Operatora ziņas
Japāna – Vakajama būs pirmā prefektūra, kas nosauks savu izvēlēto operatoru

Wakayama will be the first Japanese prefecture to name its chosen IR casino operator, confirming spring as the time when a decision will be announced.
Only two groups are in the running; Suncity Group Holdings and Clairvest. The prefecture’s IR Promotion Office told IAG: “We can only answer that a decision will be made in Spring based on the examination of the selection committee. Nagasaki has just entered its second round of examinations and Yokohama is still only in the RFP stage.”
The plan is to develop a casino on an artificial island called Marina City in the Japanese prefecture of Wakayama, located east of Osaka.
Suncity has said it would spend between HK$30bn and HK$35bn (US$3.8bn to US$4.5bn) on an Integrated Resort in Wakayama, in the Kansai region, on Honshū island’s Kii Peninsula. Suncity CEO Alvin Chau said the vision was for a ‘unique project combining Wakayama Prefecture’s historical tradition, natural landscape and cultural essence.’
Birojs jau iepriekš bija paziņojis, ka vairāk nekā 20 starptautiskie IR operatori no Ziemeļamerikas, Eiropas un Āzijas ir izteikuši savu interesi ar IR forumu, kas piesaistīja operatoru grupu, tostarp Solaire, Lucien Barriere, Mohegan Gaming, Bloomberry Resorts un Galaxy Entertainment, interesi. Valdība vēlas, lai tās IR būtu 2,500 istabu viesnīca ar sanāksmju centru un izstāžu zāli. Marina City atrodas aptuveni 40 minūšu brauciena attālumā no Kansai starptautiskās lidostas un 70 minūšu brauciena attālumā no Osakas. Tās infrastruktūra jau ir labi attīstīta ar daudzām viesnīcām un atrakciju parku, kura pamatā ir viduslaiku Eiropas pilsētvides ainavas.
