[Tracy] He had an entourage.
186
00:11:35,085 --> 00:11:37,827
Everyone was trying to woo him
and be his best friend.
187
00:11:39,873 --> 00:11:43,006
I thought he was, like,
Malaysian royalty...
188

whatever that means.
189
00:11:47,402 --> 00:11:50,187

00:12:02,939 --> 00:12:05,725
[Louise] So, 76B is one
of the Time Warner penthouses
193
00:12:06,290 --> 00:12:09,250
that was purchased in 2011
for 30.5 million.
194
00:12:10,251 --> 00:12:12,644
Right up there,
it's in the tower on the right.
195
00:12:13,863 --> 00:12:15,473
And it's on the left side
of the tower.
196
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,694
It's one of the most lavish
penthouses in the building.
197
00:12:20,304 --> 00:12:23,568
The renters of this unit
used to be Jay-Z and Beyonce.
198
00:12:26,441 --> 00:12:28,443
And we found that
during the shooting
199
00:12:28,617 --> 00:12:33,056
of Wolf of Wall Street,
Leonardo DiCaprio stayed in 76B.
200
00:12:34,362 --> 00:12:36,930
And Joey McFarland spent
a lot of time in the complex.
201
00:12:38,148 --> 00:12:39,759
There were so many loud parties
that there were complaints.
202
00:12:42,370 --> 00:12:45,155
I had a lot of sources
in and around this building.
203
00:12:46,374 --> 00:12:48,898
And I was told
that there was a young
204
00:12:49,072 --> 00:12:53,773
Malaysian man who came
to the showing of this unit.
205
00:12:55,557 --> 00:12:58,299
And he told people
he was buying it
206
00:12:58,473 --> 00:13:00,344
for a group of investors
207
00:13:00,518 --> 00:13:03,608
including the Prime Minister
of Malaysia.
208
00:13:04,566 --> 00:13:06,742
That young man was Jho Low.
209
00:13:09,353 --> 00:13:10,485
Because of that connection,
210
00:13:11,660 --> 00:13:15,011
I knew that this
was a two-headed investigation.
211
00:13:16,273 --> 00:13:18,101
It was an investigation
of Jho Low
212
00:13:18,275 --> 00:13:20,451
and it was an investigation of
the Prime Minister of Malaysia.

-[speaking in Malay]

214
00:13:37,033 --> 00:13:40,515
[Nazir] Najib became
prime minister in 2009.
215
00:13:41,385 --> 00:13:44,214
Obviously, uh, he's my brother.
216
00:13:45,085 --> 00:13:48,392
Uh, we were extremely proud,
um, of his achievement.
217
00:13:50,351 --> 00:13:54,572
Our family has been very much
at the heart of government
218
00:13:54,746 --> 00:13:57,314
in Malaysia since independence.
219
00:13:58,402 --> 00:14:01,014
Our late father became, uh,
the second prime minister
220
00:14:01,536 --> 00:14:02,406
of Malaysia.
221
00:14:05,322 --> 00:14:09,239
We were extremely proud. Uh,
of, uh, what my father achieved.
222
00:14:10,110 --> 00:14:13,026
And we wanted his legacy
223
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,854
to always be remembered
correctly.
224
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,509
Najib took on the mantle.
225
00:14:19,075 --> 00:14:20,860
Uh, and it was exciting
in the early days.
226
00:14:22,426 --> 00:14:23,471

-[in English] I am a gentleman.
-[crowd cheering]
228
00:14:29,477 --> 00:14:31,174
[Tom] Najib is, uh, is a very
interesting character.
229
00:14:31,783 --> 00:14:33,307
He had very modern ideas
for Malaysia
230
00:14:33,481 --> 00:14:34,438
when he took power.
231
00:14:35,787 --> 00:14:37,224
He promoted himself
232
00:14:37,398 --> 00:14:39,661
as a moderate Muslim leader
in the world,
233
00:14:40,531 --> 00:14:41,968
as a friend to America.
234
00:14:42,403 --> 00:14:44,927
So, on that level, very modern.
235
00:14:46,363 --> 00:14:50,106
But having starting out as
a supposedly reformist figure,
236
00:14:51,064 --> 00:14:52,587
he ends up becoming
237
00:14:52,761 --> 00:14:54,284
a more and more
authoritarian leader.
238

00:15:16,524 --> 00:15:18,308
and the election commission.
244
00:15:21,311 --> 00:15:24,924
And we have been governed
by the same political party
245
00:15:25,098 --> 00:15:26,229
since independence.
246
00:15:27,013 --> 00:15:29,363
One party
for more than 60 years.
247
00:15:31,365 --> 00:15:35,499
This is a very undemocratic
system of process.
248
00:15:40,026 --> 00:15:42,811
The prime minister and the wife
of the prime minister,
249
00:15:42,985 --> 00:15:44,508
they are very,
very funny character.
250
00:15:45,988 --> 00:15:47,381
They give an idea every day.
251
00:15:48,077 --> 00:15:50,166
But in Malaysia
there are two individual
252
00:15:50,340 --> 00:15:51,559
who cannot be drawn to cartoon.
253
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,389
One is the wife
of the prime minister...
254
00:15:57,391 --> 00:15:59,959
and the second one
is the prophet Muhammad.
255
00:16:01,134 --> 00:16:03,049
That mean she is now
on same level
256
00:16:03,223 --> 00:16:04,137
of prophet Muhammad.
257
00:16:11,622 --> 00:16:14,756
Because of my cartoons,
I'm facing nine charges.
258
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,413
Which, uh, carry a maximum...
259
00:16:20,631 --> 00:16:23,895
penalty for 43 years
in prison, yeah.
260
00:16:36,256 --> 00:16:38,084
[dramatic music playing]
261
00:16:42,044 --> 00:16:43,524
[Louise] When I arrived
in Malaysia,
262
00:16:44,481 --> 00:16:45,830
my luggage was lost.
263
00:16:48,833 --> 00:16:52,533
And when my luggage showed up, it was all ruffled through.
264
00:16:54,796 --> 00:16:58,974
I was sensitive not to contact
a lot of people before I went
265
00:16:59,540 --> 00:17:01,281
because you know,
you don't know
266
00:17:01,455 --> 00:17:03,500
whose communications
are tapped and so on.
267
00:17:07,330 --> 00:17:10,812
And I went to Georgetown
in Penang.
268
00:17:14,381 --> 00:17:17,471
And I met with Malaysians
who knew Jho Low
269
00:17:17,645 --> 00:17:19,560
and his family
when he was growing up.
270
00:17:22,824 --> 00:17:24,478
[dramatic music playing]
271
00:17:28,264 --> 00:17:29,309
[car horn blaring]
272
00:17:58,381 --> 00:18:01,123
[Louise] I found out
that the Low Family
273
00:18:01,297 --> 00:18:05,475
is a wealthy
but not extraordinarily
274
00:18:05,910 --> 00:18:07,564
rich family, originally.
275
00:18:09,610 --> 00:18:13,092
They became much richer
through Jho's activities.
276
00:18:14,528 --> 00:18:16,356
They had their ups and downs,
he had falling-outs
277
00:18:16,530 --> 00:18:18,532
with business partners,
there was a renovation
278
00:18:18,706 --> 00:18:21,796
on their home there
that ended up in a lawsuit
279
00:18:21,970 --> 00:18:23,363
over unpaid bills.
280
00:18:25,060 --> 00:18:26,931
Larry had split off
from his company
281
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:29,760
and, um, it was a bit
of a depressed affluence,
282
00:18:30,544 --> 00:18:33,851
and Jho really became
the Low Family's...
283
00:18:35,331 --> 00:18:37,116
hope for the future
when he went off to Harrow.
284
00:18:40,728 --> 00:18:42,643
[indistinct singing]
285
00:18:44,340 --> 00:18:46,777
[man] The old schools change
little through the years.
286
00:18:46,951 --> 00:18:49,171
Old customs die hard
within their walls.
287
00:18:50,216 --> 00:18:52,522
There is still strolls
in the wind on Harrow Hill.
288
00:18:53,393 --> 00:18:54,872
[Tom] I think the big sort of
transformative moment
289
00:18:55,046 --> 00:18:57,266
for Jho Low is when
his parents decided to send him
290
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,052
to Harrow Boarding School
in the UK in the late '90s...
291
00:19:02,358 --> 00:19:05,013
because he suddenly went
from this, you know,
292
00:19:05,187 --> 00:19:07,798
really backwater
Malaysian island to...
293
00:19:08,930 --> 00:19:11,150
the-- the school
where Winston Churchill
294
00:19:11,324 --> 00:19:13,282
-and others had studied.
-[indistinct singing]
295
00:19:13,456 --> 00:19:15,371
[man] Since the granting
of the school's charter,
296
00:19:15,545 --> 00:19:17,068
seven of Britain's
prime ministers
297
00:19:17,243 --> 00:19:18,157
have been educated here.
298
00:19:19,767 --> 00:19:21,638
Sir Winston Churchill
frequently revisited Harrow
299
00:19:21,812 --> 00:19:24,032
as one of his
most distinguished old boys.
300
00:19:25,381 --> 00:19:27,078
[Tom] So, Jho Low
then suddenly, you know,
301
00:19:27,253 --> 00:19:30,604
studying alongside
the King of Jordan's son,
302
00:19:30,778 --> 00:19:33,911
the children of royalty
and Arab businessmen's kids,
303
00:19:34,085 --> 00:19:35,739
and these people were
a lot wealthier than he was.
304
00:19:37,524 --> 00:19:39,656
And I think that really
gave him an eye
305
00:19:39,830 --> 00:19:41,354
onto a different world
of wealth...
306
00:19:43,051 --> 00:19:45,271
and is probably pretty crucial
in his, sort of,
307
00:19:45,445 --> 00:19:46,359
psychological development.
308
00:19:46,533 --> 00:19:48,709
-Hooray!
-[man] Hip, hip.
309
00:19:48,883 --> 00:19:50,493
-Hooray!
-[Louise] In fact...
310
00:19:52,103 --> 00:19:54,454
Jho became really good friends with Riza in London.
311
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:59,589
And he also got to know
Riza's mother Rosmah.
312
00:20:01,417 --> 00:20:03,158
And Rosmah was
the wife of Najib.
313
00:20:05,769 --> 00:20:07,815
Riza Aziz was the stepson
of the Prime Minister
314
00:20:07,989 --> 00:20:08,598
of Malaysia.
315
00:20:10,339 --> 00:20:11,384
And friends with them all...
316
00:20:13,299 --> 00:20:14,169
was Jho Low.
317
00:20:18,260 --> 00:20:20,610
[suspenseful music playing]
318
00:20:31,186 --> 00:20:32,970
[Louise] In September 2014,
319
00:20:33,710 --> 00:20:36,322
I wanted to see if Jho and Najib
would meet up in New York.
320
00:20:37,627 --> 00:20:39,629
They were both in town
during the United Nations
321
00:20:39,803 --> 00:20:40,761
General Assembly.
322
00:20:43,111 --> 00:20:45,156
My colleague, Stephanie Saul
and I staked out
323
00:20:45,331 --> 00:20:46,462
the Time Warner Center.
324
00:20:50,858 --> 00:20:52,773
Stephanie stood outside
and would tell me
325
00:20:52,947 --> 00:20:54,122
when anyone was coming up.
326
00:20:57,168 --> 00:20:59,083
And I was upstairs
in the lobby
327

First, she texted me.
330
00:21:13,184 --> 00:21:15,274
I stood at the ready
at the elevator, out he came.
331
00:21:22,629 --> 00:21:24,500
He walked over
and sat in the bar.
332
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:29,853
A little while later
she texted...
333
00:21:32,987 --> 00:21:34,554
Again I was at the ready
at the elevator.
334
00:21:34,728 --> 00:21:36,077
[suspenseful music playing]
335
00:21:47,436 --> 00:21:49,395
Najib walked around
to the entrance
336
00:21:49,569 --> 00:21:50,700
to the hotel rooms.
337
00:21:52,485 --> 00:21:54,356
It was not more than
two minutes,
338
00:21:54,530 --> 00:21:56,053
Jho stood up from the bar...
339
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:59,666
walked over
and followed Najib
340
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:00,928
up into the rooms.
341
00:22:05,236 --> 00:22:08,501
I asked Joe and Najib's
representatives about this,
342
00:22:08,675 --> 00:22:10,590
they confirmed, they had been
up there meeting.
343
00:22:11,330 --> 00:22:13,506
They said it was a short
social gathering,
344
00:22:13,897 --> 00:22:14,898
end of story.
345
00:22:16,291 --> 00:22:18,598
But you know, a lot
was going on right then
346
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:21,775
in the story of 1MDB
and this money trail,
347
00:22:21,949 --> 00:22:25,039
and I do wonder what they were
talking about up there.

00:22:31,698 --> 00:22:33,526
as the prime minister
of Malaysia,
350
00:22:33,700 --> 00:22:36,180
he came up with this idea
to set up
351
00:22:36,355 --> 00:22:39,793
an investment fund
called 1MDB.
352
00:22:45,625 --> 00:22:47,627
The trust fund
that brings returns
353
00:22:48,062 --> 00:22:49,368
for the future of the people.
354
00:22:52,196 --> 00:22:54,808
And every cent of debt
355
00:22:55,417 --> 00:22:57,027
came from Malaysian taxpayers.
356
00:23:01,641 --> 00:23:04,818
When I found out
that 1MDB invested
357
00:23:04,992 --> 00:23:06,210
one billion US dollars
358
00:23:07,342 --> 00:23:10,084
in a company
called PetroSaudi...
359
00:23:11,868 --> 00:23:14,741
the first thing you do
is you check
360
00:23:14,915 --> 00:23:16,395
who PetroSaudi is.
361
00:23:17,396 --> 00:23:20,964
It is a fantastic name,
petroleum at a point in time
362
00:23:21,138 --> 00:23:22,836
a hundred and ten US dollars
per barrel.
363
00:23:23,445 --> 00:23:25,229
Saudi Arabia,
the king of petroleum.
364
00:23:25,404 --> 00:23:27,536
This has to
be a jackpot company.
365
00:23:30,104 --> 00:23:32,367
Then when you do a search
on PetroSaudi,
366
00:23:33,281 --> 00:23:36,110
you realize that the founder,
Tarek Obaid,
367
00:23:36,893 --> 00:23:39,940
there was no reference
of him in Google,
368
00:23:40,331 --> 00:23:42,682
any time before 2009.
369
00:23:44,945 --> 00:23:47,164
And I discovered
that he was only 32 years old.
370
00:23:49,428 --> 00:23:52,648
It was then that we found out
that when 1MBD
371
00:23:52,822 --> 00:23:55,608
actually invested
one billion in PetroSaudi,
372
00:23:55,782 --> 00:23:57,827
PetroSaudi was barely
a year old.
373
00:23:59,655 --> 00:24:01,527
So, all those...
374
00:24:03,093 --> 00:24:07,750
uh, little facts put together
rang huge alarm bells
375
00:24:08,664 --> 00:24:11,450
that there's something fishy
with this investment.
376
00:24:13,190 --> 00:24:15,192
And that's when I raised
my first question
377
00:24:15,366 --> 00:24:17,456
in March, 2010, in parliament.
378
00:24:19,109 --> 00:24:20,546
Who guarantees this loan?
379
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,069
They said, "PetroSaudi
guarantees the loan."
380
00:24:22,548 --> 00:24:23,897
On a corporate guarantee.
381
00:24:24,288 --> 00:24:26,116
What is the paid-up capital?
382
00:24:26,290 --> 00:24:28,510
How much money do they have?
What is their financial reserve?
383
00:24:28,684 --> 00:24:30,381
Can you show us
the statements such that
384
00:24:30,556 --> 00:24:33,472
they can actually guarantee
a one-billion-US-dollar loan?
385
00:24:34,211 --> 00:24:35,125
Confidential.
386
00:24:42,698 --> 00:24:44,091
[Nazir] I had always asked
question,
387
00:24:44,961 --> 00:24:48,182
why was 1MDB,
388
00:24:48,356 --> 00:24:50,576
uh, not subject
to the same oversight
389
00:24:51,446 --> 00:24:53,056
uh, as the rest
of the government companies?
390
00:24:56,233 --> 00:24:59,889
So, uh, I then got hold
of, uh, my other brothers,
391
00:25:00,629 --> 00:25:03,023
uh, and we met Najib
and told him
392
00:25:03,197 --> 00:25:04,677
uh, that look, you know,
393
00:25:04,851 --> 00:25:07,506
um, we are very concerned,
uh, about this.
394
00:25:09,159 --> 00:25:11,945
And how that
somewhat conflicted,
395
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,296
uh, with the kind of values
that our father had.
396
00:25:19,082 --> 00:25:20,040
Public service,
397
00:25:20,562 --> 00:25:22,782
uh, integrity, frugality.
398
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,960
Najib said he would look
into the matter
399
00:25:27,917 --> 00:25:32,052
and that he would fix
any shortcomings at 1MDB.
400
00:25:38,406 --> 00:25:42,845
[Louise] It came to my attentio
1MDB have raised bonds,
401
00:25:43,890 --> 00:25:47,023
public debt with Goldman Sachs.
402
00:25:51,767 --> 00:25:54,814
Debt that the people
of Malaysia
403
00:25:54,988 --> 00:25:56,642
would have to pay back.
404
00:25:56,816 --> 00:25:59,209
Goldman Sachs
was being paid huge amounts.
405
00:25:59,949 --> 00:26:03,039
And anyone who's making
atypically huge fees,
406
00:26:03,823 --> 00:26:05,868
you have to ask why.
407
00:26:07,827 --> 00:26:09,002
[computer keys clacking]
408
00:26:32,460 --> 00:26:33,809
I thought, I can't wait to meet
409
00:26:33,983 --> 00:26:35,289
with this person
and we did meet.
410
00:26:36,638 --> 00:26:40,076
And I got a lot of information about how close
411
00:26:40,990 --> 00:26:42,949
Jho Low
was to these transactions.
412
00:26:45,995 --> 00:26:48,432
Jho Low popped up
on everything.
413
00:26:50,086 --> 00:26:52,915
And he's secretly getting
consulting fees from 1MDB.
414
00:26:54,438 --> 00:26:56,876
He's in the VIP area
atThe Wolf of Wall Street
415
00:26:57,050 --> 00:26:59,095
after-party, and he's thanked
in the credits.
416
00:27:01,184 --> 00:27:03,317
Jho and Riza passing money
between them,
417
00:27:03,491 --> 00:27:05,014
behind shell companies
and real estate.
418
00:27:06,668 --> 00:27:09,149
And so,
the very tight connection
419
00:27:09,845 --> 00:27:13,066
between Jho Low and the Prime Minister's family
420
00:27:13,762 --> 00:27:15,416
and the Malaysian
people's money
421
00:27:15,938 --> 00:27:17,374
was becoming very clear.
422
00:27:18,332 --> 00:27:19,681
They were each pieces
in a puzzle
423
00:27:19,855 --> 00:27:20,987
and I put this
whole puzzle together.
424
00:27:32,694 --> 00:27:34,261
[Nazir] I read
the New York Timesarticle.
425
00:27:35,697 --> 00:27:38,700
I was shocked, but also
extremely embarrassed.
426
00:27:40,441 --> 00:27:41,616
I didn't know Jho Low.
427
00:27:42,269 --> 00:27:43,749
I think I shook his hand
a couple of times
428
00:27:43,923 --> 00:27:44,967
but I didn't know him.
429
00:27:46,316 --> 00:27:49,145
Um, but the idea
that he was in some way linked
430
00:27:49,798 --> 00:27:51,452
uh, to my-- to my brother,
431
00:27:51,626 --> 00:27:55,108
uh, and potentially spending
432
00:27:55,282 --> 00:27:57,806
uh, Malaysian taxpayers' money
really disgusted me.
433
00:28:04,291 --> 00:28:06,467
[Louise] I knew that
there were documents...
434
00:28:07,816 --> 00:28:08,687
that...
435
00:28:09,905 --> 00:28:11,777
were available,
that were for sale.
436
00:28:12,473 --> 00:28:14,736
That purported to show...
437
00:28:15,911 --> 00:28:19,219
details of money moving
between 1MDB and Jho Low.
438
00:28:20,524 --> 00:28:21,700
Leaked documents.
439
00:28:22,962 --> 00:28:24,311
Those were the smoking gun.
440
00:28:31,231 --> 00:28:33,712
[Tony] This is a time
of journalism,
441
00:28:33,886 --> 00:28:36,149
of different parties
working together
442
00:28:36,758 --> 00:28:39,587
around the world
to uncover this massive,
443
00:28:39,761 --> 00:28:41,110
-massive scandal.
-[indistinct chatter]
444
00:28:45,506 --> 00:28:47,813
The work done
by The New York Times
445
00:28:48,857 --> 00:28:50,946
online whistle blower
Sarawak Report,
446
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,385
and of course in Malaysia,
you have the Edgepublications
447
00:28:55,559 --> 00:28:57,257
who got into trouble
with the authorities.
448
00:28:58,824 --> 00:29:00,347
[Ho] We will not apologize
because we've not done
449
00:29:00,521 --> 00:29:02,001
anything wrong. Okay?
450
00:29:02,958 --> 00:29:04,612
We stand by everything
we have published.
451
00:29:05,091 --> 00:29:06,440
And I would like to add
one thing.
452
00:29:07,267 --> 00:29:09,008
None of the article
we have published
453
00:29:09,182 --> 00:29:10,226
has been challenged.
454
00:29:13,316 --> 00:29:16,363
[Tom] The Sarawak Report
came out with this bombshell
455
00:29:16,537 --> 00:29:18,408
in February of 2015.
456
00:29:19,192 --> 00:29:22,412
Seven hundred million dollars
had been taken
457
00:29:22,586 --> 00:29:26,025
from the fund under the guise
of being sent to a joint venture
458
00:29:26,199 --> 00:29:28,114
with a Saudi Arabian
oil company.
459
00:29:33,206 --> 00:29:35,469
[Tony] When Sarawak Report
first published
460
00:29:36,252 --> 00:29:39,995
the joint venture agreement
between 1MDB and PetroSaudi,
461
00:29:40,909 --> 00:29:42,389
it was explosive.
462
00:29:44,478 --> 00:29:47,437
That was the first time
we got a peek
463
00:29:48,221 --> 00:29:51,528
into the hidden operations
within 1MDB
464
00:29:52,094 --> 00:29:54,880
on how they were scamming
465
00:29:55,054 --> 00:29:56,490
the money
from the Malaysian people.
466
00:29:58,579 --> 00:29:59,493
It was depressing.
467
00:30:00,581 --> 00:30:02,539
Uh, people were angry.
468
00:30:06,413 --> 00:30:09,024
[Tom] The document showed
that 700 million dollars
469
00:30:09,198 --> 00:30:11,418
had ended up in, uh,
in an offshore company
470
00:30:12,462 --> 00:30:13,899
allegedly controlled by Jho Low.
471
00:30:16,249 --> 00:30:19,165
For the record,
do you have any involvement
472
00:30:19,339 --> 00:30:21,341
or have you had
any involvement
473
00:30:21,515 --> 00:30:23,386
with 1Malaysia Development
Berhad?
474
00:30:24,518 --> 00:30:26,302
[Jho] I believe that this is
a politically,
475
00:30:26,476 --> 00:30:28,435
sort of, charged effort
and to try and...
476
00:30:29,392 --> 00:30:30,872
put the blame on me when, truly,
477
00:30:31,046 --> 00:30:32,613
I have no
decision-making authority.
478
00:30:34,397 --> 00:30:36,443
[reporter] Why would you
be a political target
479
00:30:36,617 --> 00:30:38,575
in this unfolding scandal?
480
00:30:41,796 --> 00:30:45,191
[Jho] Um, I think it's-- it's because it may have stemmed
481
00:30:45,365 --> 00:30:47,933
from my 16-year friendship
with Riza Aziz
482
00:30:48,107 --> 00:30:49,021
who's, of course, the...
483
00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:51,545
stepson of the Malaysian
prime minister.
484
00:30:53,112 --> 00:30:55,418
Um, and I feel like
I'm just an easy target
485
00:30:55,592 --> 00:30:58,291
and a victim because--
Perhaps, because of my age
486
00:30:58,465 --> 00:31:02,599
and unfortunately from the things that I've done
487
00:31:02,773 --> 00:31:06,342
in my early years of-- of partying that, you know,
488
00:31:06,516 --> 00:31:07,866
I had a bit too much fun then.
489
00:31:09,084 --> 00:31:10,346
[suspenseful music playing]
490
00:31:16,309 --> 00:31:19,051
[Robin] The Jho Low
birthday party was a spectacle
491
00:31:19,225 --> 00:31:20,922
in-- in every sense.
492
00:31:21,967 --> 00:31:25,535
They had hired at least 250
493
00:31:25,709 --> 00:31:28,669
of the most gorgeous-looking
models
494
00:31:29,757 --> 00:31:32,760
from all over America
to be cocktail waitresses
495
00:31:32,934 --> 00:31:34,414
for this party.
496
00:31:34,588 --> 00:31:37,199
And they were all
identically dressed in-- in red.
497
00:31:37,373 --> 00:31:40,376
They made a stunning
visual impact.
498
00:31:41,769 --> 00:31:43,249
And all of them
were walking around
499
00:31:43,423 --> 00:31:45,686
with-- with magnums of Cristal.
500
00:31:47,818 --> 00:31:50,821
I remember standing
at the bar with Britney Spears
501
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,042
as she was waiting her turn to
go on to sing "Happy Birthday".
502
00:31:55,478 --> 00:31:58,351
And then Jamie Foxx
walks on to be the MC.
503
00:31:59,569 --> 00:32:00,919
And now you're paying attention.
504
00:32:03,312 --> 00:32:04,923
You're saying
this is no ordinary party.
505
00:32:06,794 --> 00:32:07,969
This was now big money.
506
00:32:10,102 --> 00:32:12,234
I was introduced to Jho Low
507
00:32:13,105 --> 00:32:17,196
and he was a super-rich
playboy billionaire.
508
00:32:17,370 --> 00:32:20,155
Holding court around Jho Low
509
00:32:20,590 --> 00:32:22,201
were security people.
510
00:32:22,897 --> 00:32:25,465
It-- it's like a wedding cake
if you can imagine.
511
00:32:25,639 --> 00:32:28,207
Mr. Malaysian money bags
was at the very top
512
00:32:28,381 --> 00:32:31,253
and then there were these tiers
that came down
513
00:32:31,427 --> 00:32:34,517
and you were either in tier one
or tier two or tier three.
514
00:32:36,258 --> 00:32:41,307
Paris Hilton who was ushered
right into the intimate circle.
515
00:32:42,699 --> 00:32:45,528
There was this huge
turnout of celebrities.
516
00:32:47,269 --> 00:32:51,317
Including DiCaprio.
The list is endless.
517
00:32:51,491 --> 00:32:53,710
You could run
a movie credit scroll
518
00:32:53,884 --> 00:32:55,712
on the screen of all the people
that were there.
519
00:32:56,104 --> 00:32:57,192
[suspenseful music playing]
520
00:33:06,854 --> 00:33:09,291
This was the, uh, entrance
to the party.
521
00:33:13,730 --> 00:33:16,255
I went back to look at it
the next day,
522
00:33:16,864 --> 00:33:18,344
and it was like
it never ever happened.
523
00:33:18,953 --> 00:33:19,606
It had gone.
524
00:33:20,868 --> 00:33:24,306
It didn't exist
three days beforehand.
525
00:33:25,351 --> 00:33:27,614
It didn't exist 24 hours
afterwards.
526
00:33:29,746 --> 00:33:31,487
I mean,
it was a proper circus tent...
527
00:33:32,575 --> 00:33:34,490
with a giant Ferris wheel
inside.
528
00:33:37,841 --> 00:33:40,540
I don't think I would be wrong
if I described it
529
00:33:40,714 --> 00:33:44,848
as the best
and the most expensive party
530
00:33:45,023 --> 00:33:46,546
that Las Vegas has ever seen.
531
00:33:49,244 --> 00:33:51,768
To do what they did,
a Ferris wheel,
532
00:33:52,639 --> 00:33:56,382
amusement games, an arcade,
security...
533
00:33:57,383 --> 00:33:59,559
the food, the drinks,
the gifts...
534
00:34:00,342 --> 00:34:02,518
the stars, the celebrities...
535
00:34:05,043 --> 00:34:07,480
that must've cost
a hundred million dollars.
536
00:34:14,052 --> 00:34:16,489
In the end none of it
had really made sense
537
00:34:18,230 --> 00:34:21,233
if somebody is spending
that kind of money...
538
00:34:22,190 --> 00:34:23,235
uh, that freely.
539
00:34:24,540 --> 00:34:27,108
It cannot have come
from legitimate sources.
540
00:34:33,636 --> 00:34:35,638
[man] How do we define value?
541
00:34:37,336 --> 00:34:39,686
[Tom] We interviewed Jho Low
in the Journalin 2014.
542
00:34:40,382 --> 00:34:42,123
And we wrote a story
about him as an investor.
543
00:34:44,343 --> 00:34:47,346
It is about how each deal
changes a community,
544
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,087
a country, and the world.
545
00:34:49,870 --> 00:34:51,915
[Tom] There's this video
that Jho Low creates
546
00:34:52,612 --> 00:34:54,788
as an attempt to portray himself
as a--
547
00:34:55,658 --> 00:34:57,834
as a jet-setting
corporate titan.
548
00:34:58,879 --> 00:35:01,055
[Jho] Our approach
is to fundamentally question
549
00:35:01,229 --> 00:35:03,057
how quality is created.
550
00:35:04,928 --> 00:35:07,583
How to enhance value,
identify synergies...
551
00:35:08,584 --> 00:35:09,890
capitalize...
552
00:35:10,064 --> 00:35:11,979
And the back story
that he gave people
553
00:35:12,153 --> 00:35:14,808
was that his family
had a lot of money.
554
00:35:15,548 --> 00:35:17,071
And he was investing money
on behalf of his grandfather
555
00:35:17,245 --> 00:35:18,551
and his father who had made,
you know,
556
00:35:18,725 --> 00:35:20,857
billions in iron ore mining
in Thailand.
557
00:35:22,163 --> 00:35:24,470
But as soon as people
put real resources
558
00:35:24,644 --> 00:35:27,125
into trying to find out
about his grandfather...
559
00:35:28,561 --> 00:35:30,998
you only need to trust
a few people in Malaysia
560
00:35:31,172 --> 00:35:33,000
and you realize
he didn't have billions.
561
00:35:34,219 --> 00:35:35,350
At least not--
He didn't inherit billions.
562
00:35:37,004 --> 00:35:39,572
Then started to donate a lot
of money to cancer centers,
563
00:35:39,746 --> 00:35:40,964
to the United Nations...
564
00:35:42,401 --> 00:35:45,012
and I think that, again,
was an attempt to make it appear
565
00:35:45,186 --> 00:35:46,753
that he was this real
businessman.
566
00:35:48,276 --> 00:35:50,757
So, the questions about
where his money came from
567
00:35:50,931 --> 00:35:51,888
he hoped would go away.
568
00:35:54,021 --> 00:35:57,024
But we kept digging
and in summer of 2015
569
00:35:57,198 --> 00:35:59,113
came out
with this much bigger story.
570
00:36:01,637 --> 00:36:03,465
[Bradley] The Wall Street
Journalcame into possession
571
00:36:03,639 --> 00:36:07,426
of secret documents
that revealed
572
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,820
a very large payment
of about 681 million dollars
573
00:36:11,865 --> 00:36:13,867
paid into the--
the personal bank account
574
00:36:14,041 --> 00:36:15,651
of the Prime Minister
of Malaysia.
575
00:36:16,783 --> 00:36:18,219
And that was a-- a big fact.
576
00:36:19,438 --> 00:36:21,179
And it was a mystery
that needed to be solved.
577
00:36:25,095 --> 00:36:26,923
And then we came
into possession
578
00:36:27,097 --> 00:36:30,231
of these factory messenger
transcripts between Jho Low
579
00:36:30,405 --> 00:36:33,321
and one of the mid-level bankers
that oversaw
580
00:36:33,495 --> 00:36:34,409
the Prime Minister's accounts.
581
00:36:36,411 --> 00:36:38,761
One of these descriptions
refers to...
582
00:36:41,373 --> 00:36:44,724
"681 American pies"
about to come
583
00:36:44,898 --> 00:36:46,073
into the Prime Minister's
bank account.
584
00:36:47,509 --> 00:36:50,817
The bank records show
681 million American dollars
585
00:36:50,991 --> 00:36:51,557
are transferred in.
586
00:36:52,732 --> 00:36:54,777
In this case,
the "American pie" means
587
00:36:54,951 --> 00:36:57,258
one million dollars.
So, that was the code word.
588
00:36:58,085 --> 00:36:59,782
Until that point
we hadn't really connected
589
00:36:59,956 --> 00:37:01,654
Jho Low to the transfer
of the Prime Minister.
590
00:37:03,917 --> 00:37:07,529
It showed that he was there
stage-managing these discussions
591
00:37:07,703 --> 00:37:08,835
and setting things up.
592
00:37:10,184 --> 00:37:12,099
And it has really proved
his instrumental role
593
00:37:12,273 --> 00:37:13,013
in the case.
594
00:37:24,111 --> 00:37:25,982
[Tom] He's asking bankers
at AmBank,
595
00:37:26,156 --> 00:37:28,246
the--a bank that he used
and the prime minister used
596
00:37:28,942 --> 00:37:31,336
to do things
so compliance cannot see.
597
00:37:35,818 --> 00:37:37,516
And he's asking, you know,
598
00:37:37,690 --> 00:37:39,213
"Please move this money here,
that money there."
599
00:37:40,388 --> 00:37:41,911
He'd just tell them
Najib wants this.
600
00:37:42,738 --> 00:37:45,088
And he's very impatient,
he's very distracted.
601
00:37:55,577 --> 00:37:57,231
I'd say from reading
the Blackberry messages
602
00:37:57,405 --> 00:37:59,233
the general impression
I get is that Jho Low
603
00:37:59,407 --> 00:38:01,148
uh, is cutting a lot of corners.
604
00:38:07,067 --> 00:38:08,547
I was very excited.
605
00:38:08,721 --> 00:38:10,984
Because, you know,
being a journalist for 20 years,
606
00:38:11,158 --> 00:38:13,900
it's not everyday that
you get, um, a story
607
00:38:15,162 --> 00:38:17,469
about a sitting prime minister
receiving stolen funds.
608
00:38:18,557 --> 00:38:20,298
We wanted to make sure
that we upheld
609
00:38:20,472 --> 00:38:21,995
very high standards
in reporting it.
610
00:38:22,169 --> 00:38:23,431
And we're obviously
getting pushed back
611
00:38:23,605 --> 00:38:24,911
from the Prime Minister's office
612
00:38:25,085 --> 00:38:26,565
saying, well, you know,
this is not true.
613
00:38:27,914 --> 00:38:29,611
So, it's very nervous
to make sure that we were...
614
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:31,396
reporting it...
615
00:38:32,919 --> 00:38:34,355
you know, everything
was a hundred percent correct.
616
00:38:34,529 --> 00:38:35,704
You can't mistakes on--
on these kinds of stories.
617
00:38:39,752 --> 00:38:42,972
[Nazir] And I happen
to be on holiday, uh, in LA,
618
00:38:43,146 --> 00:38:45,627
and over breakfast I picked up
the Wall Street Journal.
619
00:38:45,801 --> 00:38:47,412
Uh, and I was stunned.
620
00:38:48,978 --> 00:38:51,285
[woman] Well, a shocking
development and allegations
621
00:38:51,459 --> 00:38:53,505
for the first time
directly linking
622
00:38:53,679 --> 00:38:55,898
the Prime Minister
to the 1MDB scandal.
623
00:38:56,899 --> 00:39:00,076
Six hundred and eighty-one
million US dollars.
624
00:39:00,860 --> 00:39:02,514
Yeah. I was--
I-- I fell off my chair,
625
00:39:03,166 --> 00:39:03,993
uh, to be honest.
626
00:39:05,430 --> 00:39:08,563
This was now becoming
an international story.
627
00:39:08,737 --> 00:39:11,261
That was a magnitude
of what was happening.
628
00:39:11,436 --> 00:39:13,046
[man]
Prime Minister, you look happy.
629
00:39:13,220 --> 00:39:15,178
Can I ask you, sir,
why you haven't resigned
630
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:18,356
over personal involvement
in the corruption scandal
631
00:39:18,530 --> 00:39:19,966
of global proportion, sir?
632
00:39:20,662 --> 00:39:21,968
Are you going to resign,
Prime Minister?
633
00:39:23,012 --> 00:39:25,667
[crowd cheering]
634
00:39:26,364 --> 00:39:28,322
[chanting in Malay]
635
00:39:29,802 --> 00:39:32,413
[Tom] The 681 million dollars
that Najib allegedly received
636
00:39:32,587 --> 00:39:33,501
into his accounts
637
00:39:34,763 --> 00:39:36,809
came two months
before a really important
638
00:39:36,983 --> 00:39:39,942
-general election in 2013.
-[indistinct chatter]
639
00:39:42,858 --> 00:39:48,386
It certainly looked like 1MDB
had been a political slush fund,
640
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:49,996
in a way
that he could spend money
641
00:39:50,475 --> 00:39:51,519
and get reelected.
642
00:39:56,219 --> 00:39:57,307
[Ambiga]
I remember what happened
643
00:39:57,482 --> 00:39:58,831
during the '13 general election
644
00:39:59,005 --> 00:40:00,441
and we were wondering
where all this money
645
00:40:00,615 --> 00:40:01,573
was coming from
646
00:40:03,226 --> 00:40:06,360
that was being poured into,
uh, various constituencies.
647
00:40:08,623 --> 00:40:11,626
There was money being, uh,
given away.
648
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,847
Uh, there's vote buying in--
in many respects.
649
00:40:15,021 --> 00:40:16,457
[indistinct chatter]
650
00:40:19,460 --> 00:40:24,639
[Ambiga] 1MDB is people's money,
which is why it's very irksome
651
00:40:25,423 --> 00:40:27,468
that they would use
the people's money
652
00:40:27,990 --> 00:40:29,688
to ensure their own victory.
653
00:40:30,645 --> 00:40:31,429
[thunder rumbling]
654
00:40:36,216 --> 00:40:37,957
[Nazir] It's very, very hard
to describe.
655
00:40:39,045 --> 00:40:42,091
Uh, Najib is my brother.
He will always be my brother.
656
00:40:42,265 --> 00:40:43,092
And I love him as my brother.
657
00:40:45,225 --> 00:40:48,489
We are close-knit family,
but it seemed to me that...
658
00:40:49,925 --> 00:40:52,972
his promise that he would look
into it, uh, and make sure
659
00:40:53,146 --> 00:40:56,584
there was no impropriety, uh,
at 1MDB
660
00:40:57,063 --> 00:40:58,847
uh, was not happening.
661
00:41:00,066 --> 00:41:03,809
What I then decided to do
was to campaign,
662
00:41:03,983 --> 00:41:07,203
uh, to get various
influential people
663
00:41:07,900 --> 00:41:12,078
uh, to also, um, look into.
uh, 1MDB.
664
00:41:13,383 --> 00:41:15,995
I went to see politicians
on both sides
665
00:41:16,169 --> 00:41:18,954
and really urged everyone
to make sure
666
00:41:19,128 --> 00:41:21,348
that
this is properly investigated,
667
00:41:21,522 --> 00:41:23,002
uh, and the rule of law applies.
668
00:41:26,527 --> 00:41:29,356
[Tom] In the summer of 2015
the central bank,
669
00:41:29,791 --> 00:41:31,619
the attorney general,
670
00:41:31,793 --> 00:41:35,014
the anti-corruption commission
were trying to investigate 1MDB
671
00:41:35,188 --> 00:41:36,929
and find out
what had been going on.
672
00:41:38,365 --> 00:41:40,149
[man] As police raided
the offices
673
00:41:40,323 --> 00:41:44,110
of Malaysian state investment
fund 1MDB on Wednesday,
674
00:41:44,284 --> 00:41:46,373
members of the prime
minister's political party
675
00:41:46,547 --> 00:41:48,506
appeared to be closing ranks
behind him.
676
00:41:49,376 --> 00:41:51,465
The Wall Street Journal's
alleging investigators
677
00:41:51,639 --> 00:41:55,295
have found fund transfers
almost 700 million dollars
678
00:41:55,469 --> 00:41:57,253
to Najib Razak's
own bank account.
679
00:41:57,427 --> 00:41:59,255
-[indistinct chatter]
-[Tom] What we believed happened
680
00:41:59,429 --> 00:42:00,909
is that the attorney general
681
00:42:01,736 --> 00:42:04,217
was preparing a draft
arrest warrant for Najib.
682
00:42:05,566 --> 00:42:08,917
And, um, as the document
was being prepared
683
00:42:09,875 --> 00:42:11,398
the prime minister
decided to remove
684
00:42:11,572 --> 00:42:14,401
the attorney general
who was investigating 1MDB.
685
00:42:17,622 --> 00:42:19,058
[Nazir]
Suddenly, there was a clampdown
686
00:42:19,841 --> 00:42:21,713
on, uh, 1MDB investigations.
687
00:42:25,412 --> 00:42:28,850
The Edgeeditor
was held overnight.
688
00:42:29,938 --> 00:42:32,898
Uh, The Edgewas suspended for,
uh, I think a few weeks.
689
00:42:34,508 --> 00:42:36,728
Um, and at that time, um,
690
00:42:36,902 --> 00:42:39,078
I began to also fear
for my safety.
691
00:42:40,775 --> 00:42:42,211
[clouds rumbling]
692
00:42:47,521 --> 00:42:50,829

00:42:54,354 --> 00:42:56,008
[man] Protests on the streets
of Kuala Lumpur
694
00:42:56,182 --> 00:42:57,792
go into a second day.
695
00:42:59,664 --> 00:43:01,927
[woman] These protesters
are directing their anger
696
00:43:02,101 --> 00:43:04,886
at one man,
Prime Minister Najib Razak.
697
00:43:05,931 --> 00:43:08,673
[Maria] You cannot allow
a prime minister
698
00:43:09,630 --> 00:43:13,460
and his cabinet to continue
to plunder a country
699
00:43:13,634 --> 00:43:17,507
just because they want
to live in luxury.
700
00:43:20,206 --> 00:43:22,077
[crowd chanting in Malay]
701
00:43:24,514 --> 00:43:27,779
[Maria] This scandal
will affect our basic services.
702
00:43:28,649 --> 00:43:31,086
Cutbacks in the health services,
Cutbacks in education.
703
00:43:32,218 --> 00:43:34,742
Cutback in terms of the quality
of our transport.
704
00:43:35,482 --> 00:43:37,963
The cutback is a result
of the corruption.
705
00:43:39,442 --> 00:43:40,661
You know, these people
706
00:43:40,835 --> 00:43:42,097
who are supposed
to be our leaders
707
00:43:42,620 --> 00:43:43,969
just do not care.
708
00:43:45,448 --> 00:43:48,364
Whereas, the rest
of the population
709
00:43:48,538 --> 00:43:51,237
are more concerned
with whether they can actually
710
00:43:51,411 --> 00:43:52,630
put food on their table.
711
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:56,372
We urge all Malaysians
712
00:43:57,156 --> 00:43:59,375
to demand for Najib
to step down.
713
00:44:00,550 --> 00:44:04,293
And the institutional reforms
to be implemented to end
714
00:44:05,425 --> 00:44:07,514
all the corruptions that
is happening in this country.
715
00:44:10,169 --> 00:44:13,912
The prime minister
must tender his resignation.

[indistinct chatter]
721
00:46:08,896 --> 00:46:10,985
[woman] Well, there is a report
that production company
722
00:46:11,159 --> 00:46:14,597
Red Granite has been accused
of using 100 million dollars
723
00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:18,079
that had been diverted
from the 1MDB fund
724
00:46:18,253 --> 00:46:20,299
to finance
The Wolf of Wall Street.
725
00:46:23,432 --> 00:46:25,957
[Alex] I think even
before anyone knew anything
726
00:46:26,131 --> 00:46:28,524
about the connections
to Malaysia
727
00:46:28,698 --> 00:46:31,963
before any of the dots really
had been joined between 1MDB,
728
00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:34,487
people were wondering where
the hell they got that money.
729
00:46:40,623 --> 00:46:42,147
Yes, this is Alex
from The Hollywood Reporter.
730
00:46:42,321 --> 00:46:43,191
How are you doing?
731
00:46:44,714 --> 00:46:46,934
So yes, well, I wanted to speak
to you about, um,
732
00:46:47,108 --> 00:46:48,631
about the company Red Granite...
733
00:46:49,284 --> 00:46:50,720
Well, I had been trying to speak
to anyone
734
00:46:50,895 --> 00:46:52,287
involved in Red Granite.
735
00:46:52,461 --> 00:46:53,636
We wrote a story
about Red Granite
736
00:46:53,811 --> 00:46:55,334
that was published,
um, yesterday.
737
00:46:55,508 --> 00:46:58,206
Obviously these-- there's, um,
a growing investigation
738
00:46:58,380 --> 00:46:59,294
into the company.
739
00:47:01,035 --> 00:47:02,907
Former employees,
anyone that's dealt with them
740
00:47:03,081 --> 00:47:04,343
from other films.
741
00:47:05,431 --> 00:47:07,563
And they all have a lot
of things to say
742
00:47:07,737 --> 00:47:10,131
and they're all absolutely
fascinating,
743
00:47:10,479 --> 00:47:11,959
but I can't say any of them
744
00:47:12,133 --> 00:47:13,743
because no one
will go on record.
745
00:47:13,918 --> 00:47:16,355
The amounts of money that
are being talked about are vast.
746
00:47:17,356 --> 00:47:18,618
Two hundred and thirty,
two hundred and forty million
747
00:47:18,792 --> 00:47:19,619
ended up
with Red Granite.
748
00:47:21,229 --> 00:47:23,231
Hollywood is actually
quite a small place
749
00:47:23,405 --> 00:47:24,754
I mean, everyone knows everyone.
750
00:47:26,104 --> 00:47:27,583
You know, you don't want
to really be the whistle blower,
751
00:47:27,757 --> 00:47:29,455
you don't want your name
out there as the person
752
00:47:29,629 --> 00:47:30,760
that talks about stuff.
753
00:47:32,023 --> 00:47:33,589
DiCaprio,
from what we understand
754
00:47:33,763 --> 00:47:35,026
hasn't said anything.
755
00:47:36,549 --> 00:47:37,811
Obviously, he earned potentially
upwards of 25 million
756
00:47:37,985 --> 00:47:39,813
from--
from The Wolf of Wall Street.
757
00:47:40,727 --> 00:47:41,859
You know, if you want
to continue to function
758
00:47:42,772 --> 00:47:46,037
in the industry, probably best
to-- to keep your mouth shut.
759
00:47:46,211 --> 00:47:47,386
I mean,
did you have any direct dealings
760
00:47:47,734 --> 00:47:48,822
with Riza and Jho Low?
761
00:47:50,084 --> 00:47:51,520
[phone ringing]
762
00:47:52,913 --> 00:47:54,349
Can we go on the record
with that?
763
00:47:54,741 --> 00:47:55,960
[man]
764
00:48:00,225 --> 00:48:02,401
But Leonardo DiCaprio
and Martin Scorsese
765
00:48:02,575 --> 00:48:04,620
are the biggest filmmakers
on the planet.
766
00:48:07,275 --> 00:48:10,061
They make award-winning,
Oscar-winning films.
767
00:48:10,713 --> 00:48:12,280
People love them.
768
00:48:12,454 --> 00:48:16,197
How long before they say,
"We didn't know."?
769
00:48:16,371 --> 00:48:18,939
Or, "Oh, God, this is terrible.
770
00:48:19,113 --> 00:48:20,636
We should never
have done this."
771
00:48:21,768 --> 00:48:23,335
They're going to have to say
something at some point,
772
00:48:23,509 --> 00:48:24,336
like public figures.
773
00:48:35,347 --> 00:48:36,914
[indistinct chatter]
774
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,353
[Patrick] So, we're gonna get
the opposition figures
775
00:48:41,527 --> 00:48:44,095
of Malaysia,
and get their reaction.
776
00:48:45,052 --> 00:48:46,184
[ringing]
777
00:48:49,709 --> 00:48:51,189
Hello there.
778
00:48:51,363 --> 00:48:52,930
[Patrick] Thank you so much
for talking to us.
779
00:48:53,104 --> 00:48:54,235
Um, this is Patrick
from The Hollywood Reporter.
780
00:48:55,802 --> 00:48:57,325
-Can you hear me?
-[Patrick] Yup, I can.
781
00:48:57,673 --> 00:48:58,761
Yes, okay.
782
00:49:00,328 --> 00:49:01,851
[Patrick] So, we're at
the Cannes Film Festival here.
783
00:49:02,678 --> 00:49:04,419
-And--
-[Tony]
784
00:49:04,985 --> 00:49:07,031
[chuckles]
You should come next year.

-[stammers]
-[Tony]
786
00:49:11,644 --> 00:49:13,559
Oh, okay. I imagine
you're very busy.
787
00:49:13,994 --> 00:49:15,604
Um-- No?
788
00:49:18,346 --> 00:49:19,608
Oh, I see.
789
00:49:21,784 --> 00:49:23,395
Wow. What is the backstory
to that?
790
00:49:35,015 --> 00:49:35,842
Wow.
791
00:49:38,627 --> 00:49:39,541
So, um...
792
00:49:42,066 --> 00:49:45,634
Wolf of Wall Street,um,
for the people in Malaysia
793
00:49:45,808 --> 00:49:46,940
who have seen the film,
794
00:49:48,420 --> 00:49:49,334
do you think they have
a bitter feeling about it?
795
00:50:24,325 --> 00:50:25,413
[suspenseful music playing]
796
00:50:38,818 --> 00:50:40,341
Well, good morning all.
797
00:50:41,081 --> 00:50:42,735
Good morning, and thank you all
for being here.
798
00:50:43,605 --> 00:50:45,868
And we are here to announce
a significant step
799
00:50:46,043 --> 00:50:49,046
in our ongoing work
to combat global corruption.
800
00:50:50,873 --> 00:50:52,701
And today,
the department of justice
801
00:50:52,875 --> 00:50:54,312
has filed a civil complaint.
802
00:50:55,487 --> 00:50:56,749
And our complaint alleges
803
00:50:57,619 --> 00:51:00,361
that from 2009 through 2015,
804
00:51:01,275 --> 00:51:03,843
these officials
and their associates conspired
805
00:51:04,017 --> 00:51:06,976
to misappropriate
and launder billions of dollars
806
00:51:07,455 --> 00:51:08,587
from 1MDB.
807
00:51:10,328 --> 00:51:12,417
The co-conspirators laundered
their stolen funds
808
00:51:13,287 --> 00:51:16,116
through a complex web
of opaque transactions
809
00:51:16,290 --> 00:51:19,337
and fraudulent shell companies with bank accounts in countries
810
00:51:19,511 --> 00:51:21,034
around the world.
811
00:51:21,817 --> 00:51:24,081
1MDB was created
by the Malaysian government
812
00:51:24,255 --> 00:51:26,431
to promote
economic development
813
00:51:26,605 --> 00:51:28,389
with the ultimate goal
of improving
814
00:51:28,563 --> 00:51:30,957
the well-being
of the Malaysian people.
815
00:51:32,219 --> 00:51:34,047
But, unfortunately, sadly, tragically,
816
00:51:34,874 --> 00:51:37,094
a number of corrupt
1MDB officials
817
00:51:38,051 --> 00:51:41,315
treated this public trust
as a personal bank account.
818
00:51:42,403 --> 00:51:43,883
-[indistinct chatter]
-[woman]
819
00:51:48,192 --> 00:51:49,715
No, no, no. Hang on first.
820
00:51:49,889 --> 00:51:51,630
Uh, we have to...
821
00:51:52,718 --> 00:51:54,589
um, establish...
822
00:51:55,634 --> 00:51:58,941
uh, the facts for this, yeah?
And this is a civil action.
823
00:51:59,942 --> 00:52:01,857
This is not a criminal action.
824
00:52:02,031 --> 00:52:06,210
But, uh, I want, uh, to see it,
categorically,
825
00:52:07,515 --> 00:52:10,779
uh, that, uh, we are serious
about good governance.
826
00:52:11,389 --> 00:52:13,130
-[woman] All right. Thank you.
-Thank you.
827
00:52:13,304 --> 00:52:14,870
[man] ...Najib Razak
said the government
828
00:52:15,349 --> 00:52:16,959
will give its full cooperation
829
00:52:17,134 --> 00:52:19,397
to international parties
investigating issues
830
00:52:19,571 --> 00:52:20,833
surrounding 1MDB.
831
00:52:27,274 --> 00:52:29,407
[Alex] The Wolf of Wall Street
earned just shy
832
00:52:29,581 --> 00:52:31,974
of 400 million dollars
internationally.
833
00:52:32,758 --> 00:52:34,760
But the idea of a film
of that magnitude
834
00:52:35,891 --> 00:52:39,895
being seized, and then owned
by the US government,
835
00:52:40,069 --> 00:52:42,985
was not anything
I've ever heard of before.
836
00:52:44,813 --> 00:52:47,120
The Hollywood angle,
it's because it was such
837
00:52:47,686 --> 00:52:50,341
a growing story,
and it was all unraveling,
838
00:52:51,429 --> 00:52:53,866
it was something that requires
a little bit more investigating.
839
00:52:57,565 --> 00:53:00,655
So last night, um,
I was given a new update.
840
00:53:01,787 --> 00:53:03,397
Jho Low, the man
at the center of this--
841
00:53:03,571 --> 00:53:06,052
of the whole, uh,
1MDB scandal,
842
00:53:07,445 --> 00:53:09,708
Jho Low bought
a 31-million dollar penthouse,
843
00:53:10,622 --> 00:53:12,928
uh, in the Time Warner building
in New York.
844
00:53:14,408 --> 00:53:15,714
The real estate agent
representing the seller...
845
00:53:17,281 --> 00:53:18,717
was Robert De Niro's son.
846
00:53:19,631 --> 00:53:21,198
-No way.
-Raphael De Niro.
847
00:53:22,460 --> 00:53:24,375
And Robert De Niro met
848
00:53:24,549 --> 00:53:27,421
with the Malaysian
prime minister and his wife
849
00:53:28,814 --> 00:53:32,861
in 2000-- and, uh, 2009
and 2010, I believe.
850
00:53:33,427 --> 00:53:35,342
And they're--
At first in New York
851
00:53:36,169 --> 00:53:38,171
and, um, and then he went
over to Malaysia...
852
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,653
and had lunch
with Rosmah Mansor,
853
00:53:41,827 --> 00:53:43,045
the prime minister's wife.
854
00:53:43,959 --> 00:53:44,960
[Patrick]
We should check that out.
855
00:53:47,659 --> 00:53:48,747
[woman]
856
00:53:49,791 --> 00:53:51,097
-[Alex] Hello?
-[indistinct]
857
00:53:51,271 --> 00:53:52,707
-Hey. Mr. DeNiro...
-[DeNiro]
858
00:53:52,881 --> 00:53:54,187
...very nice to speak to you.
859
00:53:55,101 --> 00:53:57,146
I wanted to talk to you
about this, um,
860
00:53:57,973 --> 00:53:59,845
you know, this Malaysian
corruption scandal.
861
00:54:00,759 --> 00:54:01,934
[Alex]
862
00:54:08,593 --> 00:54:10,464
[DeNiro]
863
00:54:20,082 --> 00:54:21,083
[Alex] Riza. Yeah.
864
00:54:21,258 --> 00:54:23,782
[DeNiro]
865
00:54:23,956 --> 00:54:24,870
[Alex] Okay.
866
00:54:29,831 --> 00:54:30,789
[DeNiro]
867
00:54:30,963 --> 00:54:32,138
[Alex] Okay. Where was that?
868
00:54:32,312 --> 00:54:33,487
[DeNiro]
869
00:54:38,666 --> 00:54:39,363
[Alex] Okay.
870
00:54:44,019 --> 00:54:44,890
[DeNiro]
871
00:54:45,586 --> 00:54:46,848
[Alex]
872
00:54:48,459 --> 00:54:49,460
[DeNiro]
873
00:54:55,944 --> 00:54:58,033
[Alex]
874
00:55:05,824 --> 00:55:08,130
[DeNiro]
875
00:55:17,183 --> 00:55:17,923
[Alex] I'm sorry.
876
00:55:19,228 --> 00:55:20,578
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
877
00:55:20,752 --> 00:55:22,319
I didn't actually meant
to annoy you, I'm--
878
00:55:34,635 --> 00:55:36,768
[Alex] One thing
that I found fascinating
879
00:55:36,942 --> 00:55:39,205
is that when I speak
to the biggest names
880
00:55:39,379 --> 00:55:40,554
in Hollywood,
881
00:55:40,728 --> 00:55:42,730
I just don't think
people are aware.
882
00:55:43,992 --> 00:55:45,603
Then no one actually
then they go,
883
00:55:45,777 --> 00:55:47,474
"Oh, God, yeah, we heard
about that scandal maybe."
884
00:55:47,648 --> 00:55:49,650
But then they don't turn
and look at
885
00:55:49,824 --> 00:55:52,000
its actual effects
in the country
886
00:55:52,174 --> 00:55:53,262
that it's hurt the most.
887
00:55:53,437 --> 00:55:56,788
[dramatic music playing]
888
00:56:04,143 --> 00:56:07,059
[Anis] The story,
it opened my eyes,
889
00:56:07,929 --> 00:56:10,845
as it goes international
and so embarrassing.
890
00:56:12,543 --> 00:56:14,240
It also hit me hard.
891
00:56:15,372 --> 00:56:16,938
Small country like Malaysia
892
00:56:17,112 --> 00:56:20,072
now known
because of global corruption.
893
00:56:22,466 --> 00:56:26,252
It drive my eagerness to know
and explore more
894
00:56:26,426 --> 00:56:28,559
about Malaysia's
political landscape.
895
00:56:30,778 --> 00:56:33,346
[speaking Malay]
896
00:56:56,891 --> 00:56:57,718
Yeah.
897
00:57:00,199 --> 00:57:02,854
All of the questions of 1MDB
898
00:57:03,028 --> 00:57:05,552
have been left
unanswered until now.
899
00:57:07,075 --> 00:57:10,252
I don't understand
why the prime minister acts
900
00:57:11,210 --> 00:57:13,038
as if nothing happened.
901
00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:16,302
[suspenseful music playing]
902
00:57:31,099 --> 00:57:33,711
[Zunar] I started a magazine
called Gedung Kartun.
903
00:57:35,887 --> 00:57:39,238
It is hundred percent political,
uh, cartoon,
904
00:57:39,412 --> 00:57:42,720
where we talk about issues
like, uh, corruption.
905
00:57:43,677 --> 00:57:46,332
But the government banned
the magazine immediately.
906
00:57:47,594 --> 00:57:49,944
Then the eight officers
came to my office
907
00:57:50,989 --> 00:57:54,732
confiscated that
more than 500 copies
908
00:57:54,906 --> 00:57:57,299
of the magazine,
and banned the magazine.
909
00:57:58,692 --> 00:58:00,651
During the interrogation,
I told them...
910
00:58:02,130 --> 00:58:04,393
"Look, you can ban my books,
you can ban my cartoon,
911
00:58:04,785 --> 00:58:06,004
but you cannot ban my mind.
912
00:58:07,179 --> 00:58:09,529
I will keep drawing
until the last drop of my ink."
913
00:58:15,361 --> 00:58:18,190
But after the 1MDB scandal
in Malaysia,
914
00:58:18,886 --> 00:58:21,106
I'm not sure whether
I'm the one who going to
915
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:22,411
end up in prison...
916
00:58:23,630 --> 00:58:25,850
or the prime minister
and the wife.
917
00:58:28,722 --> 00:58:30,419
I'm lucky to have her, actually.
918
00:58:32,552 --> 00:58:34,728
She's very cartoonable.
[chuckles]
919
00:58:37,339 --> 00:58:41,430
She carry a lot of handbags
and also ring, and shoes.
920
00:58:42,475 --> 00:58:44,956
People call her
Imelda Marcos of Malaysia,
921
00:58:45,130 --> 00:58:48,481
or Imelda Rosmah.
Uh, you know, she like to shop.
922
00:58:50,918 --> 00:58:52,703
[Tom] Najib had a credit card,
923
00:58:52,877 --> 00:58:56,663
and he'd spent 130,000 dollars
in a Chanel store in Honolulu.
924
00:58:59,144 --> 00:59:00,841
And we knew
from the documents we had
925
00:59:01,015 --> 00:59:03,191
that this credit card
was being funded,
926
00:59:03,365 --> 00:59:05,237
um, by 1MDB money.
927
00:59:07,239 --> 00:59:09,981
When they were in the Chanel
and trying to make a purchase,
928
00:59:10,764 --> 00:59:12,200
there was some problem
with the credit card...
929
00:59:14,159 --> 00:59:16,727
and Najib communicated
with Jho to let him know that,
930
00:59:16,901 --> 00:59:18,163
via Blackberry messages.
931
00:59:19,512 --> 00:59:21,079
Because Jho was running
Najib's accounts.
932
00:59:26,693 --> 00:59:29,827
[Tony] But what has triggered
this new wave of interest
933
00:59:31,219 --> 00:59:33,134
for the ordinary Malaysians,
especially in the villages...
934
00:59:34,483 --> 00:59:37,486
is the fact that the money
from 1MDB...
935
00:59:38,749 --> 00:59:40,707
Twenty-seven million dollars
of it
936
00:59:40,881 --> 00:59:43,536
was actually used
to buy a diamond necklace
937
00:59:44,276 --> 00:59:45,886
-for the prime minister's wife.
-[birds chirping]
938
01:00:05,776 --> 01:00:08,169
With 1MDB money,
he bought a diamond,
939
01:00:08,343 --> 01:00:10,868
twenty-two carat.
Twenty-seven million US dollars
940
01:00:11,477 --> 01:00:12,913
for the wife
of the prime minister.
941
01:00:14,088 --> 01:00:16,438
You know,
it's 120 million ringgit
942
01:00:17,048 --> 01:00:17,918
for the diamond.
943
01:00:20,660 --> 01:00:24,055
And, uh, average teacher
gets paid 3,000 ringgit a month.
944
01:00:28,059 --> 01:00:30,757
And that's, uh,
twelve months a year.
945
01:00:32,367 --> 01:00:36,197
That's 3,333 teachers
you can finance
946
01:00:36,981 --> 01:00:40,549
with that one diamond
for an entire year.
947
01:00:41,159 --> 01:00:43,161
That's a lot of teachers.
[chuckles]
948
01:00:45,990 --> 01:00:49,646
That has aroused the degree
of, um, anger.
949
01:00:51,299 --> 01:00:53,562
Uh, Malaysians are,
by and large,
950
01:00:54,259 --> 01:00:58,089
desensitized to corruption,
um, but the scale of it,
951
01:00:59,177 --> 01:01:00,918
I think, is waking people up.
952
01:01:01,092 --> 01:01:03,442
[dramatic music playing]
953
01:01:11,102 --> 01:01:13,234
[Anis speaking Malay]
954
01:01:15,933 --> 01:01:17,325
[both speaking Malay]
955
01:02:00,542 --> 01:02:02,196
[Andrew] The Malaysian people
were defrauded
956
01:02:02,370 --> 01:02:04,024
on an enormous scale.
957
01:02:06,113 --> 01:02:08,768
This is the largest
autocracy seizure
958
01:02:08,942 --> 01:02:10,552
in US history.
959
01:02:11,989 --> 01:02:13,294
That was alleged
in the complaint,
960
01:02:13,468 --> 01:02:15,427
funds were stolen
under the pretense
961
01:02:15,601 --> 01:02:17,081
of having 1MDB
962
01:02:17,734 --> 01:02:20,084
invested in oil exploration
joint venture
963
01:02:20,649 --> 01:02:21,999
with a foreign partner.
964
01:02:23,478 --> 01:02:26,568
But this wasn't a legitimate
investment, for 1MDB
965
01:02:26,743 --> 01:02:28,179
or for the Malaysian people.
966
01:02:29,006 --> 01:02:31,182
Instead, the funds transferred
to the Shell companies
967
01:02:31,356 --> 01:02:33,575
were used
for the personal enrichment
968
01:02:33,750 --> 01:02:36,230
of the corrupt officials
and their associates.
969
01:02:36,883 --> 01:02:38,450
-[suspenseful music playing]
-[crowd cheering]
970
01:02:38,624 --> 01:02:39,538
Obviously...
971
01:03:07,609 --> 01:03:10,090
[rapping]
972
01:03:20,448 --> 01:03:21,928
[Paris] This is fuckin' nuts.
973
01:03:25,714 --> 01:03:27,238
[Andrew] They used the money
to pay gambling debts
974
01:03:27,412 --> 01:03:28,587
at Las Vegas casinos.
975
01:03:32,417 --> 01:03:33,984
They rented luxury yachts.
976
01:03:35,376 --> 01:03:38,379
Among the purchases
was a bombardier jet
977
01:03:38,553 --> 01:03:40,947
with a purchase price
of about 35 million dollars.
978
01:03:45,865 --> 01:03:48,128
The US Justice Department
is looking to seize
979
01:03:48,302 --> 01:03:51,392
540 million US dollars
in assets
980
01:03:51,566 --> 01:03:54,743
bought with money stolen
from Malaysian state fund, 1MDB.
981
01:03:55,832 --> 01:03:57,659
[Andrew] Among the assets, uh, jewelry,
982
01:03:57,834 --> 01:04:00,314
worth millions of dollars,
gifted to model Miranda Kerr.
983
01:04:00,967 --> 01:04:03,143
And artworks
by Picasso and Basquiat,
984
01:04:03,796 --> 01:04:05,754
gifts to actor,
Leonardo DiCaprio.
985
01:04:07,278 --> 01:04:09,671
Jho Low has allegedly embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars
986
01:04:10,542 --> 01:04:13,240
from 1MDB to support
a luxurious lifestyle,
987
01:04:13,414 --> 01:04:15,199
and buy such extravagant gifts.
988
01:04:16,374 --> 01:04:18,550
A spokesperson for DiCaprio said,
989
01:04:18,724 --> 01:04:21,509
"He will support all efforts to assure that justice is done."
990
01:04:24,034 --> 01:04:25,818
[man] They spent
millions on properties,
991
01:04:25,992 --> 01:04:28,212
some of which are subject
to seizure and forfeiture,
992
01:04:28,821 --> 01:04:30,562
based on the complaint
filed today.
993
01:04:38,570 --> 01:04:42,530
[GPS] Arriving at 1423 Oriole Drive on the left.
994
01:04:46,404 --> 01:04:47,535
[Alex] Here we go.
995
01:04:48,580 --> 01:04:51,017
This is the mansion
that Jho Low
996
01:04:51,191 --> 01:04:53,019
bought for himself
as a little treat
997
01:04:53,585 --> 01:04:57,284
in, uh, 2012
for about 39 million dollars.
998
01:04:58,459 --> 01:05:00,026
It's mentioned in, uh,
justice department rulings
999
01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,159
as, uh, one of the mansions
that he, uh,
1000
01:05:02,333 --> 01:05:04,291
that he bought with allegedly
stolen Malaysian money.
1001
01:05:06,293 --> 01:05:09,166
Um, it's quite
a vast palace of a house.
1002
01:05:10,341 --> 01:05:11,777
Just around the corner
from his good friend,
1003
01:05:11,951 --> 01:05:13,083
Leonardo DiCaprio.
1004
01:05:15,999 --> 01:05:17,826
Did he ever actually live in it?
I mean, was it ever--
1005
01:05:18,001 --> 01:05:19,437
[Kevin] He never--
he moved furniture into it,
1006
01:05:19,611 --> 01:05:21,004
there's furniture
in there now.
1007
01:05:21,178 --> 01:05:22,440
-[Alex] Really?
-[Kevin] But no, he had a big
1008
01:05:22,614 --> 01:05:23,963
Oscar party
when he first bought it
1009
01:05:24,137 --> 01:05:25,486
because some of the neighbors
went,
1010
01:05:25,660 --> 01:05:27,010
-and told me they were up there.
-[Alex] Right.
1011
01:05:27,967 --> 01:05:29,012
Looked around,
thought it was great.
1012
01:05:29,186 --> 01:05:30,361
-[Alex] Yeah.
-Yeah.
1013
01:05:30,535 --> 01:05:31,884
They got to rub elbows
with Leo,
1014
01:05:32,058 --> 01:05:32,841
-and his other neighbors. And--
-[chuckles]
1015
01:05:33,625 --> 01:05:34,669
You haven't never seen him,
have you?
1016
01:05:35,496 --> 01:05:37,020
No. Nobody's seen him
in two years, apparently.
1017
01:05:37,194 --> 01:05:39,022
-Yeah.
-[both laugh]
1018
01:05:39,848 --> 01:05:41,154
That's--
why, you looking for him?
1019
01:05:41,328 --> 01:05:42,503
-Yeah, yeah. Well--
-Yeah. You should.
1020
01:05:43,069 --> 01:05:44,984
Go ask Leo. I'm sure he knows.
1021
01:05:45,158 --> 01:05:46,812
He's probably hiding
in Leo's basement.
1022
01:05:46,986 --> 01:05:48,727
[both laugh]
1023
01:05:52,905 --> 01:05:54,080
It's a bit cobwebby as well.
1024
01:05:54,254 --> 01:05:55,212
Nothing living there
for a while.
1025
01:05:56,778 --> 01:05:57,562
Looks a bit quiet.
1026
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:02,001
There's no one in.
1027
01:06:06,049 --> 01:06:07,964
[intense music playing]
1028
01:06:11,402 --> 01:06:12,490
[indistinct chatter]
1029
01:06:18,365 --> 01:06:20,019
[Tom] We don't have full
visibility on what
1030
01:06:20,193 --> 01:06:21,020
Jho Low's doing right now.
1031
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,155
And he's certainly, sort of,
gone under the radar.
1032
01:06:30,290 --> 01:06:31,900
We have the number
of this guy, right,
1033
01:06:32,075 --> 01:06:35,382
who probably was there,
so I'm gonna--
1034
01:06:35,556 --> 01:06:37,471
I'm gonna call him.
I'm just trying to, like,
1035
01:06:37,645 --> 01:06:39,256
work out when to do it
because I don't wanna--
1036
01:06:40,735 --> 01:06:42,694
I mean he could--
you know what I mean?
1037
01:06:42,868 --> 01:06:44,870
There's a certain amount of risk
associated with it, right?
1038
01:06:49,396 --> 01:06:52,095
I'm just gonna try to find,
um, equanimity.
1039
01:06:53,444 --> 01:06:55,924
The boat is believed
to be owned by Jho Low
1040
01:06:56,099 --> 01:06:57,230
through an offshore company.
1041
01:06:59,624 --> 01:07:01,147
Now we know that this boat
was over at the marina,
1042
01:07:01,321 --> 01:07:02,148
but it's left.
1043
01:07:06,544 --> 01:07:07,501
[man]
1044
01:07:07,675 --> 01:07:09,460
[Louise] You-- where is Jho Low?
1045
01:07:09,634 --> 01:07:11,853
I don't know where Jho Low is.
Do you know where Jho Low is?
1046
01:07:12,028 --> 01:07:13,420
[man]
1047
01:07:14,769 --> 01:07:16,597
Well, do you have any
information about where he is?
1048
01:07:20,340 --> 01:07:21,254
[keys clacking]
1049
01:07:25,476 --> 01:07:26,694
Uh-huh. Why is that?
1050
01:07:38,793 --> 01:07:40,926
Right. So, you think
the government of Malaysia
1051
01:07:41,100 --> 01:07:42,362
is hiding Jho Low?
1052
01:07:49,630 --> 01:07:50,327
No. I understand.
1053
01:07:57,377 --> 01:07:59,727
[Alex] The local guys told us
that the Equanimity,
1054
01:07:59,901 --> 01:08:00,815
Jho Low's boat, is out there.
1055
01:08:02,339 --> 01:08:03,992
If you look over there,
I guess that's Yama Point
1056
01:08:04,167 --> 01:08:07,257
and it's, uh, a kilometer or two
off of that, uh, out at sea.
1057
01:08:08,171 --> 01:08:09,607
So you can't see it so easily
from the mainland
1058
01:08:09,781 --> 01:08:12,914
and I guess the headland here
is all forested,
1059
01:08:13,089 --> 01:08:15,569
so it's pretty secluded spot
they've got out there.
1060
01:08:15,743 --> 01:08:16,875
So, we think it's sort of...
1061
01:08:17,571 --> 01:08:19,312
trying to sort of hide
in plain sight,
1062
01:08:19,486 --> 01:08:20,792
so that no one
really knows what's going on.
1063
01:08:24,012 --> 01:08:25,536
Uh, a bunch of skiffs
have been going out
1064
01:08:25,710 --> 01:08:27,668
and, uh, a captain came
from the boat,
1065
01:08:27,842 --> 01:08:28,713
uh, yesterday,
1066
01:08:30,149 --> 01:08:30,845
and they've been taking
provisions out there.
1067
01:08:33,544 --> 01:08:34,719
I'm no yacht expert,
1068
01:08:34,893 --> 01:08:36,460
but it's certainly
a super yacht,
1069
01:08:36,634 --> 01:08:38,679
and it has a launch pad
for a helicopter, multi decks,
1070
01:08:39,332 --> 01:08:40,768
I think it's, like, 180 feet.
1071
01:08:41,421 --> 01:08:43,031
And I think it has a crew
of 30 people,
1072
01:08:43,945 --> 01:08:45,556
so it's definitely a yacht
you would notice.
1073
01:08:47,732 --> 01:08:49,037
[indistinct chatter]
1074
01:08:54,391 --> 01:08:56,175
[Alex] Yeah. We saw the boat
off of the pier
1075
01:08:56,349 --> 01:08:57,524
east of Phuket.
1076
01:08:59,265 --> 01:09:02,660
It was anchored offshore,
and then, all of a sudden,
1077
01:09:02,834 --> 01:09:04,575
around 10:00 pm
in the evening,
1078
01:09:05,532 --> 01:09:08,013
starts setting off to the south at a rate of knots
1079
01:09:08,187 --> 01:09:09,797
and takes off
into the open sea.
1080
01:09:15,803 --> 01:09:17,457
This is, uh, marine tracking,
1081
01:09:17,631 --> 01:09:20,460
you see all the boats, uh,
moving around in real time,
1082
01:09:21,287 --> 01:09:23,071
and, uh, it looks like
the boat's gone...
1083
01:09:24,290 --> 01:09:26,858
around the southern tip
of Phuket, and...
1084
01:09:28,033 --> 01:09:29,948
was doing 12 knots which is,
you know,
1085
01:09:30,427 --> 01:09:31,428
fairly fast speed.
1086
01:09:32,603 --> 01:09:34,953
And then, here,
it's, uh, stopped,
1087
01:09:35,127 --> 01:09:36,694
and that's 21 hours ago.
1088
01:09:36,868 --> 01:09:39,697
So, I imagine they've turned off
their identification.
1089
01:09:40,785 --> 01:09:42,439
-Uh, it's gone.
-[indistinct chatter]
1090

[Anis] We, as the young
generation,
1091
01:09:54,494 --> 01:09:56,540
have to do something,
rise up.

[indistinct chatter]
1102
01:11:02,649 --> 01:11:05,130
[Anis] I saw the violence
with my own eyes.
1103
01:11:09,526 --> 01:11:11,484
So, I know the risk.
1104
01:11:18,535 --> 01:11:20,885
Two days before the rally...
1105
01:11:23,191 --> 01:11:24,541
I feel insecure.
1106
01:11:29,154 --> 01:11:32,897
I realize that someone
keep following me.
1107
01:11:39,991 --> 01:11:43,560
When I organizing
student meeting,
1108
01:11:44,169 --> 01:11:47,607
they keep, uh,
company at the back.
1109
01:11:50,088 --> 01:11:54,048
I hope that I will be safe
until the rally.

1114
01:12:43,010 --> 01:12:43,924
Thank you.
1115
01:13:01,594 --> 01:13:03,509
We don't have a specific
comment on anyone
1116
01:13:03,683 --> 01:13:05,032
who hasn't been named so far.
1117
01:13:06,686 --> 01:13:08,819
We are essentially describing
the tracing of the assets,
1118
01:13:08,993 --> 01:13:10,647
the use of the funds,
1119
01:13:10,821 --> 01:13:12,692
and who was involved
in the transactions.
1120
01:13:21,222 --> 01:13:23,007
[woman]
1121
01:13:28,447 --> 01:13:30,318
Our agreement is only to draft
the complaint
1122
01:13:30,493 --> 01:13:32,756
as we always do
in civil forfeiture matters.
1123
01:13:33,670 --> 01:13:35,236
You'll see that this
is a complaint that is against
1124
01:13:35,411 --> 01:13:36,934
the actual property or assets.
1125

[all chanting in Malay]
1131
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:17,191
In October of 2015,
my LA field office
1132
01:14:17,365 --> 01:14:20,020
joined the investigation,
specifically focusing
1133
01:14:20,586 --> 01:14:21,935
on Riza Aziz.
1134
01:14:23,241 --> 01:14:24,155
And Red Granite Pictures.
1135
01:14:25,069 --> 01:14:26,331
The real question is this,
1136
01:14:26,897 --> 01:14:28,289
was all this legal?
1137
01:14:29,247 --> 01:14:30,683
Absolutely fucking not.
1138
01:14:32,424 --> 01:14:35,383
[man] Approximately 238 million
was wired
1139
01:14:36,602 --> 01:14:38,952
to Red Granite capital
in Singapore,
1140
01:14:39,126 --> 01:14:41,433
an entity controlled by Aziz.
1141
01:14:42,042 --> 01:14:43,522
This money was then used
to fund
1142
01:14:43,696 --> 01:14:46,133
Red Granite Pictures operations,
1143
01:14:46,307 --> 01:14:48,832
including the production
of the film
1144
01:14:49,006 --> 01:14:50,137
The Wolf of Wall Street.
1145
01:14:52,662 --> 01:14:55,752
[Gregory] If it's proven
that in fact the money
1146
01:14:55,926 --> 01:14:58,537
was embezzled
from the government of Malaysia,
1147
01:14:58,711 --> 01:15:00,234
transferred around the world,
1148
01:15:00,408 --> 01:15:03,281
and ultimately went
into the funding of a movie
1149
01:15:04,021 --> 01:15:06,545
about the story of a man,
who stole money
1150
01:15:06,719 --> 01:15:08,025
and moved it
around the world,
1151
01:15:08,373 --> 01:15:09,635
that's the ultimate irony.
1152
01:15:13,291 --> 01:15:17,077
The parallels between
Jho Low and Jordan Belfort
1153
01:15:17,251 --> 01:15:19,166
in The Wolf of Wall Street
are amazing.
1154
01:15:19,732 --> 01:15:21,081
In the early days,
very disciplined,
1155
01:15:21,255 --> 01:15:23,910
very creative, very charismatic,
1156
01:15:24,998 --> 01:15:28,132
but, unfortunately,
I think the-- the intoxication
1157
01:15:28,306 --> 01:15:29,916
of power and wealth,
1158
01:15:30,787 --> 01:15:33,137
it led him
on a very deadly path.
1159
01:15:40,797 --> 01:15:44,104
When these guys tend to get
the money that they get,
1160
01:15:44,278 --> 01:15:46,237
they forget the definition
of the word excess.
1161
01:15:47,281 --> 01:15:48,761
I know
we're a little unorthodox,
1162
01:15:48,935 --> 01:15:50,807
we're a little loud
in the way we do things.
1163
01:15:50,981 --> 01:15:52,983
But you gotta understand,
we're the new guys on the block,
1164
01:15:53,157 --> 01:15:55,028
you know, trying to make
a name for ourselves, but...
1165
01:15:56,073 --> 01:15:57,509
I want you to understand,
we don't...
1166
01:15:58,815 --> 01:16:00,120
do anything illegal.
1167
01:16:01,165 --> 01:16:02,166
[Gregory]
Money bought him power,
1168
01:16:02,340 --> 01:16:02,906
bought him access.
1169
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,214
It bought him recognition,
it bought him status.
1170
01:16:08,868 --> 01:16:11,828
It bought him anything that
crazy sums of money can buy.
1171
01:16:13,220 --> 01:16:15,005
[man] From Saudi Arabia
to Malaysia,
1172
01:16:15,179 --> 01:16:16,746
to the heart...
1173
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:18,225
[Leonardo] To me,
this is absolutely
1174
01:16:18,399 --> 01:16:19,749
a cautionary tale,
1175
01:16:19,923 --> 01:16:21,968
and if you're gonna
submerge yourself
1176
01:16:22,142 --> 01:16:25,058
in the attitude of people
that had been very destructive
1177
01:16:25,232 --> 01:16:27,931
or a con, I mean, we've got
to understand what entices them,
1178
01:16:28,627 --> 01:16:30,455
and we've got to be honest
and authentic about
1179
01:16:30,629 --> 01:16:32,022
the portrayal of who
these people are.
1180
01:16:32,413 --> 01:16:33,371
[crowd cheering]
1181
01:16:33,545 --> 01:16:34,764
[Joey]
I think whenever
1182
01:16:34,938 --> 01:16:36,200
you're dealing
with a young person,
1183
01:16:36,374 --> 01:16:39,072
who-- who's--
who's put in a position
1184
01:16:39,246 --> 01:16:40,683
to make an enormous
amount of money,
1185
01:16:40,857 --> 01:16:42,685
and doesn't have the discipline
to control it,
1186
01:16:43,381 --> 01:16:44,687
there's a little bit, you--
you know,
1187
01:16:44,861 --> 01:16:46,123
of empathy
that you feel for them,
1188
01:16:46,297 --> 01:16:47,690
but at the end of the day,
you know...
1189
01:16:48,821 --> 01:16:50,475
we're all--
we all have to, uh--
1190
01:16:50,649 --> 01:16:53,565
we all have to pay
for the actions we do,
1191
01:16:53,739 --> 01:16:56,133
and that's, kind of,
how our story ends.
1192
01:16:56,307 --> 01:16:57,874
And you know what I was
just thinking, too?
1193
01:16:58,048 --> 01:17:00,354
The fucking hero that I'm gonna
be back at the office.
1194
01:17:01,312 --> 01:17:03,444
When the Bureau seizes
this fucking boat,
1195
01:17:03,619 --> 01:17:05,316
because, I mean,
fuckety-fuck-fuck,
1196
01:17:05,490 --> 01:17:06,796
-Jordan, look at this thing.

[intense music playing]
1198
01:17:23,421 --> 01:17:27,817
[man] We will not allow
the massive, brazen,
1199
01:17:28,731 --> 01:17:32,691
and blatant diversion
of billions of dollars
1200
01:17:32,865 --> 01:17:34,911
from 1MDB,
1201
01:17:35,085 --> 01:17:37,696
and the alleged laundering
of those funds
1202
01:17:37,870 --> 01:17:40,046
through US financial
institutions
1203
01:17:40,481 --> 01:17:41,657

1209
01:18:29,095 --> 01:18:30,836
[Tom] There categorically
would have not been
1210
01:18:31,010 --> 01:18:32,969
a 1MDB scandal
without Jho Low.
1211
01:18:34,187 --> 01:18:37,625
He is behind the scenes,
running the fund.
1212
01:18:40,019 --> 01:18:42,543
But what exactly did Najib know
about it?
1213
01:18:45,459 --> 01:18:47,592
It's unclear and more
reporting needs to be done
1214
01:18:47,766 --> 01:18:50,464
about exactly what did he know
about billions
1215
01:18:50,638 --> 01:18:52,858
that-- that-- that investigators
are looking into.
1216
01:18:53,250 --> 01:18:54,686
[dramatic music playing]
1217
01:19:00,953 --> 01:19:03,303
[crowd cheering]
1218
01:19:06,045 --> 01:19:08,178
[woman] Nearly 15 million
Malaysians will vote
1219
01:19:08,352 --> 01:19:10,223
in general elections
that will determine
1220
01:19:10,397 --> 01:19:12,138
if the National Front Coalition
1221
01:19:12,312 --> 01:19:14,793
can extend its 60-year grip
on power.
1222
01:19:15,533 --> 01:19:17,753
They will choose between
Prime Minister Najib Razak...
1223
01:19:20,190 --> 01:19:23,193
or the opposition led
by 92-year old former leader,
1224
01:19:23,367 --> 01:19:24,150
Mahathir Mohamad.
1225
01:19:26,065 --> 01:19:29,982
Anger over the 1MDB fiasco
led to the return of Mahathir.
1226
01:19:30,156 --> 01:19:31,636
[speaking Malay]
1227
01:19:32,724 --> 01:19:34,595
He has galvanized
a fractured opposition
1228
01:19:34,770 --> 01:19:36,989
to out what he calls
a government of thieves.
1229
01:19:37,729 --> 01:19:39,557
But the odds are stacked
against them.
1230
01:19:54,224 --> 01:19:55,791
[chanting in Malay]
1231
01:19:57,967 --> 01:19:59,229
Well, against the odds,
1232
01:19:59,403 --> 01:20:01,797
Malaysia's former ruler
Mahathir Mohamad
1233
01:20:01,971 --> 01:20:04,016
is once again
set to take control.
1234
01:20:04,495 --> 01:20:06,192
[crowd cheering]
1235
01:20:06,758 --> 01:20:08,542
[man] He's lead
an opposition coalition
1236
01:20:08,716 --> 01:20:09,892
to a shock victory.
1237
01:20:10,936 --> 01:20:12,720
[man] Disbelief and euphoria
1238
01:20:12,895 --> 01:20:15,114
as long suffering supporters
of Malaysia's opposition
1239
01:20:16,202 --> 01:20:18,596
finally realized what seemed
a near impossible dream.
1240
01:20:18,770 --> 01:20:20,424
[crowd cheering]
1241
01:20:22,121 --> 01:20:23,470
[indistinct chanting]
1242
01:20:27,300 --> 01:20:30,347
I accept
the verdict of the people.
1243
01:20:31,391 --> 01:20:33,524
Well, that's it. Six decades
of one party rule is over.
1244
01:20:36,179 --> 01:20:39,138
We feel as if we're breathing
new air today.
1245
01:20:39,312 --> 01:20:40,705
[man] How do you feel now?
1246
01:20:40,879 --> 01:20:42,794
No. I feel very,
very happy, you see.
1247
01:20:43,403 --> 01:20:45,797
It's-- the feeling
is just awesome.
1248
01:20:48,452 --> 01:20:51,063
[Nazi] For Malaysia, uh,
I was very happy.
1249
01:20:51,803 --> 01:20:54,197
Um,
because it was gonna happen--
1250
01:20:54,371 --> 01:20:55,981
it was gonna happen peacefully,
1251
01:20:56,155 --> 01:20:59,071
uh, and I was very proud,
uh, of my country.
1252
01:21:00,943 --> 01:21:01,769
But at the same time...
1253
01:21:03,641 --> 01:21:06,557
I've been through
a very eclectic set of emotions.
1254
01:21:06,731 --> 01:21:08,254
It's very, very hard
to describe.
1255
01:21:09,168 --> 01:21:10,996
The Malaysian government
has slapped a travel ban
1256
01:21:11,170 --> 01:21:13,346
on ousted Prime Minster
Najib Razak,
1257
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:15,087
just as he was about to leave
the country
1258
01:21:15,261 --> 01:21:16,045
on a private jet.
1259
01:21:17,481 --> 01:21:18,134
[man] Dr. Mahathir
is bound to go after
1260
01:21:19,875 --> 01:21:22,486
the billions of dollars
allegedly stolen in the 1MDB
1261
01:21:22,660 --> 01:21:23,356
corruption scandal.
1262
01:21:26,882 --> 01:21:28,535
I am not sure
whether I'm the one
1263
01:21:28,709 --> 01:21:30,624
who going to end up in prison...
1264
01:21:31,843 --> 01:21:33,801
or the prime minister
and the wife.
1265
01:21:34,411 --> 01:21:35,673
[chanting in Malay]
1266
01:21:39,546 --> 01:21:40,983
-[indistinct chatter]
-[cameras clicking]
1267
01:21:43,855 --> 01:21:45,291
[Nazir]
I was in a board meeting,
1268
01:21:46,118 --> 01:21:47,990
uh, when my phone
kept ringing
1269
01:21:48,164 --> 01:21:50,122
because my brother
was being arrested.
1270
01:21:53,778 --> 01:21:54,561
You can...
1271
01:21:57,782 --> 01:21:58,870
never prepare...
1272
01:21:59,827 --> 01:22:02,526
for the sins of...
1273
01:22:03,875 --> 01:22:06,443
your brother being charged.
1274
01:22:07,139 --> 01:22:08,445
-[indistinct chatter]
-[cameras clicking]
1275
01:22:12,057 --> 01:22:13,493
[Nazir] It was painful to watch.
1276
01:22:17,236 --> 01:22:20,152
Uh, I felt very sad.
Uh, I felt very sad for him.
1277
01:22:21,110 --> 01:22:23,677
Uh, I felt especially sad
for my mother.
1278
01:22:27,855 --> 01:22:29,553
[man speaking Malay]
1279
01:22:30,380 --> 01:22:31,816
[woman]
Police officers conducted
1280
01:22:31,990 --> 01:22:34,166
a three-hour raid
on former premier
1281
01:22:34,340 --> 01:22:35,994
Najib Tun Razak's
safe house
1282
01:22:36,473 --> 01:22:37,517
in precinct ten.
1283
01:22:39,128 --> 01:22:40,825
[man] The boxes filled
with handbags, jewelry,
1284
01:22:41,217 --> 01:22:42,827
and cash kept on coming.
1285
01:22:43,828 --> 01:22:44,872
[man 2]
Seventeen million dollars
1286
01:22:45,047 --> 01:22:46,526
worth of designer handbags
1287
01:22:47,397 --> 01:22:49,268
and so much cash,
it took twenty-two officials
1288
01:22:49,442 --> 01:22:50,835
with six counting machines
1289
01:22:51,488 --> 01:22:52,880
three days to get through it.
1290
01:23:12,900 --> 01:23:14,554
[intense music playing]
1291
