CHC Trial – Serina’s husband Kenny Low (16 April 2015) (20 April 2015: MrsLightnFriends)

Serina is the last defendant on the stand to provide more dots for us to form the picture.  Do you selective choose to join the dots?

As of 17 April 2015, there are more than 1000 dots for us to join. I believe there are two groups of people looking at the case. Be it insider [City Harvester or X-City Harvester] or outsider, all may or may not have the same brush stroke. I suggest to you, whatever picture you draw, please keep your tongue from evil.

Let’s see this dot – Serina’s husband, Kenny Low, was Sun’s first dance instructor and he travelled with her in all the gospel outreach concerts as a dancer. (Serina’s EIC of 16 April 2015)

If you can recall in one of Pastor Tan Ye Peng’s cross-examination. Kenny Low was mentioned in the court. This is in relation to the official minutes of the EOGM in August 2010.

In this EOGM, Kenny proposed that it would be good for CHC to be able to put the church resources, to fully support the Crossover Project.

I notice something interesting. The DPP put it to Pastor Tan that Kenny [Serina’s husband] was under the impression that Xtron had had to look for its own financing for the Crossover. Pastor Tan deliberately did not disclose that Xtron and Firna bonds, the Crossover had already been supported by the church’s Building Fund to Kenny.

A brief recap of Pastor Tan’s cross-examination on 14 April 2015
 

DPP: In your answer to Mr Chew’s cross-examination, you [Pastor Tan] said that Kenny is trying to say for the church to fund the Crossover since it’s a mission objective of the church, instead of having Xtron to have to deliver the results and still find financing. So it’s clear that you understood Mr Kenny Low to be under the impression that Xtron was having to find its own financing for the Crossover all this while. Right?

TYP: …. The impression I get was that he was talking about Xtron bearing the risk, because he was not just talking about Xtron; he was also talking about his own experience, he’s managing the City College and he’s also talking about his own difficulty in raising funds to achieve the church’s objective. That means, in other words, shouldering the burden of this project, which is actually a mission project of the church.

DPP read Kenny’s comment “… isn’t that very challenging and a little bit unacceptable? is there a way for us to put our resources, where our money is, where our heart is to look into how we can really support the Crossover…”

DPP: Isn’t it clear from what Kenny says to you at this EOGM that he was under the impression that, all this while, Xtron had to find its own financing for the Crossover?

TYP: Your Honour, … there is a part where he says, “Of course, to a certain extent, we don’t want to subject building funds to risk and all that”.. In other words, the context is that he already know that the church has invested the Building Fund into Xtron for the Crossover. He is more saying that this is the interesting position where if we don’t help Xtron, they have to shoulder the burden for the project, which is a church project, and they still have to go and find funds for themselves…. isn’t this very challenging and a little bit unacceptable for Xtron?”

DPP: Where has he said anything that amounts to saying that he understands that the church, in the past, has already invested the Building Fund into Xtron for the Crossover?

……

TYP: No, your Honour, it is not said anywhere that Kenny knows, but this is a reflection of the EM’s heart, that now that they know that the church has invested in Xtron, they are very supportive. In fact, they feel that it is not right if the church is actually not funding the Crossover Project, when this is a mission project of the church.

DPP: I’m putting it to you, Mr Tan, that it’s clear from what Kenny says that you would have understood and realized that prior to Mr Kong telling him for the first time at this EOGM, Kenny was under the impression that Xtron had been having to look for its own financing for the Crossover all this while.

TYP: No, your Honour, that is not what Kenny is saying.

DPP: …. When you made that response to Kenny, I’m putting it to you that you made it with the awareness that he thought Xtron had been finding its own finances for the Crossover all this while and you deliberately did not disclose that, in fact, with the Xtron and Firna bonds, the Crossover had already been supported by the church’s Building Fund for some time.
