Optional affiliated hotels\/resorts are only available through reciprocal arrangement with other Vacation Clubs in Malaysia and overseas and may be added\/ changed\/ removed from time to time due to renewal\/ termination of reciprocal arrangement by either party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These reciprocal arrangements are similar to a barter trade exchange where partnering vacation clubs come to an agreement to allow their members to access the other partner\u2019s home-based properties on an agreed number of nights.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike the home-based inventories stated in the Prospectus, there is no specific allotment reserved for our reciprocal partners.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<div class=\"faqs\"><div class=\"single_faq\">\n                    <h3>Would the number of reciprocal hotel selections be changed?<\/h3>\n                    <div class=\"answer\"><p style=\"text-align: justify;text-justify: inter-word;\">Yes, it may be changed, removed or new reciprocal properties added.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;text-justify: inter-word;\">Some of the destinations have been removed because we received complaints from members of their deteriorating quality.

Unfortunately, at times there is a big disparity of the number of nights we owe to our partners as more of our members travelled to their properties rather than them coming over to Malaysia to stay in our properties. Hence it would be difficult to get rooms at some of the destinations. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;text-justify: inter-word;\">SGI VC members who are interested to travel overseas are strongly encouraged to book through Interval International, our affiliated partner who provides an exchange network of nearly 3,200 quality resorts in over 80 nations.
