Follow the Money: The Edge's Exposés on 1MDB

The Edge recently featured a series of reports on 1Malaysia Development Berhad in its daily and weekly publications. The exposé, which highlighted the fund’s massive debt and the RM18 billion it had parked in the Cayman Islands, has resulted in closer scrutiny of 1MDB’s financial management.

Melisa Idris goes behind the headlines with Ho Kay Tat, the Group CEO and publisher of The Edge Media Group.

The full-length version of this interview was aired on The Week In Review.
