"Suntec mall tenants seeking lower rent"

Oh my gosh...it's soooooooooooooo quiet. Suntec is such a dead town. Not a soul walking around (other than just tenants and staffs of the shops here).

In today's ST, there's an article that mentions of Galleria tenants complaining of low sales that are not even enough to cover rental. They are even seeking lower rent (For more, refer to article in 8th May 2008 ST p. H20 titled "Suntec mall tenants seeking lower rent"). Level 1 shops are already like that...what's more us on level 3. My.PlayGround tenants (including us) are intending to email ST individually to inform them that we are having the same problem but at a worse situation as most people in Singapore do not even know that this place even existed. I think this will definitely pressurise Suntec to do something about it.

It's so quiet. Should we start our GSS promotion earlier? A neighbouring shop in My.PlayGround is doing a 4-days Mothers' Day Promotion. And the irritating woman of My.PlayGround is "telling her off" for doing the promotion saying that it is affecting her business. Crazy ah. Other shops doing promotion is not her problem what. They have the right to do promotion esp to clear their older stock, if not what? Hang them for show? Collect dust? Cockroaches to bite? Crazy woman. Everything also complain. In a couple of weeks time, the whole Singapore will be doing promotion during GSS (from what I know, GSS promotion gives UP TO 70% discount). Her business will really really really be affected then if she don't join in the promotion.
