SINGAPORE: The chairman of Resorts World Sentosa has refuted media reports which quoted him as saying on Tuesday that the Universal Studios theme park would be opened by the end of next week.

He also said authorities have yet to approve the casino licence.

Even so, Singapore's first integrated resort saw thousands of visitors on Wednesday at the opening of its four hotels.

The ribbon was cut at precisely 8.18 in the morning. Eight is seen as an auspicious number because it sounds like the Chinese word for prosperity.

Kudo!! Lim Kok Thay!

Thanks for showing the little red dot the Malaysian way of doing thing!!

You have done the rightful thing.

Your late father founded the Genting business. You deserve the honour to cut the ribbon and declare the opening the resort world.

If this is the business owned by our local po lan pah singkeeporean, guess who will be cutting the ribbon? No price for guessing the right answer though.

Even before Casino was approved by the cabinet, old man gave a speech in parliament on why Genting would make an ideal partner. Old man's ex-ISD chief sits on the board of Resorts World well before the tender.

i would have thought they didn't want Genting to come into Singapore?

i recall it was a mistake of some sort that Genting managed to bid via another holding company... or was i imagining things?

When Genting announced that they would build a casino in JB, the Singapore government had no choice. If Genting could not win the bid in Singapore, they would concentrate their firepower in the JB casino.

Don't expect Main Stream Media to be honest in reporting. Honest is not their cup of tea otherwise PAP wouldn't have survived that long.

Not to worry, Spore gahment very smart can face challenge. Hypothetically if JB has a casino, it can come up with three-quarter empty pocket ruling. Batam has casinos, so MM Lee complained to Suharto who sent paratroopers from Java to conduct raids.

Yes, despite the good treatment, Genting tried to palm off part of the holdings to person not grata Stanley Ho and the Govt stepped in.

Would not surprise me ONE bit if JB has a casino.

But the current NO LICENSE for RW casino on Sentosa has nothing to do with that.

I beleive its more that the LIM family sold off ALL their shares in Genting Singapore to invest in MACAU with you know who.

Genting sleeps with the TIGER? Or is it the other way around?

So who is riding who in S'pore?

Whatever, LKT is to be applauded for refuting our PROSTITUTE PRESS and refusing to be pressurized.

The govt stepped and the agreement was rescinded. Gentings have always made a fool of this government. Its cruises ships have repeatedly breached gaming conditions, fined and warned but they can't be bothered. The fact that they hired the ex-ISD chief is telling. They have also hired the former IGP for Malaysia.

Genting know that Singapore is dependent on its revenue stream.



o ya, Mr. Ho.

so did he managed to gain a foothold here?

Ah Lim is too cute for old fart.

To-date he has nearly recovered most of his investments in Sentosa by doing one placement
of 950m Gentings S'pore shares at 70c and three rights issues, the last one at 1.13.

The one over billion of Dollars he has lost in operating Star Cruise is all recovered.

Ho Jinx should be invited for the ribbon cutting exercise.

She is living proof blood is thicker than water.

Living well and getting a fat pay cheque despite losing billions, it helps to be e mate of the paramount leader.

This is peasantpore today, sham republic riddled with dynastic politics.

The volume for the shares is very big the last week.

Either someone is buying big or someone is selling big.

BUT, one question. Where The Fuck is their CASINO LICENSE?
