Is South Africa part of APAC? Would have assumed it is part of EMEA.

From upthread the eligible regions are Asia Pacific (excluding China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), the Middle East and Africa.

So no, Africa isn't within the Asia Pacific region, but would fall within the eligibility of this promotion.

My second stay for this promo posted, somewhat ironically given the description:

DO NOT REGISTER 9,000 pts.

Good news. The 10,000 point completion bonus has now posted, around 6-weeks after my 3rd stay.

[The 'My Offer Status' page in my account has not updated though. It still shows the 3 stays but summarises only 2 stays and 14,000 points earned.]

Same here, very happy with this little points boost.

Just saw this post and will be registering for this promo for an upcoming 3 night stay in KL. Like to check if I need 3 separate night to qualify? Thanks!

You need three separate bookings, two back to back have triggered separate bonuses for me.

Be careful with Back-to-Back bookings. As per the offer T&C's...

"A stay is defined per IHG® Rewards Club Membership Terms and Conditions as one night or consecutive nights at the same hotel, regardless of frequency of check-in/out."

If you have enough travel plans, 3 separate bookings may be more advisable. This could of course include consecutive nights but in different hotels, if swapping across is an option / possible.

Well aware of that, which was why I posted the apparent credit despite the rules. Not bothered if it gets audited, I have additional stays anyway before the promo finishes thanks to accelerate.
