The recent conviction in Vietnam of Truong My Lan and sentencing to death for the white collar crime of stealing around $17B CAD from a bank is pretty wild. This is an absolutely insane amount and may be the largest fraud ever in the world. While death sentencing isn't something I support, I've always been impressed at how hard countries like Vietnam, China and others in the global south and Asia in general, go after white collar corruption-like crimes.
