AS PART of Singapore’s ongoing Golden Jubilee celebrations, the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and MasterCard have teamed up to enhance the privileges enjoyed by tourists to the republic in 2015, a milestone year for the nation as it celebrates 50 years of independence.
Cardholders travelling to Singapore this year will receive a Golden Jubilee MasterCard Prepaid Card containing S$50 (US$35.70) in stored value by spending a minimum of S$800, or S$600 using a MasterCard card, at any of the 16 participating shopping malls across the island. These include popular spots such as Paragon, VivoCity, Suntec City, Plaza Singapura and 313@somerset.
Other privileges include being eligible to participate in a monthly draw to win an all-expenses-paid trip back to Singapore, as well as being entitled to an array of discount deals for airfares, hotel stays, shopping, dining and attraction tickets.
“2015 marks a tremendous milestone for Singapore and we’ve lined up a wide array of experiences and activities that aim to make it a special year for our valued overseas guests,” said Lynette Pang, assistant chief executive of STB in a statement.
