The ex-president of the Singapore Table Tennis Association (STTA) and former MP Choo Wee Khiang has been charged in court with corruption. Choo was the STTA at the time of the alleged offences.
It is alleged that in 2005, Choo had received S$1,500 from Liu Zhongze, who was then a national team player, and Luo Jie, who was then an assistant coach of the STTA, in return for giving Liu more opportunities to represent the Association in table tennis tournaments. He also received a total of US$600 on two separate occasions from Shi Mei Sheng, who was then a STTA coach, as a reward to Choo for approving the use of two different training facilities in China.
