THE EDGE OWNER, TONG KOOI ONG, UNDER PROBE

It seems next week the Malaysian and Thai police will be meeting to streamline the investigation and share whatever information each side may have. It looks like this investigation has now gone beyond just data stealing, blackmail and fraud but now involves an investigation into conspiracy as well.

Tong Kooi Ong, the owner of The Edge, is being investigated by the Malaysian authorities as to whether he is also the owner of the RM9 million luxury villa that Xavier Andre Justo was staying in when he was arrested for data stealing and blackmail, and possible fraud as well.

The villa is on a hill in Ko Samui, Thailand, overlooking the sea with the following specifications:

Master Villa

–  1 guest room + dressing room + bathroom

–  Office + library + bathroom

–  Living room and dining room+ toilet

Tong Kooi Ong is also being investigated as to whether he is financing Sarawak Report, which is said to be receiving its funding from foreign sources. This is to establish the link between Tong, Justo, Sufi Yusof, The Edge and Sarawak Report, and probably with Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad as well.
