Scrutiny for Sheldon Adelson's frontman in China

14 August 2012

The New York Times reports that Yang Saixin, Las Vegas Sands Corp. Chairman and CEO Sheldon Adelson's principal Beijing representative, along with tens of millions of dollars in payments the Sands made through Yang in China, is a focus of a wide-ranging federal investigation into potential bribery of foreign officials and other matters in China and Macau.

According to the New York Times report, the investigations are unfolding as Mr. Adelson has become an increasing presence in this year’s U.S. presidential election, contributing at least $35 million to Republican groups.
