Zahid: Tycoon sold bungalow because he needed cash


KUALA LUMPUR: Housing developer Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew, the founder and chairman of Country Heights Holdings Bhd, needed money urgently and sold two bungalow units at a discounted price of RM5.9mil, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic).

Ahmad Zahid, 69, said Lee offered to sell the bungalows in Country Heights, Kajang, below the market price because he was having trouble paying his income tax.
