Court told of how church founder used RM760,000 to boost wife’s music career

WHEN S$300,000 (RM760,000) was needed for, among other things, a party in the upmarket Hamptons area in New York to promote his wife’s music career, City Harvest founder Kong Hee gave the go ahead.

But when it came to keeping tabs on how to repay the church loan that helped pay for it, Kong admitted in court yesterday that he lacked full knowledge.
