Responding to the lawyer's question about the two albino crocodile leather bags, defendant Truong My Lan still expressed her desire to receive the two bags back. The defendant said that one was purchased in Italy and the other was given to her by a Malaysian tycoon. Even with money, the two crocodile leather bags cannot be bought, because "if the names Truong My Lan and Chu Lap Co do not have enough prestige in the world, they cannot be bought."

According to the defendant, these two bags are not worth much compared to the assets he brought in to remedy the consequences, so he asked the court to let him have them back as souvenirs. If he auctioned the two bags, it would be very time-consuming and difficult for anyone to buy them.
