Melbourne newspaper The Age said polymer notemaker Securency, then partially owned by the Reserve Bank of Australia, paid for Vietnamese bank governor Le Duc Thuy’s child to attend the University of Durham using a “secret slush fund”.
Thuy, head of the Vietnamese central bank between 1999 and 2007, is now chair of the National Finance Supervision Council.
Securency is embroiled in a long-running investigation into claims its agents offered bribes to officials in countries including Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia to win contracts.
Police arrested several people in Britain, Spain, Australia and Malaysia last October.
Sources told The Age the Securency “slush fund” was established with some of the A$15 million (US$14.95 million) in commission paid to middleman Anh Ngoc Luong for helping win huge banknote contracts in Vietnam between 2002 and 2009.
The Age said Australian police suspected Luong’s commissions, paid into Hong Kong and Swiss bank accounts and with the approval of the RBA board, were “diverted to Vietnamese officials or their relatives”.
Securency executives denied direct involvement in the payment of bribes, The Age said.
Neither the RBA nor Securency chairman Bob Rankin returned calls for comment.
In Vietnam, an official at the National Finance Supervision Council said that Thuy was unavailable for comment.

មែនទេនទៅ មនុស្សលោកយើង មិនមែនសុទ្ធ
តែជាអ្នកស្អាតស្អំទាំងអស់គ្នានោះទេ។
មនុស្សយើងភាគច្រើន គឺពួកគេគិតប្រយោជន៍
ក្រុមគ្រួសាររបស់ខ្លួនជាធំ ។រីឯបញ្ហាពុករលួយនោះវិញ
មិនថានៅទីណាឡើយ អោយតែមានឧិកាស គឺប្រាកដជាមាន អ្នកហ៊ានប្រព្រឹត្តជាមិនខាន

PS
If Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet remove the tablet it is show they are extremely coward and his star are just joy stars given by his daddy not by patriotism. Dr. Hun Manet is very coward as his daddy they only aim to kill innocent cambodians that all. Dr. Hun SEn and Dr. ten stars Hun Manet are very great at bullying cambodians and killing Cambodians but cowardly toward Thai and Viet.
Seriously where is the win win policy of Dr. Hun Sen represent. The country is getting smaller and shamer by Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet.
