    Concise writing is a dead art, isn’t it?

    I guess the death sentence is one way to deter people from similar offences.

      Maybe she didn’t bribe them well enough? She should’ve been buying officials rather than property like we do in the west.

        From the article:

        “She faced an array of charges along with her husband, Eric Chu Nap Kee, a billionaire Hong Kong real estate operator, and 85 co-conspirators, including lawyers and banking regulators from the capital of Hanoi, the seat of communist rule.”

        So, she did bribe officials. Probably pissed off the wrong one, though.
