SINGAPORE - For more than a year, an employee at an electronics company accepted bribes totalling $16,355 from staff at a travel firm in exchange for purchasing corporate plane tickets from them.

See Chun Keat, 39, was on Friday sentenced to five months and six weeks' jail. He was also ordered to pay a penalty of $16,355, the amount he received in bribes.

See got to know three employees from Majestic Travel - Bong Fung Sen, Tan Han Ser and Winnie Wong Kai Ning, who worked in the same team at the agency - sometime between 2016 and 2019. Greedy for more money, See told the trio he could submit requests to Furuno for non-existent plane tickets. Deputy Public Prosecutor Janice See said:"The accused could effect this plan as he was entrusted by Furuno to sign-off on and acknowledge payment invoices purchased on behalf of the company."
