ReplyDeleteHaving said that, Hosni Mubarak was rushing to hide his assets worth 64 billions within the first 18 days of riot. The authority only ceased his assets 18 days late and now those billions cannot be traced.
Mei Teng, I know..... *sigh*
ReplyDeleteSK, nothing is impossible. You know what? Your wish may come true.
'Obscene' is the word, Ai Shiang.
NY Times has an interesting article. In it, it says,
"Estimates of the Mubaraks’ fortune vary wildly, including a widespread rumor that they are worth as much as $70 billion. United States officials say that figure is vastly exaggerated and put the family’s wealth at $2 billion to $3 billion." and
“The corruption of the Mubarak family was not stealing from the budget, it was transforming political capital into private capital,” said Samer Soliman, a professor of political economy at American University in Cairo." Also,
"Though Swiss banks have begun the search for Mubarak family assets, experts said any money would be returned to Egypt only if its new government formally demanded them."
