worked for many years,several of my colleagues and I set up
companies with which we successfully secure loans totalling
to US$350,000,000.00 for speculation in Hong Kong, China
and Singapore stocks and real estate.We did this because it
had dawned on us that we were paid barely enough to feed
our families while top government officials control
billions of dollars.The bank along with regulatory
authorities from China and Hong Kong started an
investigation into the losses
of money and as a result a few of my colleagues and I went
into hiding and have settled ourselves and our families.

with 25% of the entire sum.
It is my intention therefore having your understanding and
co-operation that you invest 70% of these funds in the
United States and Europe in commercial real estate as well
