Last year, Lim made a US$525.5 million bid to buy the Liverpool Football Club, but later withdrew the offer after the club went into the hands of New England Sports Ventures after a court ruling.
Lim separately has exclusive rights to own and operate a chain of Manchester United-themed restaurants and bars in Asia.
Debt collectors move in on Swedish carmaker
Sweden's Debt Enforcement Agency has started collection proceedings against Saab Automobile after the cash-starved carmaker failed to meet a deadline to pay two suppliers.
"We've just begun by looking at what kind of bank accounts they have and what kind of collateral there might be," said an official.
Saab was supposed to pay Kongsberg Automotive AB, a Norwegian maker of car-seat parts, and Infotiv AB, a Sweden-based consulting firm, a combined US$633,000 to avert the proceedings.
Saab was forced to halt production in late March amid a cash crunch, and its Trollhaettan factory in Sweden has been quiet since early June.
Saab is trying to raise more funds and has said it aims to restart manufacturing in a few weeks. But analysts say the car company that began making fighter jets is doomed.
It has never overcome the damage done by General Motors, which bought 50 per cent in 1990 and a further 50 per cent in 2000.
