A junket operator out of Macau is making moves to expand its operations. The Guangdong Group told GGRAsia that it is going to offer its VIP gaming service to Naga 2, the latest addition to the NagaWorld Complex in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. That project is promoted by NagaCorp. Ltd out of Hong Kong.
According to GGRAsia, Guangdong indicated that it expects to launch a trial stage of its new operations sometime this month. The service is expected to be run through a partnership with additional investors and will offer ten gaming tables.
The junket operator has 13 VIP gaming clubs in Macau and has been leading a charge to expand internationally. The company’s CEO, Flora Pu, adds, “The group’s services have been expanded to Philippines, Jeju, Cambodia, U.S., U.K. and other destinations in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe. We will continue to actively explore further potential partnerships with casino operators and collaborators in a bid to enhance the proportion of earnings from overseas markets for the group.”
NagaCorp is the only license holder that offers casinos in or around Phnom Penh. Its NagaWorld property, which is now called Naga 1, opened in 2006 and Naga 2, the most recent addition, opened in November of last year.
