KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 28): Genting Bhd’s Resorts World Genting said it will close two of its three casinos effective Wednesday.

The gaming group posted the announcement on the Resorts World Genting website, stating that Genting Casino 1 (Circus Palace) and Genting Casino 2 (Hollywood) will be closed with effect from Wednesday.

The notice advised customers to instead proceed to SkyCasino for gaming, with a shuttle service to be provided to SkyCasino between 10am and midnight daily.

Resorts World said in a statement that the closure of certain sections of its casinos would be temporary to facilitate improvements to its facilities.

“In our ongoing effort to improve our operational efficiency and enhance the gaming and entertainment experience for our guests, we continuously upgrade our facilities,” it said.

Resorts World added that its gaming operations continue to operate as usual. However, the company did not provide a timeline for when the upgrade works will be completed.
