Roger Ng Previously Convicted of Conspiracies to Pay More Than $1.6 Billion in Bribes to a Dozen Foreign Officials, and to Launder Billions Embezzled from 1Malaysia Development Berhad
BROOKLYN, NY – Earlier today, Ng Chong Hwa, also known as “Roger Ng,” a citizen of Malaysia and a former Managing Director of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (Goldman Sachs), was sentenced by United States District Judge Margo K. Brodie to 10 years’ imprisonment for conspiring to launder billions of dollars embezzled from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), conspiring to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) by paying more than $1.6 billion in bribes to a dozen government officials in Malaysia and Abu Dhabi, and conspiring to violate the FCPA by circumventing the internal accounting controls of Goldman Sachs. The forfeiture amount will be determined at a later date. In April 2022, Ng was convicted by a federal jury on all counts following a nine-week trial.
Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York; Kenneth A. Polite, Jr., Assistant Attorney General of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division; Michael J. Driscoll, Assistant Director-in-Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office (FBI); and Tyler Hatcher, Special Agent-in-Charge, Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation, Los Angeles Field Office (IRS-CI), announced the sentence.
“Roger Ng was a central player in a brazen and audacious scheme that not only victimized the people of Malaysia, but also risked undermining the public’s confidence in governments, markets, businesses and other institutions on a global scale,” stated United States Attorney Peace. “Today’s sentence serves as a just punishment for the defendant’s crimes and a warning that there is a significant price to pay for corporate corruption.”

Hmmmm....just what exactly is the Federal Election Commission for? If you said for prosecuting Republicans, you would be correct.

DiCaprio should be arrested for knowing about the fraud and not reporting it.
