Ku De Ta, the posh restaurant-bar-club on the rooftop of the iconic Marina Bay Sands (MBS) hotel, can keep its name.
The High Court on Monday dismissed a trademark suit brought by the partners of the Bali beach club of the same name, who wanted to stop the Singapore club from using the name.
Justice Judith Prakash, in a 91-page written judgment, found that the Bali club did not have any goodwill in Singapore in 2004 because it was not well-known then, when the Ku De Ta trademark was registered here.
That meant that the owners of the Bali club could not prevent others from registering Ku De Ta as a trademark here.
