Its subsidiary Genting New York LLC (Genting NY) has won the bid to develop and operate a video lottery facility at the Aqueduct Racetrack in New York with a proposal that includes US$380 million (RM1.2 billion) as an upfront licensing fee.
New York Lottery announced its evaluation committee had unanimously recommended to the New York governor that Genting NY be awarded the aqueduct racino project.
The recommendation will have to be approved by the New York governor, the temporary president of the New York State Senate and the speaker of the New York State Assembly before the video lottery licence can be awarded.
Genting NY would work closely with the relevant parties, including the operator of the Aqueduct Racetrack, the New York Racing Association, and expected to open the preliminary phase of Resorts World New York six months after the award of the licence.
The video lottery facility, to be called Resorts World New York, would contain 4,500 electronic slot machines or video lottery terminals.
Resorts World New York would include a grand entrance featuring a three-storey atrium with a water show, enclosed skyway pedestrian bridge linking to the mass transit system of New York, 450-seat two-storey festive casual dining promenade and parking facilities for 7,000 cars, including a 2,200-car garage.
Industry observers say the state may approve the bid sooner rather than later given its dire financial state, but there could be further hiccups although a state judge had earlier dismissed the lawsuit by Aqueduct Entertainment Company (AEC), which was the previous winning bidder whose licence application was later denied. AEC planned to seek an injunction that would block final approval by state leaders.
GenM’s proposal had entailed a phased development process that would begin with the opening of a preliminary phase of the facility equipped with 1,600 video lottery terminals six months after approval.
GenM had committed to invest a capital expenditure (capex) of US$41 million within the first 10 years of operations for planned improvements and a minimum of 0.5% of gross gaming revenue for maintenance capital expense.
历史不应该偏颇!

你不敢想象有些国家在历史教育课本上,为了迷惑人民什么都敢寫,
1) 韓国在历史课本述说有五至八千年的文化,原来他们把神话故事的传说当是祖先,大家可从网上瞭解一下。
2) 日本把二战期间侵略的历史也从未在他们的历史書上出现过,还把战犯供起来参拜。
以此类推,中国把神话故事的人物搬出来,什么万年天帝、千年老妖、道尊、...
