SINGAPORE: The recently opened Marina Bay Sands integrated resort experienced an embarrassing hiccup Tuesday.
While the Chief Justice of New South Wales was speaking at a legal conference, stage lights went out and the sound system went dead.
It was a blackout which did not amuse the audience.
MediaCorp learnt several members left while those who stayed were moved to a smaller conference hall.
Tuesday's fiasco is not the first to plague the integrated resort.
A number of delegates who'd checked into the hotel last week complained of air conditioners not working, luggage delivered to rooms two hours after check-in, and toilets that did not flush.
Some delegates were even trapped in lifts for up to 20 minutes.
An organiser of the legal conference said the facilities have not been up to expectations.
A spokesperson said they've been working with the organisers to ensure the success of the legal conference.

Walau, a legal conference some more . Did the conference centre get sued for not delivering on their promise ?

That is what you expect from a rushed job.

This project should only be completed in 6-12 months time; not in April.

But what to do. One mouth DEMAND; die die must open. SO die lah; electricity die, toilets die, etc

I hope foundations strong because built on reclaimed land. Wait Indon earthquake, MBS will do the 2 step or tango dance for all it's customers.

ONLY IN SINGAPORE. UNIQUELY SINGAPORE....YOUR SINGAPORE!
