The NATO republic of Montenegro has opened its doors to investment from Malaysian Paul Phua and his network of associates for eight years. Phua has been named as a member of Hong Kong organised crime group the Triads, according to FBI testimony.

In 2014, Phua's associates planned a secret meeting between then-Montenegro Prime Minister (now President Milo Đukanović) and Phua himself in Venice, an FBI transcript reveals. The Montenegrin Government refuses to issue complete information of the PM's whereabouts during the proposed time of the meeting.
Phua has been the owner of one of the largest online betting companies in the world, IBC Bet, according to a confession by a member of his family. IBC Bet, now called Maxbet, has been called illegal as its operations are accessible to consumers in countries where it does not hold a betting license. Over six million euros from a named company that owns IBC Bet was deposited in an account of a Montenegrin bank, owned by one of Phua's partners.
According to a report by the Qatar-based International Center for Sports Security (ICSS) seen by the European Investigative Collaborations (EIC) Network (of which The Black Sea is a member), the ICSS alleges: 'Intelligence indicators point to Montenegro as the centre of an international money laundering system used by Asian [organised crime groups] OCGs to launder proceeds from criminal activities. Companies linked to Phua… are central to this.'
The Malaysian poker star is also suspected of bribing San Marino officials with over €2 million to secure the diplomatic position of 'Ambassador of San Marino to Montenegro' - a position he held from 2011 until 2014. A trial will start next year.
A landmark of Montenegro on an islet in the Adriatic, the exclusive Sveti Stefan Hotel, has highly likely come under the control of Phua and his network. Phua also owns the company behind the new Maestral Hotel in Montenegro, and there are strong links between the online gambling business of Montenegro and Phua's betting site.
This is a new investigation sourced from insider information, public data and Football Leaks documents obtained by the German news magazine Der Spiegel and shared with The Black Sea, Nacional and their partners in the EIC network, made in collaboration with Montenegrin news site Vijesti.
