“Every time I receive money from the Divisional and District Water Engineers, I will first collect and hand over the money according to the percentage received.' - Former State Water Department Deputy Director Teo Chee Kong.

Teo, the prosecution’s 29th witness, also told Judge Abu Bakar Manat that he handed over a total of RM29,578,843.60 from April 2005 until Feb 2015, also based on the same formula, to predecessor Deputy Director Lim Lam Beng,. Continuing reading his witness statement, he confirmed that he prepared the Head Quarters List table on his own initiative to monitor and make distribution to recipients more easily with the correct amount and that he himself updated the Table.

“Normally, I will collect the money until Awang Tahir’s share reaches approximately RM150,000 to RM300,000 first before handing over to Awang Tahir according to the formula. “Usually, I will send a SMS first to find out where Awang Tahir is and after that, I will go to the place and hand over the money in a courier bag. Teo said Ag Mohd Tahir would usually receive his share at the Sabah State Water Department office and several times at Sutera Harbour Golf Club.
