A three-night hotel stay during Singapore's Formula One Grand Prix was auctioned off for S$30,000 on Sunday.
Assisi Hospice's Light-a-Heart charity dinnerSenior Minister Goh Chok Tong and his wife were among the 500 guests at the recent Assisi Hospice's Light-a-Heart charity dinner.
The event started off with an auction for a one-night Presidential Suite stay at the Pan Pacific Hotel.
The hotel's management, who were also at the dinner, decided to capitalise on the interest in Singapore's F1 race by making an on-the-spot, impromptu offer to contribute a three-night room stay at the Pan Pacific during the F1 Grand Prix next year.
There was an instant buzz and within minutes, the package was sold for S$30,000.
This helped the Assisi Hospice to meet its target of raising S$700,000 for its cancer patients. - CNA/so
