IPOH (July 5): A property company director has been charged here today with three counts of cheating involving RM300,000.

According to a report by the Malay Mail, Chang Kok Kheong, 60, director of Energiser Properties Sdn Bhd, pled not guilty to cheating Low Chong Ban, 57, of RM100,000 three times “in depositing money for a fake project at the Segi Enclave construction site here”.
