    Haw Par imbroglio

    Pernas participated in a complex corporate strategy involving Haw Par Brothers International, London Tin Company, and Sime Darby. The plan was disrupted when Singapore authorities investigated alleged financial irregularities involving Haw Par. A senior executive was jailed, while Donald Watson, identified as the company's head, fled to Ireland. The episode became a major controversy associated with Pernas's early international corporate expansion.
