SINGAPORE (AFP) - Up to 2,000 supervisors who work in shops, bars, restaurants and tourist attractions will receive the four-hour training, the Singapore Tourism Board said in a statement Friday.
The training is "specially designed to refresh participants on the finer points of providing good customer service as well as provide essential information on the race" and related events, it said.
Singapore is to host a Grand Prix street circuit race for the first time on September 28. It will also be the sport's first race held at night.
The government is hoping the event will boost its tourism coffers by 100 million dollars (70.6 million US) a year.
