RESORTS World at Sentosa Pte Ltd, a unit of Genting International Ltd, says its integrated resort may be fully completed and officially launched in 2011.
The casino, the Universal Studio Singapore theme park, the Festive Walk and four hotels (namely Hotel Michael, Maxim Towers, Hard Rock Hotel and Festive Hotel) are due to be launched in the first quarter next year.
However, the world's biggest oceanarium, Marine Life Park, the Spa Villas and the Equarius Hotel will be launched later.
"It will be launched after the first quarter of 2010, it may be end-2010, it may be 2011. We are working closely with the Singapore government on it. We will be able to have a clearer picture on the launching and opening dates after a few months," said Resorts World at Sentosa vice-president and head of communications Krist Boo during a company visit yesterday.
When completed, the integrated resort will offer six hotels comprising over 1,800 rooms, two major attractions, a casino, a six-star spa and wellness retreat, and a Maritime Xperiential Museum, among others.
Currently, the resort is under construction and is about 60 per cent completed.
It is expected to generate about 45,000 jobs, of which 10,000 people will be staff of Resorts World at Sentosa.
