Singapore minister charged with corruption over kickbacks from tycoon

S Iswaran resigns in wake of first graft case to target a minister in the city-state since 1986

Singapore’s transport minister has been charged with corruption and has resigned, in a rare graft accusation in the city-state that prides itself on its reputation for clean governance and transparency.
