 * DO NOT DELETE - it is a notable event. if it is not notable in Singapore, it would not have been discussed in Parliament and featured on TV shows like Singapore Talking and BlogTV and Channel News Asia. Also, there have been many articles which talk about the individual spas which closed. The closure of BIG Spa operators have led to the openings of many small Spa shops in the heartlands of Singapore. — Spaofvictim (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Delete The editor in question is using this article and others as part of a campaign to right great wrongs, as his user name indicates. Wikipedia is not a consumer protection site. It's possible that there's an article in here, but the current form of the article doesn't appear to be salvageable, and is definitely not neutral - .
