Shocking news

Oh no... Christopher Norton leaves FS.... for Equinox! Not sure if this gives the Equinox hotel project more credibility..
Wonder who will take over from Clerc now as President Americas, as he was just about to take that position. They need someone good in that region urgently.

if he is joining Equinox, things may not be great at FS, but he did join Equinox..
no credibility for Equinox. purely hard product / marketing not soft product.
(these days, far too many things are only marketing/branding. oh well.)

Kuala Lumpur
I haven't seen any mention in this thread of KL, but just about 100 meters from the IC in KL, I saw a construction project for the FS KL, hotel, residences, shops. etc. And the crews were busy working on a Sunday! I'd guess another 5 or 6 months, but I've not seen any news about this.
