Las Vegas Sands’ chairman and CEO Rob Goldstein has said the company is in conversations with an unnamed country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Macau.-\u00a0Rob Goldstein<\/strong>, Las Vegas Sands’ chairman and CEO has told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the company is in talks about a future integrated resort development somewhere in Asia. He’s suggested the development would be a large resort on the scale of Marina Bay Sands<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He said: “I don\u2019t want to say where, but we\u2019ve had some rather interesting conversations with a major country there that has reached out to us.\u00a0It\u2019s proprietary, but we\u2019re looking to build something of scale much like Marina Bay Sands.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n He added: “We\u2019re building a new one hopefully starting next year, our second Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, a fully integrated Phase 2 of our Phase 1.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n The country we know it definitely won’t be is Japan. “From our perspective, we could never get it to move along to our satisfaction, so we packed up and called it a day,” Goldstein said about LVS’s interest in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, Goldstein said LVS has finished work at The Londoner Macau<\/a>. In February, LVS completed the\u00a0sale of its Las Vegas casino portfolio for US$6.25bn<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to private equity firm Apollo Global Management and VICI Properties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Las Vegas Sands’ chairman and CEO Rob Goldstein has said the company is in conversations with an unnamed country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":176,"featured_media":23787,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"is_press_release":false,"is_interview":false,"is_opinion":false,"focusai_summary":"Las Vegas Sands' CEO, Rob Goldstein, confirmed the company is in discussions with an unnamed major Asian country regarding a potential large-scale integrated resort development, akin to Marina Bay Sands.
