FANCY A hotel general manager washing your car? Or a company CFO?
Well, motorists had that experience recently as part of a charity event.
Several bigwigs from Roxy-Pacific Holdings and a Member of Parliament sportingly washed cars on 1 June. The 10-hour event raised $44,925 from motorists, and was topped up by another $15,000 from Roxy-Pacific.

There was a charity dinner sponsored by, and hosted on June 8 at, Grand Mercure Roxy Singapore, which is owned by Roxy Pacific.
At the dinner were guest of honour, Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong, and 95 children and youths -- and their families -- from low income backgrounds.
Mr Goh presented 12 children from Geylang Serai and 3 students from Nanyang Polytechnic with a new laptop each.
Grand Mercure Roxy Singapore handed over a donation of $5,000 to Jamiyah Children’s Home.
And 60 students studying in CHIJ Katong, Ngee Ann Primary and Tao Nan School each received $250 in the form of $50 Popular Book vouchers, $100 NTUC vouchers and $100 cash.
The annual charity programme was organized by Roxy Pacific Holdings, Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel & Marine Parade Citizen Consultative Committee and co-organised by Novotel Singapore Clarke Quay, Ibis Singapore on Bencoolen, Ibis Singapore on Novena and Accor Asia Pacific Singapore.
