SINGAPORE - City Square Mall has cancelled an Earth Hour event originally planned for Saturday, March 28.
In a statement to the media, a spokesperson said the cancellation comes as a mark of respect to the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, who passed away on March 23.
Yesterday, the Government declared a period of National Mourning from March 23 to March 29.
City Square's decision is in line with WWF-Singapore's decision to cancel its main Earth Hour event on the same day.
Nevertheless, lights on the outside of the building and non-essential lighting will be switched off from 8.30pm - 9.30pm.
