Busted: Genting casino slammed with fines for breaches

Fines amounted to S$530,000 as CRA found Resorts World at Sentosa guilty of reimbursing the entry levy payable by citizens and PRs to reporters covering an event.

The casino also failed to ensure footage from several cameras was retained for the period required by the Casino Regulatory Authority, according to Reuters.

CRA Chief Executive T Raja Kumar said, "The disciplinary action taken serves to remind casino operators to act responsibly to uphold the integrity of social safeguards put in place by the authorities."

Meanwhile in a statement Genting Singapore said Resorts World at Sentosa had cooperated with CRA on its investigations and has since taken steps to prevent any recurrence.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
