The Mount Faber area is to be rejuvenated before the planned integrated resort opens at Sentosa, Channel News Asia reports.
The announcement came yesterday from Loo Choon Yong, chairman of Sentosa Development Corporation at the opening of the island’s latest attraction, the Asian Tour headquarters.
The Asian Tour is the official regional sanctioning body for professional golf in Asia, which aims to expand tournament golf.
The Asian Tour now includes 27 events offering a total of US$27 million in prizes.
Dr Loo was reported as saying that the tourism board and the ministry of trade and industry were ‘asking us to prepare a master plan to look at how we can develop the foothills in Mount Faber; how we can incorporate it into the whole neighbourhood’.
He said: ‘Sentosa is an exciting place, so is VivoCity and St James Power Station. There is residence, there is activity and nightlife, so I think the Faber foothills present opportunities.’
Options being looked at for Mount Faber include recreational activities, dining outlets and accommodation, the report said.
