Inside Asian Gaming

IAG DEC 2019年12月 亞博匯 58 “What we are lacking here in Clark as of now is a Chinese market so that will be the next thing to grow and we will be looking to bring in some of the big junkets to help with that.” One other trend Avendaño will keep an eye on is the rising engagement of slot machines since RGB International Bhd responded to a request to update Royce’s allocation to the latest Asian releases. “Two years ago around 55% of our revenue, excluding [Korean] junkets, came from gaming tables and 45% from slots,” he says. “In 2018 that reversed to 52% from slots and 48% from gaming. This year it is looking more like 56% from slots. “When I took over, slot machines contributed around Php30 million per month but now some months we get more than Php80 million from them. “We’ll have to wait and see how that translates to our new casino when it opens. At the moment our annual GGR is around Php2.8 billion to Php3 billion but our target for the new property is to at least double that.” FEATURES 長久以來,Royce的增長關鍵都是拓展國際客源市場。Avendaño 表示,雖然韓國旅客只佔賭場的訪客人數約20%,但他們為賭場帶來70 %的收入。 他解釋:「當我於2016年上任時,項目的主要客源為第三政區(中央 呂宋)。」 「我們當時吸引了很多不錯的本地玩家,但我們缺乏國際客源,所 以當時我聘用了韓文及中文傳譯員,以爭奪其他賭場正在發展的市場 版塊。」 「克拉克目前缺乏的是中國客源,這是我們下一步需要開拓發展 的目標,我們希望引入部分實力雄厚的中介人,助力我們達成目標。」 Avendaño另一密切關注的趨勢是角子機的收入貢獻,特別是RGB International應Royce的要求,將場內的角子機更新至亞洲的最新版 本。 「兩年前,不計(韓國)中介人那部分,項目的55%收入來自賭枱, 角子機只佔45%。」他指出,「2018年,這情況有所逆轉,角子機佔收入 52%,賭枱只佔48%。今年角子機更有望佔項目收入的 56%。」 「當我上任時,角子機的收入大約每月3,000萬披索,但目前某些 月份角子機收入可超過8,000萬披索。」 「我們正觀望當新賭場開業後,這情況會變成怎樣。目前,我們的 博彩毛收入約28億披索至30億披索,但我們的目標是新賭場落成後,總 收入至少翻一倍。」
