The payment amount also includes 1/8 % for the commission charge by the bank to TT the money.

  • SIGA (ADULT) – S$375.00 (please note that single occupancy surcharge is USD30 per night per person)

Once your cheque has cleared, you will receive a confirmation from us.

Thank you for your understanding of the steps involved in the payment process. They are unavoidable as the organizer (KABESA) requires payment to be made in US dollars.

Plus, they require the payment to be submitted before event itself, hence we need to collect the payment amount upfront since no payments will be accepted on the event date itself.
