SINGAPORE — A businessman and his former wife came up with a sham with the intention of reducing the value of his assets as he was going through a divorce with his current wife, a High Court judge has found. In August 2023, the former wife, Chiang Ai Ling, filed a $13.7 million lawsuit against Tan Kian Chye and his second wife, Ang Siew Yan. Ang had filed for divorce from Tan in December 2022. Chiang alleged that Tan had failed to pay her the sum in exchange for her transferring all her shares in his company to him. She claimed that he had orally agreed in 2015 to pay her 25 per cent of the proceeds from the sale of his company. Tan, who has a child with each woman, did not contest the lawsuit. But Ang contended that the purported 2015 agreement was a sham conceived by Chiang and Tan to reduce the assets liable for division in the ongoing divorce. In a written judgement issued on Dec 30, Justice Audrey Lim said the evidence showed that the purported agreement never existed and that the sham was conceived after Ang filed for divorce.

After missing Brisbane Roar’s first eight games of the season due to knee surgery, the 20-year-old Singaporean ran onto the Perry Park pitch to cheers from her father and many among the 3,612-strong crowd on Jan 4. Coming on for Evdokiya Popadinova in the 72nd minute, the No. 9 was involved in some attacking moves, and within seconds, she was celebrating with her teammates as Laini Freier opened the scoring against the visiting Canberra United with a neat finish into the bottom corner. But Emma Robers equalised in the 81st minute with a long-range effort before Michelle Heyman completed the comeback for Canberra seven minutes later despite suspicions of handball. With the defeat, the Roar missed the opportunity to leapfrog Melbourne City to the top of the 12-team league after nine games. On Jan 5, City extended their lead to four points after a 1-1 draw at bottom club Sydney FC, but have played a game more.
