"Introducing an Android app was critical to our global mobile strategy. Our guests value connectivity and convenience, and many of Shangri-La's 2.2 million Golden Circle loyalty programme members are Android users, particularly those in mainland China, where 33 of our 75 hotels are located," said Wee Kee Ng, director of corporate loyalty and partner marketing of Shangri-La International Hotel Management Ltd.
