AbstractHong Kong property tycoon Lim Por-yen, the chairman of Lai Sun Group, has been accused of giving a total of about $6 million in bribes to several officials of the Taipei County Land Administration Bureau to persuade them to re-zone his property. The ruling Kuomintang (KMT) may be trying to get some political mileage in Taipei County out of the bribery charges, which Lim denies.
