Singapore's casino regulator announced on Friday that it will launch a full-scale inspection of the city-state's two casino-resorts in order to ensure that operators are complying with rules and regulations. Singapore's Resorts World at Sentosa opened last February and Las Vegas Sands' Marina Bay Sands (pictured right) opened its doors last April. Both have had a lot of financial success but last month the Casino Regulatory Authority (CRA) slapped Resorts World with S$530,000 ($427,000) in fines for various offenses such as paying entry levies for media representatives and not keeping its surveillance procedures up to standards.
"With both casinos having been in operation for more than a year, they would have by now sorted out any kinks in their operations and moved into a steady state of operations," CRA Chairman Richard Magnus said during a seminar. "It is timely then that CRA commences a full-scope inspection of the casinos this year."
Magnus said the full-scale inspections "would be on top of our regular monitoring of the casinos". It would include detailed on-site inspection of electronic gaming equipment as well as comprehensive checks on the casino operations. Singapore is very strict when it comes to keeping things up to code. Even small mistakes could lead to heavy fines.
As always, stay tuned to Casinofan for more news and updates.
