Who knew Singapore had its own version of Creflo Dollar?
From a Singapore friend's FB page:
http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/city-harvest-church-founder-kong-hee-puts-sentosa-cove-home-for-sale-for-10m
City Harvest Church (CHC) founder Kong Hee has put his luxurious penthouse family home in Sentosa Cove up for sale.
He and a co-owner are asking a cool $10 million for the duplex unit, more than the $9.33 million they paid in 2007.
Kong and five others are alleged to have misused $50 million of church funds and then falsified church accounts to cover up the misuse. They are accused of funnelling millions from the church's building fund to pay for the Crossover Project, to boost the music career of Kong's wife Ho Yeow Sun.
In a trial spanning two years, the court heard that the 50-year-old pastor, who is facing three charges of criminal breach of trust, co-owned The Oceanfront penthouse with Indonesian tycoon Wahju Hanafi.
