Singapore | 1996 | In February 1996, Japan’s Tomen Corp. and Marubeni Corp., Germany’s Siemens AG, Britain’s BICC Cables plc and Italy’s Pirelli Cables, along with some subsidiaries, were debarred from Singapore government contracts.
«Appeal in cases involving corruption is normally not allowed,» the ministry said. The ban stretched from January 27, 1996 to January 26, 2001. A consultant working for the firms allegedly gave bribes to the Public Utilities Board Deputy Chief Executive, in exchange for confidential information on public tenders.[i] | ü |
