Ma Chi’s wife and children inherited $8.1 million dollars

Posted by temasektimes on August 7, 2012

PRC Ferrari driver Ma Chi who angered the entire nation by his reckless driving which caused the deaths of two innocent parties has left a fortune of S$8.10 million dollars to his family.

According to the Chinese tabloids, Ma Chi’s wife He Tingting will inherit half his fortune while the remaining will be split equally between his two children.

He Tingting has initially announced publicly that the family will not shed its responsibility to the victims, one of whom is a Singaporean cabby Mr Cheng who left behind three children.

However till now, there is no news if the Ma family has taken the necessary remedial actions to compensate the victims of the fatal accident which sparked a massive public backlash against China nationals living in Singapore.

    Why did we abolish estate duty tax before some of these very important people die – such a glory fOr them to have willingly paid estate duty – the last glorious act they would have to do or donate instead – let’s have it back on an urgent basis – not too late – although Ong Teng Cheong etc have passed on onto their greater glories

    At this young age and being able to amass such a huge fortune is amazing. Just wondering what business that he did was so lucrative that he could have literally live for the rest of his life in luxury but unfortunately he had the misfortune of not being able to do so.

    Get your maths and mandarin correct. 810 万 is 8.1 million, not 810 million. Or did you miscalculate and mistranslate to sensationalise the amount?

  13. Caderoc said

    Erm please translate basic Chinese correctly. It is 8.1 Million (810 X 10,000). Getting the facts right would go a long way in helping you become a respectable website.

    Wake up please. Looking at the accompanying tabloid photo, it is $8.1 million, not $810 million. What kind of nonsense sensationalistic reporting is this?

  46. ku_kucu said

    810万 — Eight million one hundred thousand / S$ 810 million — 8 亿 1 千万/

  47. Jason said

    Isnt it suppose to be S$8.1 million. Cause it 100万 = 1M then 810万= 8.1M ?

  52. Felix Tan said

    810 ‘wan’ is $8,100,000, thats 8 mil, not 810 mil.

  53. Tired said

    Please read the Chinese properly. No, I’m not siding with Ma Chi’s actions, but I do think you should report FACTS. Ma Chi left S$8.1 million to his family, NOT S$810 million. Please read the Chinese!

  60. True BLUE Sinkie said

    Hey, where the hell did this young PRC guy get his money from??? Did he buy his PR or citizenship in Singapore??? Or is Singapore a haven for money laundering???

  61. Sangrawi said

    Your article is deliberately deceiving…

    $ 810 万 it’s $ 8.1million and not $ 810 million…

  62. 810 万 is not the same as 810 millions S $…It 8.1 m.Eight millions and one hundred thousand only.

  63. amos said

    It is 8 million not 810 million pls note. But stilll a lot of money

  64. Tick said

    I believe it’s $8.1m, not $810m.

  65. Changoal said

    The numbers in the news translates to 8.1 million dollars actually. 810 million dollars just sounds ridiculous, even for a rich ‘banker’

  66. enough said

    please is it 8 million or 800 millions
    please get your figures right

  67. Three Blind Mice said

    The headlines do not read 810 million dollars leh. 万 is 10,000. So it reads $8.1 million. Still a tidy sum but not that close to a billion.

  68. 8.1 million not 810 million. Bai Wan in Chinese is 1 million

  69. Fish face said

    Aiyohhhh it is 8.1 million lah not 810 million…. Chinese 万 denotes 10.000 not a million…

  70. cow138 said

  75. Tony said

    TT really likes blow-job…the inheritance was 8.1 mil, but TT can report it as 810 mil. Wow, great reporting ethics,,,or we meant none of it!

  76. ANTI FT said

    Let’s just wait & see what Mdm Ting Ting will do to compensate the cabby’s family. Wahaha

  77. Lam said

    Confirmed by Asiaone (PAP), it is $8.1m. Please get the facts right.

  78. Baka Nippon said

    Hello Mr. Editor, 810″wan” in Chinese means 8.1 millions not 810 millions. Please note.

  79. Helena said

    810 wan is $8,100,000 since 1 wan is $10,000

    Ask those PRC ass to get lost lah!

  80. Helena said

    Let’s not blame the editor. I have problems getting the Chinese way of counting wrong before I moved to HK. In English, we don’t use wan so it’s confusing.

  81. Singapuraboi said

    We r talking China where life is cheap. Don’t think they understand the need to compensate for a life. Just kick the entire family out if Singapore

  82. SG dude said

    Sometimes it is good to get out of our ever so slightly western-leaning mindset once in a while

  83. kaypoh said

    No lah, 99% of the $810 mil was put into revolving account Kong Hee style, while $8.1 mil was left 🙂

  84. kaypoh said

    Tingting, me love u long time 🙂

  85. Daft Peasant said

    $8.1 Mill !!!!!

    HUAT AH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  86. Yayrhah said

    any better photos of He Tingting, pretty or not???

  87. Babuseng said

    8.1 million networth also can buy a Ferrari GTO (S$2.5MM?). Either this guy has no concept of saving/investing, or there is much more hidden money not reported.

  88. liveD ,I said

    TT, SDP mouthpiece, anti-SG. Learn your arithmetics.

  89. Sgsiol said
