Mr Lau Chu Paki-
Then you say that O'Keiff told you that he thought a
friend of his could lend you money. Now, what happened
after that ?
8589
He said "I know Ward has got money". Then Ward promised
to lend, and a stamped document in English was written.
It was given to me at the end of the Chinese New Year -
a few days before the end of the year.
And how much did Ward lend you ?
8840
$500. It was not that he wished to lend it, but O'Keiff
was security.
Alright, now what interest did you agree to pay Ward 1891
for that money
$15 a month.
That is 36 ler ante.
It is over 30%.
It works out to about 50 to 60% per annum.
Well, he was to pay you $15 a month for interest ↑
Are you still paying that interest ?
