I've lived in Singapore for several years and I frequent this establishment often. The view is beautiful and the atmosphere is generally good. Nevertheless what happened to us tonight was unforgivable.

We go here more or less every Friday night however what befell us tonight will stop me (and hopefully you) in my tracks.

There was a group of 10 of us (mixed) in the VIP/ Members area and we were minding our own business. The table next to us was causing a bit of a ruckus but as it didn't affect us we didn't really mind. until one of the boys walked over starred us down and then knocked our bottle off the table intentionally he was clearly a drunken idiot gunning for a fight. Though this was inexcusable we let it slide. However the management's reaction I cannot let get away.

They just let him get away and go back to his table. There was a bouncer standing right next to us and saw the whole event unfold and yet nothing, no repercussions at all whatsoever.

Not only did they allow him to stay in the establishment, they defended him and permitted him to carry on being boisterous and unruly while he threatened us from afar.

It was the last thing I expected from an international brand in a country where I once perceived behavior to be fair and justly managed.

The bouncers response was that " They spent money and you spent money so I have given them a warning".

Don't be fooled for all its glitz and glamour that might seduce an unwitting and well paying patron, they run by some rule that money counts for everything.

I (and my friends) felt threatened and unsafe at such an unruly establishment where they allow "Money to talk" in such a way that such behavior is acceptable. The guests where allowed to stay on and continue gesturing and threatening us for the rest of the night when we were just trying to enjoy an innocent Friday night out with friends.

I therefore beseech you to not patronage them with your support when they run such a unprofessional and unruly management of their clientele. As an international brand they should regulate and manage their crowd so that the majority of their patrons establish a safe and light hearted environment not an environment that festers animosity and un-comfortableness.

For the premium they dictate that's the least they can do.

Unfortunately they have lost themselves numerous well paying regulars ( to the VP) that have held them in high regard until now. In a city that offers so much variety and options this has now become one that I would negatively endorse as there are so many more options that would not allow this kind of behavior to occur.

Thank you.
