Resorts World Cruises celebrates Lunar New Year with seniors on Genting Dream

Wednesday, February 7, 2024

Resorts World Cruises has teamed up with the Singapore Red Cross (SRC) to organize a special Lunar New Year celebration for seniors aboard the Genting Dream. As the year of the dragon begins, approximately 50 seniors and volunteers from SRC’s ElderAid program were warmly welcomed by Resorts World Cruises’ shore staff and ship crew. The event featured a traditional ‘Lo Hei’ session, where guests participated in the ritual of tossing ‘yu sheng’ for prosperity and good health.

In addition to the festive traditions, guests enjoyed a delightful high tea and a variety of entertaining activities. The ship’s talented ballroom duo, Anton & Alina, treated everyone to a captivating dance performance, while the in-house band, Trinity Trio, serenaded the audience with popular classics. Crew members and shore staff also joined in the fun, engaging with the seniors through dancing and karaoke singing, creating cherished moments of interaction and camaraderie.

“On behalf of Resorts World Cruises and the crew of Genting Dream, we are honoured to have
this opportunity to celebrate the Lunar New Year with our new senior friends and volunteers
under Singapore Red Cross. As a cruise line that is headquartered in Singapore and
homegrown in Asia, we are deeply committed to serving and enriching our communities in
every way possible,” said Mr. Michael Goh, President of Resorts World Cruises. “We look
forward to future CSR initiatives and collaborations with Singapore Red Cross, as well as more
charities and non-profit organizations,” he added.
Ms Eileen Cher, Assistant Secretary General (Corporate), Singapore Red Cross said “Going
onboard a cruise has always been on the top of our seniors’ wishlist, and we are very grateful
to Resorts World Cruises for making this happen for the seniors cared for by the Singapore
Red Cross. Our humanitarian efforts are made possible by the strong support of partners like
Resorts World Cruises, and we look forward to collaborating across more areas such as
community engagement and fundraising.”
