The name "Melaka" also spelled "Malacca," which was a short-lived variety of Tanqueray Gin from 1997--2001, flips me out because it sounds just like a Greek-language obscenity !

Now you are making me feel old. I thought it was only about 10 years ago and it was well-known that it's quite haunted (not that it bothers me - I've stayed at the GH Taipei before).

No... hotels get announced, then sometimes they happen and sometimes they don't. They are usually late.
New hotels are all done by local developers who can run out of money, not get the required building permits. A million reasons... Hyatt just signed a franchising deal and issued a press release.
You'd have to read the local newspapers or go by the building site yourself to know more.
