Federal Bureau of Investigation agents are said to be in Manila investigating alleged bribe payments amounting to millions of US dollars for a Japanese company’s casino project at the Entertainment City in Pasay. The FBI agents, in coordination with agents of the National Bureau of Investigation, have been looking into the alleged illegal payments since last week. The investigations involve Universal Entertainment’s payment to Rodolfo Soriano, a former consultant of Philippine gaming regulator Pagcor or the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. The investigation focuses on US$40 million in payments transferred to Soriano at the time Universal Entertainment sought and won key concessions for its Manila Bay casino project in 2010. The FBI is looking into the alleged transfer of funds from Kazuo Okada’s gambling units in Nevada to Hong Kong and onto bank accounts of firms associated with Soriano.
