Thirty years on, that vision has become a proud reality. From London to Beijing, Dubai to New York, our hotels have welcomed guests from every corner of the globe. This milestone is a testament not only to our company, but to the people behind it, our dedicated teams, trusted partners, and loyal guests who have shaped this journey together. Looking ahead, my aspiration is for our group to continue expanding its global footprint, with Singapore’s flag proudly flying on properties in key cities across the world.”
A highlight of the evening was the unveiling of a commemorative video that captured MHR’s 30-year journey from its roots in Singapore to its global presence today. The video featured Mr. Kwek, who shared reflections on his legacy and the enduring values that have shaped MHR since its founding.
