What I have heard is that the reason the Mandarin still haven’t renovated is that their 25 year land lease with Ayala is about to end and they have not gotten any word of lease extension so renovation is on hold until a new lease contract is signed.

A friend of mine (Dutch guy who was Mandarin’s Executive Pastry Chef, now with Crown Casino here in Melbourne) was talking about a former GM whose wife was a great meddler. As in pakialamerang Pinay. Wonder what happened to them.
