JHO LOW TRAGIC STORY, FROM HERO TO ZERO
The 1 Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal has taken the business world by storm, and the person believed to be the mastermind is Low Taek Jho, known as Jho Low.
The billionaire from Malaysia, Jho Low is still a fugitive. The owner of the real name Low Taek Jho was born in 1982 and has attended prestigious schools in England and the United States (US).
As a billionaire, he is also known for owning dozens of luxury homes in London, Los Angeles, and New York and the owner of the Bombardier Global 5000 private plane for 35 million US dollars.
The source of Jho Low's wealth comes from investments in real estate and films. Jho Low is also known as a billionaire who likes to spend his money.
As quoted from various sources, Jho Low often spends his money on parties and attracts world-class celebrities such as Hollywood artists and world billionaires.
Even Jho Low is known to have been involved in dating Hollywood artists such as Paris Hilton and Miranda Kerr. He even contacted Paris Hilton's manager and frankly asked him out on a date by paying him 100,000 US dollars (Rp 1.5 billion) for one date.
Tired of Paris Hilton, Jho Low then turned to Miranda Kerr. During that time, Low spent a fortune dating Miranda Kerr.
However, after constantly spending money on dating women, Jho Low was faced with serious financial problems. On 21 August 2018, he was officially accused by Malaysian police of embezzling US$4.5 billion from 1MDB.
To note, this case is a mega corruption case in Malaysia that almost made Malaysia on the verge of bankruptcy. He was accused of using the money to spend on personal needs.
Even all the Hollywood stars involved with Jho Low were also investigated. Since then this billionaire is now a fugitive. He was rumored to be in Macau but China denied hiding Low, who is a fugitive from Malaysia.
All of Jho Low's assets were reportedly confiscated. Moreover, he is said to have had plastic surgery to change his appearance, which is hard to find.
Where is Jho Low Today?
It was also reported that he was in Wuhan in February 2020. However, it is not clear whether he fled before the lockdown or if he was also locked in Wuhan during the Covid-19 pandemic.
