According to lady boss Mabel Lee, RWS is bleeding badly and may call for another rights issue.

First event at Marina Bay Sands to take place just days after opening

SINGAPORE : Singapore's second Integrated resort, Marina Bay Sands is set to host guests taking part in a multi-million dollar conference in less than two weeks.

It is the very first event taking place there. But with some parts of the resort still being under construction, organisers of the event have raised some concerns.

About 1,000 delegates are expected to attend the Inter-Pacific Bar Association 20th Annual Conference that will begin on April 30.

The conference will seek to address climate change and legal practice. The former US vice-president Al Gore and Singapore's Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew will be among the distinguished speakers.

Organisers said they had decided to host guests at Marina Bay Sands to offer a different and unique experience to them.

Plans were firmed up more than a year ago and organisers were told that the integrated resort will open by September last year or latest, by the start of this year.

The integrated resort is opening in phases, starting on April 27.

And as it's just days before the conference kicks off, the conference organisers have raised concerns about the delegates' experience.

"Our comfort when we originally signed with MBS (Marina Bay Sands) was that they will give us a full five months at the least for the run-in to take place. Right now it has been reduced to a matter of days. And this is of course a very delicate management issue - to make sure that whatever training and staff experience that they have, will be impacting our guests," said Yap Wai Ming, chairman of Organising Committee, IPBA 2010 Singapore.

"There are a lot of things that are not complete but as the day progresses, they have actually put in three shifts - it's a 24-hour schedule that they are putting in. So far, I think they are able to show us some of the progress that they have made. But of course, it is nothing compared to the real thing," he added.

Still, organisers are not leaving anything to chance and they are monitoring developments closely.

"We have been given site visits... We have seen the actual rooms. They look quite fantastic... a class of its own by Singapore standards. (As for) the convention hall, at this point in time, they are still making the finishing touches relating to the decoration. I think it should come up reasonably well," said Yap.

"We are constantly in touch with the management. They told us most of the things are done properly and they have contingency plans in place, in case certain parts are not ready. They have actually given us all those assurances. So fingers crossed, it should turn out as a fantastic conference as they have promised us," he added.

Organisers said another site visit is being scheduled some time this week.

Yap said Marina Bay Sands has also promised that all construction activities near the hotel and conference hall will stop completely during the course of the conference.

Responding to media queries, Marina Bay Sands said its staff are going through extensive simulation exercises to put them through the paces.

It said it is also working closely with the IPBA's organising committee to ensure a smooth and memorable stay for all delegates and VIPs. - CNA /ls

Originally suppose to have a grand opening for MBS.

They even bought fireworks !!!

Unfortunately MBS is still 1 big construction site. So no choice ... Minister Mah get to open bridge leading to MBS. :biggrin:


SINGAPORE: The world’s first curved double helix pedestrian bridge will open to the public on April 24 from 9.30pm.

Located at Marina Bay, the pedestrian bridge will connect Marina Centre to the Bayfront area.

The bridge will also lead to the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort when phase 2 of the IR opens this June.

For motorists, there will be a new vehicular bridge located just beside the double helix bridge.

Vehicles can pass through this new road from 3pm on April 25.

The Youth Olympic Park located at the entrance of the bridge will also open on Saturday.

National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan will officially open both bridges and the Youth Olympic Park at 8pm on April 24.

The event will be opened to the public and those interested can head down to the seating gallery at Marina Bay’s floating platform.

The opening ceremony will feature a series of performances and a two—minute pyrotechnic display. — CNA/fa
