Macao’s full reopening is the main focus:
In addition to the above-mentioned statement, the company said in an Oct. 16 announcement that “our recent focus has been on the full reopening of Macau, the construction of the recently launched Phase 3 and Phase 4,” listing the official return of the Macao regulatory market as a whole following the citywide lifting of COVID-19 restrictions and the expansion of Cotai’s leading Galaxy Macao resort안전한 카지노사이트
GGRAsia reached Galaxy Ent. for comment following Philippine media reports that politician and businessman Albee Benitez on Sunday welcomed the company back to discussions on a $500 million Boracay project. The businessman’s situation was through the Philippine media, pleading with the main Macao operator to reconsider linking him with the company he founded to jointly build the aforementioned casino resort. In response, he said, “It’s just a matter of raising the level of comfort enough to come back,” according to the media
Galaxy NT initially showed interest:
In addition, Benitez Market in Bacolod City, located in the northern Philippines, is affiliated with DigiPlus Interactive Corporation, formerly known as Leisure and Resort World Corporation. However, the plea did not come out of the blue, as Galaxy showed interest in the idea six years ago in 2017. Relatedly, Benitez retired from managing DigiPlus as early as 2021.
According to the Philippine Daily Inquirer report on Benitez’s latest comments, “Since Galaxy Entertainment’s customers in Macau are mostly Chinese, a factor in diplomatic relations between China and the Philippines is at play. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s administration recognized the value of bringing a global casino operator to the Philippines. Because it has the resources and the dollars to take the country higher.”
Recorded:
When the Boracay project was first required to obtain the necessary licenses from the Philippine regulator, in July 2018, the then head of state Rodrigo Duterte’s administration said, “New casino construction will not be allowed on the island.” Also during the same year, but in April, the national government ordered Boracay to be temporarily closed for environmental cleanup.
