SINGAPORE: Singapore is giving workers in the tourism sector a
tune-up before tens of thousands of auto racing fans descend on the
city-state for the world’s first Formula One Grand Prix night
race.
Up to 2,000 supervisors who work in shops, bars,
restaurants and tourist attractions will receive the four-hour
training, the Singapore Tourism Board said in a statement issued on
August 29.
The training is “specially designed to refresh
participants on the finer points of providing good customer service
as well as provide essential information on the race” and related
events, it said.
Singapore is to host a Grand Prix street circuit
race for the first time on September 28. The government is hoping
the event will boost its tourism coffers by $100 million a year.
