The agent told that there has never been any fireworks display on new years eve, only ever on chinese new years eve. again, i asked her how that could be since i knew people who watched it last year. once again the agend told me there has never been a fireworks display, this time with an edge to her voice that i could only interpret as condescending. i was very taken aback and decided not to question it further and left. i have never had such an attitude displayed to me ever in any dealings with any hyatt, especially not in asia at a regency club. my wife was shocked and very unhappy with the attitude. as it turned out, there WAS a large fireworks show on new years eve beginning at 11:40p. how is it even possible for a regency club concierge to not know about such a large event and then to get snooty with me for suggesting that she was wrong?!
Compared to the CNY fireworks display, the one on 31.Dec is "nothing".
