A Gambler's Bluff
Xander, a true crime podcast host, is intrigued with the story of Chia Teck Leng - a finance manager at Asia Pacific Breweries who swindled over $100 million from banks to fuel his gambling addiction. With help from his producer Priya, Xander digs into the case by speaking to key people in Chia's life: his conflicted best friend, a casino agent who enabled his addiction, and the determined inspector who arrested him. Chia ultimately received the highest sentence for a white-collar crime in Singapore's history; a 42-year prison sentence. A Gambler's Bluff is a gripping journey into addiction, ambition, and the price of deception. Was Chia playing the game of his life, or did he simply miscalculate the stakes?
