Two former senior executives at Johnson Cleaning Services Company have been charged with accepting over HK$75 million in bribes, according to Hong Kong's Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC). William Fung Chi-wang, 54, and Jimmy Lee Sai-leung, 57, were charged with conspiracy to accept advantages under the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance and the Crimes Ordinance.
The pair will appear in Kwun Tong Court on Monday. Fung served as director of the company, overseeing business operations, while Lee acted as general manager. Between November 2024 and January 2026, Johnson procured several fleets of cleaning vehicles and utilized maintenance services from a supplier, with total expenses surpassing HK$160 million.
The charges allege that Fung and Lee conspired to take bribes from the supplier's owner and others, offering rewards for favorable treatment in Johnson's dealings with the supplier. While the ICAC has not ruled out further prosecution, it noted that Johnson had cooperated fully with the investigation. Johnson Holdings, established in 1979, is a Hong Kong-based firm providing cleaning and facility management services, employing more than 13,000 people.
