In 1994 it was played at the Bali Golf and Country Club, Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia; in 1995 it was played at the Emeralda Golf and Country Club, Jakarta, Indonesia; and in 1996 it was played at the Royal Hong Kong Golf Club. The prize money was A$350,000 in 1994, US$400,000 in 1995 and US$500,000 in 1996.
The 1994 event received a decent amount of media attention for the "dramatic disqualification" of leader Nick Faldo. Faldo held a six stroke lead on the 12th hole of the final round. He was then notified that he unknowingly broke a rule the previous day, removing a piece of coral from a bunker. He was immediately disqualified paving the way for playing partner Jack Kay Jr. to win the event.[3]
