JB money changer robbed of $1m on the Causeway
A Malaysian money changer on his way to Singapore a few days ago was robbed of more than $1 million in broad daylight, reported China Press on Wednesday.
He had cleared Customs on the Malaysian side at around noon and was then on the Causeway on his motorcycle.
The report said that when he realised he was being tailed by suspicious characters on motorcycles, he sped up towards the Singapore end of the Causeway.
But at least one of the bikers threatened him with a parang. Fearing for his life, he pulled over. He was relieved of the money on him and his motorbike too; the robbers fled back to Malaysia.
