While Chairman Lim Kok Thay is Genting Singapore’s conductor, Tan Hee Teck is a key player. Tan secured the license for RWS, the group’s financial flagship, with SG$2.5 billion (US$1.8 million) in revenue and SG$1.2 billion in EBITDA last year, the latter nearly three times greater than EBITDA at Malaysia's Resorts World Genting. Tan was named RWS CEO at the start of 2007, three years before the resort opened on Singapore’s designated leisure island. In addition to running RWS with 550 gaming tables, 2,400 gaming machines,1,600 guest rooms across six hotels, Southeast Asia’s only Universal Studios theme park, a water park and other attractions, Tan leads Genting’s efforts to win a Japan license, likely offering a similar integrated resort template. Japan has taken on great significance with group revenue squeezed from COVID-19. Tan’s bearing as a high level Singapore technocrat reportedly plays well in Japan. Resorts World Sentosa should become a more compelling enticement for Japan with its SG$4.5 billion expansion, dubbed RWS 2.0, including new Universal Studios attractions, a dinner theater experience, aquarium expansion, up to 1,100 more hotel rooms, and a “waterfront lifestyle complex” touted as the “centerpiece” of Singapore’s Greater Southern Waterfront initiative. However, RWS 2.0 is being delayed for redesign “to adapt to the post COVID-19 environment,” GENS wrote in its first half Singapore stock exchange filing. Shut down for the entire second quarter, RWS reported a first half 2020 loss of SG$117 million and reopened on a limited basis from July 1. A travel bubble with Malaysia would help, since RWS traditionally welcomes busloads of day-trippers crossing the causeway. 聖淘沙名勝世界 在新加坡排名第二,僅次於濱海灣金沙,但無疑是雲頂的全球 博彩佈局中排名第一。若說主席林國泰是雲頂新加坡的總指揮,那麼陳啟德則 無疑是首席演奏者。 過去一年,在陳啟德的帶領下,聖淘沙名勝世界以收入25億新加坡元 (180萬美元),EBITDA為12億新加坡元的成績確保了其新加坡賭牌及集團 財政旗艦的地位。聖淘沙名勝世界的EBITDA幾乎是該集團於馬來西亞起家的 旗艦綜合度假村雲頂世界EBITDA的近三倍。陳啟德於2007年初出任聖淘沙 名勝世界的行政總裁,三年之後該度假村在新加坡指定的休閒島落地開業。 除了運營擁有550張賭枱、2400台角子機、6家酒店近1600間客房、東南 亞唯一一個環球影城主題樂園、一個水上樂園及其他娛樂設施的聖淘沙名勝 世界之外,陳啟德還正率領團隊競標日本IR牌照的工作,預期將複製類似聖淘 沙名勝世界的綜合度假村模式。由於收入因應新冠疫情縮水,日本對該集團 尤其具有重大意義。據報道,陳啟德的新加坡高管背景在日本頗為受到歡迎。 聖淘沙名勝世界斥資45億新元擴建的聖淘沙名勝世界2.0計劃,或對日 本更具吸引力。該項目計劃擴建環球影城及海洋館、打造沉浸式冒險劇場餐 廳、及增加1100間酒店客房,力求打造一個「海濱生活方式綜合體」,成為新加 坡未來南部海濱地區的活力變革之旅的核心。但是,雲頂新加坡在上半年提交 至新加坡證券交易所的一份文件中寫道,「聖淘沙名勝世界2.0項目將因重新 設計而推遲,以配合後新冠疫情時期的環境。」 濱海灣金沙在整個第二季度都處於關閉狀態,其報告稱2020年上半年 共虧損1.17億新加坡元,自7月1日期開始有限度的重新營業。由於傳統上聖淘 沙名勝世界迎來的多為自馬來西亞過境而來的一日遊遊客,因而其與馬來西 亞達成的旅行氣泡有望對此有所幫助。
