RWS completes structure of its 5th hotel

Expected to open in 2012, the seven-storey Equarius Hotel will offer 172 guestrooms.

The topping-out ceremony last 27 May 2011 was led by Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay, Chairman of the Genting Group and Resorts World Sentosa, and witnessed by executives from contractors Sembawang Engineers & Constructors Pte Ltd, partners DP Architects Ptd Ltd, DP Consultants Pte Ltd as well as RWS's top executives.

RWS’s Chairman Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay said, “This topping-up ceremony of Equarius Hotel is a momentous milestone for us, as it marks the structural completion of our first of two hotels in our phase two development and is yet another unique offering in the stable of hotels in RWS.”

According to Tan Sri, they have hosted over 15 million visitors at RWS since January 2010. He said they expect this number to increase significantly as they prepare for the resort’s West Zone development.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
