution alleged in court on Thursday (Aug 4).

Deputy Public Prosecutor Sanjiv Vaswani referred to two certificates submitted in the application, showing that Yang was granted a certificate of graduation on Jun 30, 2009 - a day before he was supposedly awarded a bachelor's degree on Jul 1, 2009.

To that, Yang said that it was "very normal" and that the certificates would sometimes be mailed out a day later. The DPP pointed out, however, that the dates were not postmarks.

This was one of several inconsistencies DPP Vaswani pointed out in Yang's evidence, continuing a line of questioning from Wednesday.

In an earlier statement to the police, Yang said that the widow, Madam Chung Khin Chun, had asked him to manage the funds in her bank accounts. But in a later affidavit, he claimed that the money in his bank accounts originated from Mdm Chung's bank and unit trust accounts and she ultimately gave him the money around December 2010 as a gift.

DPP Vaswani suggested in court on Thursday that he had made a "switch, a turnaround".

He also pointed out that the change in testimony happened after Yang was unable to make withdrawals from his accounts following legal proceedings taken against him.

The DPP said that the notion of the money being a gift was an "afterthought" for Yang to gain access to funds in the accounts.

The trial continues.

Yang Yin saga: Court of Appeal throws out former tour guide's appeal application against will

SINGAPORE- The Court of Appeal has thrown out an application by Yang Yin to appeal against a wealthy widow's will which leaves most of her assets to charity.

This closes one chapter in the ongoing saga, with Yang unable to submit further appeals against the new statutory will by Madam Chung Khin Chun, which the court recognised in 2015.

The new will replaces an earlier one made in 2010 where Yang stood to inherit everything including the 89-year-old widow's Gerald Crescent bungalow worth $30 million.

In a brief judgment released on Aug 1, Judges of Appeal Chao Hick Tin and Andrew Phang stated that the application was dismissed as they could not see any basis for interfering with an earlier decision in the lower courts to recognise the widow's new will.

The court has to act in the "best interests" of Madam Chung in deciding whether or not to recognise the will and this formed the basis for the District Judge's earlier decision, they noted. The judge had found the new will to be "more consistent" with Madam Chung's convictions, values and beliefs.

Yang, 42, had earlier argued that there was a procedural failure in the proceedings as the judge had denied his lawyers the chance to cross-examine witnesses who had given evidence to support the application for the new will.

His appeal was dismissed by the High Court in April this year.

The high-profile case involving Yang and the wealthy widow unfolded in 2014 after Madam Chung's niece, Madam Hedy Mok, evicted Yang's wife, who had been living in her aunt's house for about a year with her two young children.

Separately, Yang is on trial for two criminal breach of trust charges for allegedly misappropriating $1.1 million from Madam Chung.

In May this year, he pleaded guilty to 120 charges- most of which were for immigration offences and faking receipts for payments made to his company so he could stay in Singapore.

Just curious, since court had many months ago already allowed the new will to stand, as well prevented him from liquidating the 2 insurance for funds to fight his cases, Yang Ying is basically broke. Unless someone is funding him, why are lawyers still acting for him? How are the lawyers expecting to be paid? Did they do it pro prono?

Wonder who advised him to change his guilty plea recently? He already nailed his own coffin by changing his plea to continue to fight his case which he knew was all BS. Unless he has unrefutable evidences, which he obviously did not from the ongoing grilling from DPP, winning a case is really to convince the judge of his evidence, not by his words alone. By flipping pratas, he already self prawned that he cannot be trusted.

In any case, it just goes to show how even the likes of Yang Ying can easily play SG's MPs, Immigration for his PR by fake certs, sweet talked old ladies, if niece of Mdm Chung did not raise hell for Yang Ying. PR in SG is really worthless and citizens screwed.

Well, this removes one important incentive for Yang Yin to carry on fighting.

In the first place, why didn't he mount a serious challenge when Hedy Mok started proceedings to revoke the original LPA ? Till now we still don't know the identity of the lawyer or law firm who prepared the original LPA. We heard about the maid, the driver and Mdm Chung's buddy who is a retired teacher.

Why did the press go at great length to talk about those people who testimonies were inconsequential compared to the professional who oversaw the actual process?

He had moved funds to his father's and wife's account in China among other things. These funds have not be recovered. The moment I saw that he changed lawyer to Irving Choh, I knew what was going to happen. When he told the court he wanted to plead guilty unexpectedly about 4 weeks ago, this lawyer was caught off-guard. He knew that this guy has money stashed away. He must have spent the weeks following to convince Yang that he had a "good chance" so he can milk him for days in court. Thus the reversal to fight the case.

This lawyer is well known. See how badly the defence is so far. The DPP is picking and shredding his testimony point by point. There is only one conclusion that the judge can come to.

This is one possible source of fund. However, it may opens up another issue for Yang Ying.

If I not wrong, once he is convicted of misappropriation, and since the case of money being send to his father was established, won't it enable the plaintiff to now pursue the misappropriated funds from his father, traceable to the bank account that remitted Funds back to SG for his legal fees? As is from PRC, traceability may be slim though.

Hope when his case is closed, the next battle will be to get his father to return the money remitted to plaintiff, if Mok is on a rid-all warpath, since money is not an issue for the old lady.

Very strange that his lawyer is still acting for him when YY is flip flopping and nailing his own coffin at every question. Guess the bill from lawyer will commensurate with what YY is being accused of misappropriated.

The niece has already taken out a civil suit to recover but the chances are nil. He transferred much of the money much earlier. They would have hidden it by now and in China tracing and freezing it as good as lost. Even pursuing bankruptcy in China is pointless as the assets will not be in his name.

This guy is going to sit it out in jails for a number of years and then go back to retire. He however has to pray that the wife does not take the money and find someone else.

The authorities should have detained the wife for conspiracy or retaining stolen finds. At least hope of recovery is there.

The niece was brilliant. She knew she cannot rely on the Police Force. She immediately set in motion a whole series of civil suits and even stopped him covering the insurance. She knows full well that she is not going to recover funds from China but the Civil suit is a pressure point just in case the Police and the DPP slip and she can ensure that he remains in Singapore to address the civil suit.

Yang Yin trial: Ex-tour guide wants to 'give up' testifying, says he is stressed and unwell

SINGAPORE - A former tour guide on trial for misappropriating money from a rich widow had a moment of panic in court on Friday (Aug 5) and asked for permission to "give up" testifying.

Yang Yin, a Chinese national, has pleaded guilty to 120 charges but claimed trial a week ago to criminal breach of trust charges.

But before the prosecution could begin its cross-examination on Friday, Yang, who is accused of allegedly misappropriating $1.1 million from Madam Chung Khin Chun, 89, said he was unable to continue being cross-examined. "I feel very stressed," he told the court through an interpreter, adding he was physically and emotionally unwell. He had been on the stand since Tuesday (Aug 2).

Deputy Presiding Judge of the State Courts Jennifer Marie then asked if he was able to proceed with the trial. He replied: "I would like to request Your Honour... I would like to give up giving testimony."

The former tour guide then requested time alone with his lawyer, Mr Irving Choh. After the 15-minute break, Mr Choh made an application for his client to undergo a medical examination by the prison authorities. This is to ascertain and ensure that Yang is "physically and mentally able" to continue giving evidence in court, said Mr Choh.

Judge Marie then agreed to adjourn the hearing to Aug 15 for Yang to undergo medical examination at the Changi Medical Complex, which would determine if there is "good cause" for him to refuse to answer any questions, she said.

Yang had been expected to plead guilty but withdrew that decision last week, saying he had more evidence to submit. He is facing two charges over allegedly misappropriating $500,000 and $600,000 from Madam Chung. The prosecution has sought to poke holes in his statements, and Yang admitted on Thursday (Aug 4) that he had lied in at least one instance when it suited him.

In May, Yang pleaded guilty to 120 other charges, most of which involve falsification of receipts to make it appear that a business he set up was real.

In 2014, Madam Chung's niece, Madam Hedy Mok, began a series of civil actions to strip Yang of any hold over her aunt, claiming he had unduly influenced the old woman.

In 2008, Yang was Madam Chung's private tour guide when she visited Beijing. A year later, he moved in to live with her in her Gerald Crescent bungalow worth an estimated $30 million, and gained power of attorney over her affairs.

Ex-tour guide mulls over pleading guilty - again

He had indicated that he wanted to plead guilty last month, but changed his mind

Carolyn Khew

With his trial drawing to a close, a former tour guide accused of criminal breach of trust is considering for a second time if he should throw in the towel.

Yang Yin's lawyer, Mr Irving Choh, told reporters yesterday his client is thinking about whether to plead guilty or continue to fight the charges against him. Yang had asked to meet his lawyer after the cross examination yesterday.

This is not the first time the 42-year-old, charged with allegedly misappropriating $1.1 million from widow Chung Khin Chun, is wavering in his defence. He first indicated that he wanted to enter a guilty plea on July 8, the fifth day of the trial. But three weeks later, he told the court that he had changed his mind as he had more evidence to show.

Yesterday, Yang also asked Deputy Presiding Judge of the State Courts Jennifer Marie if he could leave Changi Prison to accumulate more evidence for his case.

"I just want Your Honour to approve my request because I wish to leave Changi Prison and see if I can find more evidence," said Yang, who has been in remand since October 2014 after being denied bail.

Judge Marie rejected his requestand said if Yang needed more evidence, his lawyer could advise him.

SEEKING 'MORE EVIDENCE'

I just want Your Honour to approve my request because I wish to leave Changi Prison and see if I can find more evidence.

YANG YIN , to the judge yesterday. The judge rejected his request.

Doctors at the Changi Medical Complex had also certified he was well enough to proceed with the trial, she said. The judge had adjourned the hearing on Aug 5 for Yang to be examined by doctors. The Chinese national had wanted to stop testifying, saying he was stressed and physically and emotionally unwell.

The medical examination, however, showed that while he was suffering from acute stress disorder, he was well enough to take the stand.

Midway through cross-examination by the prosecution yesterday, Yang was seen rocking back and forth.

The prosecution continued to point out inconsistencies in his statements over the money he had allegedly siphoned from the 89-year-old widow - $500,000 in 2010 and $600,000 in 2012.

Yang said in court yesterday that $500,000 was transferred to his father's account in China in order to pay debts incurred for his grandmother's medical bills. She died in 2008, Yang said.

The prosecution, however, charged that this was a "fabrication" and produced a receipt dated March 1, 2010, which showed that Yang had used $500,000 to buy a painting of a horse by Chinese artist Xu Beihong. Yang had mentioned the painting in his police statements, but later told the court it was a cover-up.

He said he did not buy the painting, but said he did only because Madam Chung wanted to avoid jealousy in case relatives found out large sums of money were given to him.

In May, Yang pleaded guilty to 120 other charges, most of which involved falsification of receipts to make it appear that a business he set up was real.

The trial continues today.
