Belle Haven Consultants

Belle Haven was a subcontractor, then was purchased by ASG partner Edward Stewart, co-owner of the firm along with long-time associate Beth Allison Cave.

By the end of 2001, Belle Haven hired ASG for help "promoting and advocating Malaysia's positive investment climate and business opportunities" in connection with a company called PK Baru Energy.

In late September 2001, Ed Buckham, DeLay's former chief of staff, became a subcontractor to Belle Haven Consultants, earning $620,000 from the relationship over the next two years.

Though in past years Heritage had been publicly critical of Mahathir, Feulner hosted a dinner reception on that visit to honor the prime minister.

According to documents filed with the U.S. Justice Department by Alexander Strategy Group, Belle Haven paid ASG at least $620,000 in fees originating with Malaysian business interests.
