Singapore’s Resorts World Casino fined for reimbursing fees
Staff at Resorts World, operated by a subsidiary of Kuala Lumpur-based Genting Bhd., provided hotel accommodations, concert tickets and free admission to its Universal Studios theme park to about 3,400 people when they purchased or renewed the us$ 1,622 annual entry levies, the regulator said in the release today.
Singapore citizens and permanent residents are required to pay daily or yearly fees to enter the city-state’s two casinos. “Casino operators are prohibited from refunding or reimbursing the entry levy, whether directly or indirectly,” the regulator said in its release.
This is the second fine on casinos in Singapore announced within a month. Las Vegas Sands, which operates the city state’s other gaming resort, and Resorts World were fined us$ 290,007 and us$ 113,569, respectively, for “breaching social safeguard requirements” from May to October last year, the authority said August 22.
Resorts World spokeswoman Krist Boo couldn’t immediately comment.
