It’s something we can produce that nobody else can.” Sequeira is also confident that Subic Bay will benefit from the completion of new skyways in Manila which are expected to slash travel times significantly. Based on computer simulations, he says a journey by car from Solaire Resort & Casino in Entertainment City will take just 90 minutes at the speed limit, which “opens access from Manila to us in a huge way.” “Subic will grow at a very, very fast pace. We foresee it, we are not trying to budget something that is impossible. We are learning this market, but already our bases show the importance of this casino being placed here.” (L to R) Manuel Antonio Sequeira, CEO and President of Volare Grandezza, and Alexander I Betita Jr, COO of Frontier Wish International Ltd. （從左至右）Volare Grandezza首席執行官兼總裁Manuel Antonio Sequeira，和 Frontier Wish International Ltd.首席運營官Alexander I BetitaJr。 洲各地的國際博彩中介人營運商建立合作關係。其允許代理投 注的設備亦已就位。 一如克拉克，蘇比克灣同樣是自由港，可以利用某些稅收 優惠來推動該地區的新業務的發展。與克拉克不同的是，其主 要目標市場不僅限於來菲進行高爾夫球度假的韓國人（儘管其 附近亦擁有三個國際級高爾夫球場。） Sequeira表示：「正在快速成長的亞洲遊艇市場將把人們 吸引到這裏。」他補充道，蘇比克灣的一切設施都是為了提供高 端的服務體驗。 「這裏也很適合垂釣。乘船出海僅需20分鐘。我們有許多 小海灣，那裏有原始的沙灘、不通陸路、長達兩公里的無人海灘 及清澈的水域。這些是除了我們之外無人能提供的特色。」 Sequeira同時稱，有信心未來蘇比克灣將受益於馬尼拉即 將建成的高架公路，該公路有望減少人們駕車穿越交通擁堵的 馬尼拉的時間，從而大大縮短出行時間。他表示，根據電腦模擬 的結果，從馬尼拉娛樂城的晨麗娛樂場及渡假城出發，按限速 行駛只需90分鐘即可到達，這「極大地打開了馬尼拉到我們的 通道。」 「蘇比克將以非常、非常快的速度增長。這是可預見的。我 們不會為不可能的事情做預算。我們正學習了解這個市場，而 已有跡象表明在這裏建一個賭場是十分重要的。」
