Sijori Resort Club Members file class action against
club owner Treasure Resort
More than 200 members of the former Sijori Resort Club on
Sentosa have filed a class action lawsuit against the new owners of
the club for breach of contract.
A writ was filed in the High Court yesterday, against Treasure
Resort and its sister company Colony Members Service Club, by seven
plaintiffs representing the members.
They are alleging that Treasure Resort renounced its obligations
under the membership agreement when it bought over the
club.
It drew up a new agreement, with changes including a massive hike
in monthly subscription payments of more than 5 times the original
amount.
The members also claim that they have been denied membership
privileges since Treasure Resort took over as club owner in
2006.
Efforts by MediaCorp to contact Treasure Resort were
unsuccessful.
